Lots of good examples that you would use in real life. > > **Cons**: What I like least is probably the cost. It can be a bit costly, but in the end I think that it is worth the cost. > > Overall Duolingo is amazing as a fun way to learn a new language. Teaches stuff you would use out in the world. ----- ### "Duolingo makes learning a language fun\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jessica** | *13 May 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Duolingo makes learning fun, it turns the process into a game\! I love the variety of personal challenges, friendly competitions, benchmarks and rewards. They offer different ways to learn, combining reading, writing, and speaking flawlessly. I have learned more language in 4 months with Duolingo that I did with a year of a personal tutor. > > **Cons**: The free version plays like many pay to play games where you can only accomplish so much before you either have to make a purchase to move forward or wait a set amount of time. I did end up purchasing the year package to avoid these breaks in learning. > > It has been an incredible experience and I am so glad I decided to give it a try. I am learning quickly and look forward to learning. The platform makes learning a fun challenge, a game you want to win. It does well with reviewing material, taking things at a reasonable pace. I have only been using for about 4 months and I have learned as much if not more than I did in my years of language classes in high school\! ----- ### "Still good for language learning" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *27 June 2026* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The gamification and daily check ins really push the learning of a language forward. I like the variety of exercises and the modules progression is well done. The cost of the subscription is okay and I like the family plan. Variety of languages is a big plus. > > **Cons**: I don't like which way it goes with clearly AI solutions. There are mistakes, I've lost trust and I'm not sure if the language I learn is in correct form. Another thing I disliked last year was the change of life/energy feature, but that hurts more the free plan users. > > Overall Duolingo is fine for me, it pushed my learning and helped me in spoken English. However competition does not sleep, and the AI implementation in Duolingo is something I've seen people started to dislike. It is interesting how they implemented Math, Music and Chess courses. I've tried them, but it still need more improvements. ----- ### "Duolingo teachs basics but don't expect to become fluent" — 3.0/5 > **Gene** | *8 October 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the fact that it has gamified language learning. It makes it fun. I like the exercises and I like the timed exercises as they push you to think fast. > > **Cons**: Some of the sentence constructs don't make sense. And I feel that there are too many aspects pushing to buy the paid subscription vs. the free subscription. I realize their goal is to make money for the product provided. > > Overall, I am using it to learn words and phrases but I do not feel I will learn the language, but rather bits and pieces. ----- ### "Outstanding Duolingo" — 5.0/5 > **Reagan** | *27 April 2026* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that there is a great value for money and customer support with it, and I never have any bugs or issues. I love that it teaches a wide vocabulary and grammar for any language you want to learn, as well as promoting student and teacher interaction\! There is also great security that goes along with it as well. > > **Cons**: There was nothing that I disliked about Duolingo. I have been a user of Duolingo for years\! It is absolutely wonderful\! > > Overall I have had an amazing and exciting experience with Duolingo, it was the easiest way for me to learn a second language and it comes in handy all the time. I love that it keeps a streak for you and it gives you an incentive to work on your learning each day. Amazing app and extremely user friendly\! ----- Page: 1 / 40\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/210401/duolingo-for-schools?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/210401/duolingo-for-schools) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | ----- ## Structured Data
