Even without premium, Busuu offered valuable tools if you want to learn a language. Premium costs about $6 per month for a year. For example, Busuu says if I study three times a week for 10 minutes a day, I'll be pretty fluent in my chosen language in about eight months. From there, you set a daily study goal, and if you subscribe to the premium plan, it creates a study plan so you'll reach your goal by a set date. When you sign up for Busuu, you select the language you want to learn, and the app helps you determine how advanced you are with it and why you want to learn it, and to what level. I also subscribe to PremiumВ for $7 per month which includes an ad-free experience, downloadable lessons, and unlimited 'health.' In the app, you can access resources such as Duolingo Stories, which are short audio stories that allow you to check your comprehension skills as you go. I like Duolingo's user-friendly layout, and the 'streak' feature, which motivates you to keep going by tracking the number of days you've reached your point goal. Practice the skill again and it'll repair itself. To make sure you don't get rusty on the basics, even if you've 'mastered' a skill by reaching a higher level, the skill can still 'shatter' if you don't review it consistently. I use Duolingo to practice Spanish and German. The app doesn't restrict how many languages you can try to learn at the same time (personally, I think two is a good maximum if you want to retain anything). As a regular Duolingo user, I enjoy the app's colorful interface and short, game-like exercises.
