Comprehensive starting tool – Babbel – Learn German Review

I am using the app to learn German and have not been to the website. Overall its pretty good. I like the combination of verbal and visual. It does an excellent job of building your ability to spell. It starts with matching words or phrases, then you pick the words out of collections of letters (spaces are appropriately placed), then you need to type the words on your own. Well done. The user needs to repeat lessons a lot in order for it to sink in but that holds true for learning anything new (at least for me). My only criticism is, I think there should be more reviewing. After every 5 lessons or so maybe a paragraph that puts all the words together. We learn new words a few at a time, which is great! I know that in a particular lesson there is only one of a couple of verbs that is an option and that really helps to understand when to use different words. I think it would be good to put more new words together to better understand a more global usage of those collections of words. Overall, its a great learning tool if you are new to a language.
