It is a free foreign language course. You can learn Spanish, Dutch, German, Italian, Irish, French and Portuguese. My younger children are taking Spanish. In each lesson they are learning new words and how to place the words in sentences. With Duolingo you will learn how to speak and write the language. You will see words, hear words, and have the opportunity to speak the language. The activities involve translating Spanish into English and English into Spanish. Other times you will choose the correct picture. My children have enjoyed using the program. In the short time that they have used the Duolingo they have increased their Spanish vocabulary. The link below will take you to the duolingo website so you can learn more.
