Why people look for a Babbel alternative
- Almost everything needs a subscription. Only the first lesson of each course is free, so it is hard to learn with Babbel without paying.
- The course sets the vocabulary. Lessons are well built, but the words you need for your job, your trip or your favourite show may come much later or not at all.
- Little reading at your level. To make words stick you need to meet them again in texts, and short lesson dialogues are not always enough.
Can you use it together with Babbel?
