Duolingo Language Learning: I use it for easy home education

Dear reader,

(Spanish learning/ teaching? Scrool to the end for my fun lesson)

It is true that I love language study and learning and I love Duolingo, even though I am not happy they do not have a level two once you finish you language course. I finished my Latin course and got bored, picked up 2 more languages…

This is my Duolingo report this week:

I guess I have a need to prove I am a real person. Why?

With the modern trend of everything we find being AI, I do have a need to prove that I am a real person who really studies language and teaches her children.

Just today we did Halloween arts and crafts…

Anyway, let us connect on Duolingo if you use it, find me as Eve Sanchez.

Why Duolingo

I am currently trying to have more XP on Greek, also struggling with my Greek.

I do not need to learn a language, but I attempted to get my kids interested in Spanish, my first language, and they do not want to be told what to learn, they have their own opinions and ideas, which is really cute…

I joined Duolingo to inspire my kids to learn languages because they imitate anything I do: no pressure.

It worked because they started learning languages too. They are not organized and quit their own Duolingo, yet, Lilli does my Latin lessons at times, Vivi is learning the Greek alphabet with me, they have a Dinolingo Spanish course, Lilli took a Latin class, Lilli and I have Latin jokes, Alex does the Greek lessons with me and repeats the Greek words, Lilli and Vivi took Spanish classes: it worked, but my inspiration effort is ongoing.

Part of my effort is to have them observe my own learning, as well as to experience my learning methods which are varied and colorful, on top of that to expose them to different languages: music in Spanish and Italian; Italian, Latin, Greek words, phrases, and entire videos or podcasts being broadcasted in our house; and more.

And you,

Are you learning or teaching a language? Which? Do you have tips?

Do you listen to music in your target language?

Learning Spanish?

Poemas de José Martí. Lo más bello escrito por el hombre

If you are searching for reading materials in Spanish that are beautiful and deep, look no further than the poetry of José Martí.

In my Spanish blog, I just shared one of his best poems with a translation for your understanding and study.

Poetry is great for language study because you don’t have to understand every word to get the message.

With love,

Eve
