How the lessons work
Each lesson starts by introducing the words with their meaning and pronunciation. Then you hear sentences in a natural voice, type what you hear and check your answer, with a slow replay when you need it. Words you get wrong come back later for review. Unit 1 and the first lesson of every unit are free; Pro unlocks the rest.
