Nice! Deutsche Welle has a ton of German material: http://www.dw.de/learn-german/german-courses/s-2547
Am i a big enough nerd that i could actually understand about half of this without having to look it up?
Anyone her follow through on their language learning goals? Right now I'm working on Russian, Spanish, and French.
How the hell did I miss this before? And I've upped my Pashto (kind of forced to) and started learning Korean (for me) and Latin (b/c my 7y/o is learning it in school, and I can't fathom not knowing something my 7 y/o knows. So we're learning together)
My daughter is taking Spanish now, so my wife searched for an app we could all use to help her--and the rest of us as well--learn/practice. Went with "Duolingo", and we're all enjoying it. Two days into class, my daughter found out that her homework is to use Duolingo. Sweet! Funny part about this, after my wife, daughter and I all started using it, my son (who's 11 and doesn't have a phone) started asking if he could do it too. So we put it on a tablet for him. At this point, being able to play on Duolingo is his reward for finishing all his daily tasks/responsibilities. Imagine that--he'll clean his room faster for the privilege of learning a foreign language. Weird, huh?
That is awesome! I am using Duolingo for Russian, as well as Pimsleur. For Spanish I am using Glossika which is a sort of brute force listen and repeat course for learners who need to activate their passive knowledge to gain fluency. I've been messing around with Spanish too long, so I've been forcing myself to do something which is kind of tedious in order to make some progress. Sort of a last ditch effort to gain fluency.
