    I have been learning on Hebrew Pod 101 and I am astounded at the breadth and depth of the service. There are so many different dimensions to help the student learn vocabulary and grammar. Many examples are given and the service is careful to teach the subtleties of meaning in many words. There is a very wide range of lessons from elementary to advanced with plenty of opportunity for the student to tailor the work to his/her own ways of learning. It's also possible to interact with teachers which can help advance one's learning. In a word, it is a great language course for me; it's worth far more than the price.

    I like this because it sends me a new word every day so keeps prompting me to learn. I also like that there is a lot of spoken Czech as that is better than always just learning to read. This way I learn to listen and hear the Czech word too. I am pleased with it

    I just started and... It's not what I expected. I thought it would help me learn a lot, but it didn't really help. I don't really like the app. The app is not that helpful. I want to give you a warning and say it's not helpful. I don't really know what to tell you to warn you about the app. It's a wast of time.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Forced to Pay - Not Free
    Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    It is disappointing that you can't do any lessons without purchasing the full software from the website. One week is free, but there's no way to advance unless you register an account (and pay). They call themselves a free app but you literally cannot use it unless you pay for the program - that's not really living up to a "free app" description.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Now you really can study anywhere, anytime
    Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    Makes learning much easier. I was struggling because I don’t have internet access where I volunteer. I tried downloading a lesson to study when work was slow or during breaks. I often could not find the lesson because the lesson and file title were different. Then I still had to download the audio. In this app, you can download the lesson and the audio together. They don’t have strange titles. You can go right to the lesson you want to study or review. This is so much easier. Now even though I don’t have internet the lessons are downloaded and it feels the same as having internet. This is truly a wonderful age in which we live.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great app. I recommend it.
    Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    This is a great app. I'm learning Norwegian with it and I really like it. The app is free, but you have to pay for a subscription to use it with any language. Yes, that's a bummer, but I was already paying the subscription to NorwegianClass101.com, and it was accepted through the app, so win for me.

    The male and female instructors do a great job pronouncing everything and there are some great non-language learning sections too, like the history of the language and things like that.
