## LingQ Reviews in South Africa

### ***** "The best foreign language app I discovered"
I am very happy with the app and its content. I am probably not using it to its fullest potential, but I can find myself within it.
-- Hannes Koegelenberg, 2024-12-23

### ***** "Lingq Review"
Best app to learn languages. Watch Steve Kaufman’s videos on how to learn a language and use Lingq. If you follow his methods you will unlock the not-so-secret way of learning whilst having fun.
-- Viaan Reviews, 2024-10-12

### *---- "An entire continent forgotten"
Not a single African language made available. It seems no language learning app can offer any attention to the many languages and cultures in such an abundantly diverse continent.
-- lukejohnwilson, 2022-11-29

### *---- "Disappointed. Not suitable for Hebrew students"
I like the idea of the app, has the potential to work well
But there is no research into the Hebrew language. Only advanced speakers can read without the vowels.
It’s impossible to expect a beginner/intermediate to decipher the text, even though you can read the letters. 
So close, yet so far.
-- Tristin Spargo, 2021-02-03

### ***** "Simply the best way to learn languages."
Been subscribed for more than a year now and I can say that Lingq is the most effective tool for language learning that I have come across.
-- Cecils Ghost, 2017-01-08

### ***** "At last!"
Was waiting for an update for so long :) I've now got to get used to the new interface but it's looking really good 👍 Love the new app, looking forward to using it. Great job!
-- S€OP3, 2016-12-20

### ***** "Revolutionary"
This app breaks all the language learning barriers. I am currently studying 4 languages on Lingq and I have no problem whatsoever doing so. Definitely worth paying for!
-- WikusVente, 2015-12-10
