Hello
busuu is the only app i know that actually teaches stuff how it should be and doesnt start off by teaching you how to say house and how to order at a restaurant, busuu teaches how to say "hello", "how are you", "i am" first
It is very practical
you're right
Busuu actually has speech recognition now in some of their lessons. I personally like it because it teaches formal and informal French. Some slang might come handy.
Busuu actually has speech recognition now. I just got promoted with it while studying Italian. Other than that, great review as always
Have you tried any other programs?
@@finalcountdown7658 I currently use 3. Busuu, drops and Duolingo
Great review! Thank you for always finding deals for us. I’m currently learning Polish 😊
Great breakdown! Very helpful 😊 think I might try busuu out
I feel like they can do a better job filling out the grammar section with the "tips" that are in the actual lessons but apart from that, Busuu is amazing. I love it.
Thanks for watching and sharing!
Great review. Very comprehensive and to the point. I like the way you do the review - with a lot of excitement and encouragement!
Thank you!!
Thank you so much for the Review
Vielen Dank Brüder
Bitte!
This seems to be a pretty decent option! Thanks for the insight!
Well explained review of the Busuu 2023 language app. Thanks
Great review. I agree, I prefer Babbel too!
Thank for the information about busuu
Thanks for the Clear & Concise report on this language app
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for always including discount codes. They make learning a new language much more accessible.
No problem! Appreciate you watching
Yeah I used the Busuu free version for a while but the paid version can be worth it. I use the Spanish language course. I’m sure it’s different for every language. But I enjoy it. Than you for the video :). Thumbs up
Thanks for sharing!
I fully agree with the value of Video in learning. It helps a lot with concentration, retention and immerson too!
I think this deserves mention about Busuu: the have soweit major non-European languages, live Arabic or Japanese. From what I've read their content is mixed in quality and limited in quantity beyond beginner Level, but at that price range it might still be usefull in starting off.
The price point definitely makes Busuu appealing. It's not my favorite app, but good value
Great review 👍
Thanks! 👍
This was really helpful thank you! I want to learn Spanish (doing that right now), and I think I want to learn French as I think it would be a good language to follow Spanish as it is also a latin based language. After that I'm not sure yet :-)
Glad it was helpful!
There is now an additional Grammar tab in the Review section for some languages such as French, English, Spanish, Japanese but not for Russian nor Arabic for example.
so cool! I want to learn Spanish 💃
Thanks for the helpful reviews! Going to try Busuu for Turkish. Hopefully it's a good course :). It's on Cyber Monday sale of $3.48/mo for 12 mos.
Check that: when I clicked to purchase, the 75% offer of $3.48/mo for 12 mos changed to a 50% offer of $6.95/mo for 12 mos, so I didn't buy. Boo.
Appreciate the review vids, tho! You convinced me to buy the Pimsleaur Lifetime Turkish 1 course on CM sale. Busuu was just going to be an addon. Cheers!
Glad we could help!
I really like Busuu! Im Portuguese and I already achieved B2 level . I definitely can see my improvement. Besides normal course, they have English pronunciation course, Academic and Business.
I hope achieve C1 level .
I recommend it to everyone and do it on your computer like a online study, take notes and pratice 👍🏼
Thanks for watching!
Did you TEST at a B2 level?? Because that should take about 600 hours... it's about 150-200 hours per level. Go take a test and pass B2. Don't rely on busuu telling you that you are at B2.. you likely are not.
The review I've been looking for.
I appreciate the fact that you didn't hold back when talking about negatives.
Love your honesty mate.
Thank you! Appreciate that
I would like to learn Dutch, the language seems to be available at Busuu. Thank you for the good and helpful review.
You are welcome!
It's seems for me the new version has less exercises. I remember in the older version some exercises have 3 sections or more unlike the newer one where all exercises are only one section
Great video. I’m going to order Busuu to learn Spanish.
Can i ask how it was your experience using Busuu to learn Spanish?!
I've been using Busuu for several days now. Do you know if there is a limit on how many lessons one can complete with the free version?
Love the community involvement in the app. Definitely increases learning ability for learning a language like French
Definitely! Thanks for watching!
about lessons lenght, well, the first 40 are pretty short yeah, but at least on German, after 50 / 60 lessons each lesson ges way longer like 7/ 10 minutes each
Can someone help me with how to practice speaking the language I'm learning in a structured, systematic way? I don't have any access to other people to chat with so I have to do it by myself. How can I go about it?
I ❤love busuu 👍👍👍
Does anyone know how do I get the 50% OFF premium plan? I'm clicking on the link in the description but I can't find the discounts
How long a time have you spend on Busuu before reviewing it? Because the way you describe your experience isn't entirely consistent with my experience.
Great
Does busuu provide french language certificate
I'd love to learn Spanish!
Thank you for the informative video and just follow your program. Being a Chinese with English B1-B2 level, I've been learning B2 through Bussu for 4 days, no planning to buy VIP yet. I like the short conversation recognition, review function most. Just let me check it out and feedback my feeling after B2 study.
Nice :)
how do you download each lesson now on mobile?
Did they remove the offline mode in the new object?
I cannot change my level I mean app requires to take premium. Is it possible without buying premium to go to the other level?
¡Listen up! It's time to face the facts: relying solely on an app to learn a language is not going to cut it. You need to understand that an app is just one tool in your language-learning arsenal. To truly improve your skills, you must incorporate a variety of resources and approaches into your learning path. So, let's get serious about language learning and start using all the tools at our disposal!
Facets. I use a number of tools and apps, including writing
How can I download my lessons on this new update? 😢
I'm a premium member
I like the fact is has actual country based people and images. I also want to learn about Japanese people.
I love busuu
I recently downloaded this app because it was free to use. I'm trying to learn German so we can hopefully move to Germany.
Very cool! Good luck
Busuu Was good, not anymore. The app takes too long to load, and has too many bugs that just frustrate me to keep on learning the language 😩
Hey John! I want to learn French, it’s the national second language where I live!
From Canada, eh? Thanks for watching!!
Strongest point of Busuu is content of the lesson system. It's quite detailed and engaging.
The most disappointing feature of Busuu is the Review section. I think it's called the Award winning "Smart Review".
I don't know if my premium app has any problem, but my situation is:
I've completed several lessons in the app (finished 5 chapters with about 24 lessons) but the Review section only shows 16 words learnt, which are some very basic words from some beginning lessons. And it keeps show me that 16 words. I don't see any other words from latter lessons which I really want to learn!
Anyone have any ideas about that, please!
Another suggestion is adding real Speech Recognition feature to the most part of the lessons, not just 1 or 2 here and there.
During your lessons on the right-hand corner, there is a bookmark sign on some words. If you click it, the word or phrase will be added to your review section =)
I think the levels are too short for the levels they claim you are at.
I want to learn Spanish, then Visaya, and then Tagalog (I wish Busuu had Filipino languages).
Ive used duolingo for a year and im going to change to busuu because the japanese course isnt showing any speaking lessons
Duo can get really frustrating like that. Thanks for watching!
I want to learn polish fluently, my partner is polish. We regularly travel to Poland and my partners family don’t speak English
Very cool reason to learn. Good luck!
I prefer Busuu now than 3 years ago. It has a better interface.
I would like to learn German. Hope to travel there one day
Very good reason :)
I want to learn french to became an air hostess.
I want to learn Italian
I want to learn French. Next would be Italian, and then Spanish 💕
Oh yeah, multiple languages 👍🏻
@@TestPrepInsight I read it now has speech recognition? Any thoughts on Busuu now that they have it?
do you guys have a mango languages video? I think I can get that one for free from my library
Yes we have a couple vids on Mango
I really like Busuu's context, but I feel like I can't remember things when they get more difficult, because they pass very fast.
They could afford to work in more spaced repetition. Thanks for watching!
bussu paid or free (I didn't buy premium) ?
Busuu, it means ugly in japanese. Pronunciation is kinda different but yes, for us it sounds like that
I want to learn french.
Tried busuu and babbel for Spanish. I liked babbel more.
I tend to agree. Appreciate you watching!
Spanish. Sounds good. Revamped app
Yeah tons of changes
johnn can you make a comparison of memrise please
Memrise vs Busuu? they are somewhat similar, so would make sense
@@TestPrepInsight can you do a review of memrise in 2023
Yes, we're planning to do so soon 👍🏻
First time hearing of this one.
Not our favorite, but has some nice perks
Busuu shouldn't aim to be like Duolingo. The latter has a bad reputation for being a useless language learning tool. Instead, Busuu should aim to be a unique one on its own. Yeah, I know this video is a year old already. I hope Busuu is much better now and a mile away from Duolingo.
Sadly it isn't
I want to learn Spanish so I can communicate better with a lot of the people I work with.
Always a great reason to learn. Thanks for watching!
And especially being a manager I should be able to communicate effectively with the people I mat potentially direct. Thank you.@@TestPrepInsight
For sure. You're welcome!
Trying to learn Bisaya. Not sure I'd this program is best.
No kidding! That will be cool :)
bussu free or paid
I actually would love to learn Mandarin!
Very cool!
