Good for beginners & advanced! – Drops: Language Learning Games Review

This is the only vocab learning app that I’ve found to be a good multi-tool for beginners and advanced speakers! I originally downloaded it at first to learn Russian vocabulary, in which I’m essentially a total beginner. I soon realized you can easily switch between many languages, and as a C1 level German speaker, thought I’d see what they had to offer there. Because of the way Drops organizes lessons into themes, I’m able to learn/re-learn vocabulary for subjects that I didn’t learn or have since forgotten in my path to fluency (like specific flower types, elements of biology, etc.), without first having to suffer through beginner’s vocabulary. Although there’s always a few words I already knew, I have, notably, still learned at least one new word from each 5-minute lesson in new subjects (which is a victory to me) or relearned words which I only previously glossed over in my studies. I’ve also found it completely worth it to pay for the full version of the app in order to have unlimited learning sessions, which is a lot coming from me, as I do not purchase apps as a general rule. Thank you for giving me a small foundation on which to continue my Russian studies and for improving my advanced German skills one word at a time! :)
