Sentences should have gotten longer and more complex with time.Īnyway, the TL DR is that Lingodeer teaches a lot of new stuff and is easy to follow so it’s a good start for low-intermediate learners. Furthermore, they could have done a better job of integrating past grammar points into future sentences. You don’t pass regular reviews, you don’t go on to the next section. What they could have done is to include the revision as a mandatory part of the program. You learn something once, revise it once and then you don’t see it again. But their revision system is extremely weak and boring – and completely optional too, so the info is all in one year and out another. They introduce concepts gradually and clearly and I didn’t have a hard time learning those things in the first place. I said “I learned nothing!” in the topic title, but it’s more accurate to say “I retained nothing!” I know in my head that I learned a lot of different grammar points and some new vocabulary, but I don’t remember most of them. So I did do the whole 100% of the Lingodeer Korean course. I guess the other good thing is that the deer mascot is cute <3. That’s the main good point about Lingodeer. This came in super handy because I can learn new things while I’m on the go or waiting in the doctor’s office and stuff. The best part is that you can download the whole course and use it offline for free, which you can’t do with Duolingo or Memrise without paying. I don’t have a good experience with Duolingo for other languages, but Lingodeer got great reviews from people who tried it so I thought I would give it a go. it’s boring… Anyway, it’s a topic for another day.Īfter quitting-ish TTMIK I heard about both Duolingo Korean and Lingodeer. Thanks to Memrise my retention of the little I learned is extremely good so it’s worth pursuing but….

I’m still trying to get back in the saddle with that. Yah… We’ll talk about that some other time. I got bored around level 2 and stopped doing it. I mentioned aaaages ago that I was learning Korean on and off with Talk to me in Korean.
