How good is Duolingo after completing?
Where you stand after finishing a Duolingo course. An average Duolingo tree introduces you to about 2,000 words. It should be more than enough to get a good sense of how the language works and hold most everyday conversations. Not bad for a free online course.
Will you be fluent after finishing Duolingo?
You can learn as many words or sentences as you want, but until you’re able to have a conversation with another person, you’ll never be fluent. Or, according to the CEFR model, you won’t even be halfway there. For that reason alone, learning a language with an app should be a starting point, not the end.
Will Duolingo get you to B2?
At Duolingo, we’re developing our courses to get you to a level called B2, at which you can get a job in the language you’re studying. Reaching that kind of proficiency requires dedication, varied practice opportunities, and a lot of time.
Can Duolingo take you to B1?
The general consensus is duolingo will bring you to a A2-B1 level of fluency (check out the above discussion to see what that means). I would agree that your reading/writing skills will be higher than you listen/speaking skills. Of course all this will depend on how much you practice and what other resources you use.
How long does it take to finish a Learning Tree on Duolingo?
After months (or longer) of trying, you finally finish a learning tree on Duolingo. It’s happened for me twice. A year ago I finished French, and just a couple months ago I finished German.
How can I keep improving after Duolingo?
If you want to keep improving after Duolingo and get the best return on your time, you’ll need to get a little creative and customize your learning experience to match your goals and needs. This article will give you some actionable ideas to help you build your own post-Duolingo strategy that will propel you towards fluency.
Does Duolingo teach you how to read?
Finishing a Duolingo course might teach you how to process the written language on some basic level, but going through thousands of short and unrelated sentences doesn’t really have much in common with actual reading. This is why you should develop your own reading practice. Many learners find it surprisingly difficult.
What level of French should I learn after Duolingo?
Having finished a Duolingo course, you should probably start with something more advanced like “French 4” or “French 5”. Let’s be honest: if you’re serious about learning vocabulary, you should develop your own flashcard deck at some point. Setting it up takes some time and effort, but once you sort it all out, you’ll actually start saving time.
