I would use the app on the ride to school (I wasn’t driving at the time).
What was your study schedule like? How much did you practice each day? My favorite feature is definitely Duolingo Stories, because of how much the Stories simulate real-life.
What did you like about the learning experience? What was your favorite feature? Then later, the fact that I could get one of my Spanish credits without taking Spanish I motivated me to continue studying with the app and that became my primary goal… to test out of the easier Spanish course. My initial goal when downloading the app was just to take Spanish lessons during COVID. Choosing Spanish was an easy decision for me because many people speak the language where I live in Houston. I began using Duolingo because I saw an advertisement and knew it was free to use. Tell us more about why you started using Duolingo! Why did you choose Spanish, and what motivated you to stick with it? Despite never taking a formal Spanish course (remember, he wasn’t able to take the first level of Spanish!), Colton passed the exam and moved ahead to Spanish II! That’s right: Consistent practice allowed Colton to bypass an entire year of Spanish in school and place in the level appropriate to his skills. Given his consistent Duolingo use for two years, Colton was up for the challenge! He found out that he could get the necessary credits by taking the Credit by Examination (CBE) test, a 4-hour Spanish exam that covered writing and listening skills, as well as multiple-choice questions about the language. But due to the specifics of his class schedule, he was unable to take Spanish I alongside his friends, and was faced with the task of trying to test out of Spanish I so he could join his friends in Spanish II. He picked up Duolingo during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and studied Spanish for fun. Whether it’s a successful trip abroad, to meeting new people, to developing a deeper appreciation for culture, everyone’s learning journey is different! And we were so excited to hear from a learner in Texas whose Duolingo lessons helped them get ahead in school!Ĭolton Holiday, 15, is a 10th grade student at Northland Christian School in Houston, TX. We love hearing real stories about how Duolingo helped learners reach their language goals.
