When you can speak another language, your world becomes bigger, richer and more inspiring. And, say the Babbel founders, it should be easy and effective. The lessons are quick, bite-sized and entertaining and 50pc of Babbel users learn with apps as their primary resource. Witte says, “This mobile language learning supports Babbel’s idea of easy learning. The touch display allows for much faster rehearsal of vocabulary, simply by swiping cue cards left or right and users can check their pronunciation or record a speaking role in a dialogue, which contributes to stilling the fear of talking in an unfamiliar language.” Says Witte, “Online language learning owes a big part of its popularity to being easily accessible. It allows for getting your feet wet, to get started with learning without devoting too much time, money, or energy to organising a language class.” It’s the ultimate tool for the modern, time-pressed worker.
