Which is why I would say yes to the app being relatively key - I only got it this year and I've definitely been using memrise more since.Alicia Pohlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18417858874039171848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242109706488840827.post-83567826401973265852016-09-10T12:39:13.335-07:002016-09-10T12:39:13.335-07:00Right??

Never had it as a phone app - maybe that's the key ;) Thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15151848565365468678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242109706488840827.post-28256392577041081902016-09-05T08:55:46.251-07:002016-09-05T08:55:46.251-07:00I'm determined to make it to the end of this w...I'm determined to make it to the end of this week at least ;-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15151848565365468678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242109706488840827.post-19344561797765608312016-09-05T08:54:54.886-07:002016-09-05T08:54:54.886-07:00No way!

It's a bit like Duolingo in that it's game-based, but unlike Duolingo there's no obnoxious owl, there's much more variety to choose from, and (if you want to put in the effort) you can make your own courses to help with whatever vocabulary you're focussing on in other lessons.<br />Mainly, I've found that having it on my phone makes it way easier for me actually stick with it - I'm horrible about signing up for language learning sites and then forgetting about them (who isn't?) and so far it's the only one that's managed to keep me coming back (I've been on it for maybe 3 years). I find it really helpful for days when I just don't have the time or the Bock to sit down and listen to a whole podcast!<br />They should really hire me...the number of people I've recommended it to...I sound like a total convert!!Alicia Pohlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18417858874039171848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242109706488840827.post-52202499073341475822016-09-05T03:54:53.078-07:002016-09-05T03:54:53.078-07:00Ha ha!
