Previously, we analyzed whether the premium AI version of Duolingo (Duolingo Max) was worth it. Today, we’ll see how to use the free version of Duolingo more effectively.

Duolingo has helped millions of people get started with a new language. Its simplicity, intuitive design and teaching methods made learning words in a foreign language as easy as playing a videogame.

However, when it comes to developing the necessary skills to learn a new language, Duolingo isn’t enough. In fact, participants in an interview fully agreed that Duolingo would not be good for learning an entirely new language of which one has no knowledge.

I felt the same way after using Duolingo. Although I memorized tons of words, I didn’t know how to use them properly. But not everything is wrong with Duolingo. You just need to find its weak points and complement them with other tools and methods.

These are the methods and apps that I use to complement Duolingo.
