Powerful and inexpensive software, as well as free online videos and courses, can help you learn a language without leaving your home. Taking an in-person language course is often impractical and expensive, although I recommend you take some one-to-one classes if you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, people learn best when they use a variety of methods, so you should complement your courses, online lessons, and real-life experiences with apps and resources that offer different kinds of learning experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With today&#8217;s technology, it&#8217;s so easy to improve your accent, meet language partners, and expand your vocabulary, all with apps on your mobile phone.

href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/lingopie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LingoPie<\/a> is one of my favorite resources for practicing my Spanish. But I will say that it&#8217;s probably more suitable for students with advanced levels of Spanish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lingopie is a language learning app that uses real TV shows and movies to help you learn a new language. The goal is to make language learning as easy as watching your favorite television show. The value of Lingopie is in the real TV shows and movies in Spanish, which are accompanied by transcriptions and translations, as well as forward and back buttons and the ability to slow down or speed up the shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can watch the shows without subtitles or with them; you can slow down or speed up the show&#8217;s pace, and you can skip forward or back through the show.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/lingopie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1386\" height=\"841\" src=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/lingopie.jpg\" alt=\"lingopie\" class=\"wp-image-2340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/lingopie.jpg 1386w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/lingopie-300x182.jpg 300w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/lingopie-1024x621.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/lingopie-768x466.jpg 768w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/lingopie-150x91.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1386px) 100vw, 1386px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Maybe you want to work on speech patterns, Spanish vocabulary, or Spanish grammar. With Lingopie, you can create your own personal language learning plan by saving sections of shows as flashcards to review later \u2014and all while watching shows that keep you entertained!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One feature I love is the ability to search the entire TV show lexicon for particular Spanish phrases or words and then watch episodes that include them. For example, I might search for &#8220;ingeniero&#8221; and then get the translation, an audio version by a Spanish speaker, and sections of show episodes that include the word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There aren&#8217;t any other Spanish learning websites that use this method of teaching so I recommend you check it out. There are shows from all over Latin America and Spain. And it works great on mobile devices too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The yearly price is a steal at less than $70 a year. That&#8217;s a lot of entertainment and education for 12 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New features include private Spanish lessons with teachers, and a Kids section, sort of like Netflix&#8217;s Children&#8217;s programming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, you can&#8217;t download shows for offline use so forget about using the app on a plane or if you&#8217;re out of Wifi\/Mobile cell range.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/lingopie-review\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"2515\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">detailed review of Lingopie here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"italki\"><\/span>iTalki<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/italki-spanish-teachers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" src=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/italki-teachers-one-on-one-lessons.jpg\" alt=\"italki teachers one on one lessons\" class=\"wp-image-2299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/italki-teachers-one-on-one-lessons.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/italki-teachers-one-on-one-lessons-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/italki-teachers-one-on-one-lessons-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/italki-teachers-one-on-one-lessons-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/italki-teachers-one-on-one-lessons-150x79.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve been <a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/italki-homepage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">using iTalki<\/a> for years and it&#8217;s probably the best way to quickly find and start learning with a native speaker of your chosen Spanish dialect. In my case, I look for Argentine speakers and there are almost 400 private tutors on the platform.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Language learning platform iTalki connects students with native speakers and teachers. Students can communicate directly with teachers through Zoom, Skype, or iTalki&#8217;s built-in tools. There are teachers available from every Spanish-speaking country and for all levels of Spanish learners.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/italki-homepage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/finding-tutors-in-italki.jpg\" alt=\"Finding Tutors In Italki\" class=\"wp-image-1666\" width=\"710\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/finding-tutors-in-italki.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/finding-tutors-in-italki-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/finding-tutors-in-italki-1024x739.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/finding-tutors-in-italki-768x554.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The opportunity to learn with native speakers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A plethora of teachers to choose from<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tutors for every budget<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Community tutoring for extra practice<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A trusted platform with security<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out this <a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/italki-review\/\">full iTalki review<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/italki-homepage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Try iTalki here<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"preply\"><\/span>Preply<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/preply\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Preply<\/a> launched several years after iTalki but has already caught up with the older platform. There are an almost equal number of Spanish tutors from Argentina on Preply as there are on iTalki. And by quickly searching for Spanish speakers from Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico, and other countries, it appears that both platforms have an equal share of the tutor pie.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1154\" height=\"790\" src=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/scheduling-classes-on-preply.jpg\" alt=\"Scheduling Classes On Preply\" class=\"wp-image-1668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/scheduling-classes-on-preply.jpg 1154w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/scheduling-classes-on-preply-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/scheduling-classes-on-preply-1024x701.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/scheduling-classes-on-preply-768x526.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1154px) 100vw, 1154px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Preply is like an online classroom where skilled teachers teach students one-on-one. But you don&#8217;t need to be physically in the same room. The power of the internet gives teachers in low-income countries the ability to earn money by teaching students in high-income countries. At the same time, the pool of teachers and students is expanded exponentially so there&#8217;s more choice in tutors, students, and price. Everyone wins, in theory.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Preply and iTalki are similar so check out this <a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/preply-vs-italki\/\">comparison review<\/a> to help you decide. That said, I recommend trying both platforms before making any decisions. And there&#8217;s no reason why you can&#8217;t use both and have a private tutor on each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/preply\" target=\"_blank\">Try Preply<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like italki and Preply but still want to check out the alternatives, <a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/lingoda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">try Lingoda<\/a>, an online language school where you can learn languages with live teachers and practice through homework marked by the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"duolingo\"><\/span>Duolingo<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s impossible to talk about language learning resources without mentioning the granddaddy of mobile apps, Duolingo. This 12-year old app has over 200 million users and provides free lessons on grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and more. It&#8217;s probably the best-known language learning app and just seems to grow in popularity every year. There&#8217;s also an <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/latin-american-spanish-podcasts\/\" target=\"_blank\">excellent podcast<\/a> by Duolingo to accompany your language studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Duolingo uses speech recognition technology to help you improve your accent. The Spanish courses are short and touch on a variety of topics of interest. Daily challenges help with repetition and knowledge-building.

No surprises there. But if&nbsp;you&#8217;re looking for something that breaks from the classic flashcard approach, Babbel might be a good option for you. It&#8217;s reasonably priced, and it covers a wide variety of languages\u2014including Spanish, of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lessons have been developed in-house by real linguists, which is great\u2014you can tell. The lessons are very well-designed and thorough. They&#8217;re not just a bunch of vocabulary words on flashcards!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s easy to <a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/babbel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">get started with Babbel<\/a>, as the website is well laid-out and user-friendly. You&#8217;ll have to create an account, which allows you to select your native language and the target language. After this, you&#8217;ll be asked a series of questions about what you hope to achieve from using this program, which include: improving your vocabulary; practicing grammar; writing emails; working abroad; traveling for pleasure; and speaking with family members who speak another language. Once you&#8217;ve selected your goals, you&#8217;ll be given the option of choosing a specific course based on these goals (e.g., &#8220;Writing Emails,&#8221; &#8220;Working Abroad&#8221;).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/babbel-app.jpg\" alt=\"babbel app\" class=\"wp-image-2342\" srcset=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/babbel-app.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/babbel-app-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/babbel-app-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/babbel-app-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/babbel-app-150x75.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The lessons themselves are written in English and translated into the target language (in this case, Spanish).

It could be used to complement any of the other learning tools in this review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ouino&#8217;s method is based on comprehension rather than memorization. You can easily monitor your progress, review your knowledge with flashcards, and take tests to ensure that you understand everything you&#8217;ve learned.&nbsp;Review all of your recent activities in one place and see what lessons or sections are new, which ones are complete and which ones still need work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/latinamericanspanishcafe.com\/ouino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Try Ouino<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"readlang\"><\/span>ReadLang<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you spend most of your time learning on a computer, rather than on mobile devices, then you should take advantage of some of the powerful browser extensions for language learners.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/readlang-web-reader\/odpdkefpnfejbfnmdilmfhephfffmfoh?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\">ReadLang<\/a> is one of my favorite tools for learning a foreign language while reading in my own native language (English) or getting hints in English while reading in another language.
