My Take
I liked that they offered several languages. It could help students learn a language from an app(technological device) since they enjoy spending time on their devices already.
How I Use It
I would use this app for homework as well as small activities in class. This would be a fun in between activity for the students and will help them continue learning.

It is a good supplemental resource for students to use.
It is well organized and requires the students to think critically as well as enhance their reading skills. The program as a whole would serve to help each student improve the second language skills and become more confident communicators.

Engaging Language Site
As with any online learning program, the course is only successful if the learner is driven and participates to the best of his or her ability.

Overall though this is a well-organized and pedagogically sound program that would, with time and practice, help students or adults improve their language skills.

Educators in NYC should be aware that this program can be fully accessed with a NYPL library card.
