Yabla Spanish

Yabla has become my favorite way to learn Spanish over the last couple of years. Everything is video based, which makes me feel more involved than other systems, and the price for the anual subscription (linked on their website) is better than for most of the competitors. I use both the app and the browser version, each offering a few benefits over the other, but it is easy enough to switch back and forth. The key concept here is that you can interactively watch and rewatch videos of different sorts, with exercises in listening, speaking and recalling the various sentences. There are also vocab exercises and discussion forums for each video, often with staff chiming in to answer questions. Videos include custom Yabla content, music videos, TV shows and ads. I particularly enjoyed going through much of the Columbian version of The Wonder Years in bite sized pieces. The content is engaging and the repetition key to driving home the grammar until it sticks. Support is also awesome.

I wish that you could add other languages without having to pay full price for another one. I’m sure it’s worth it, but I only have so much time. So, no sense in double paying.

Thank you for a great service! Videos are interesting and good to gradually increase listening skills. Please get all episodes on Extra!

I honestly can not believe my Spanish teacher had the right to use my money to buy this garbage. This and her poor teaching are the reason why I am stopping after Spanish 3. Please fix your app if you want a better experience for those to come.

A mí mo me gusta Yabla.

I have been using Yabla Spanish for several years and it has definitely helped me to improve my Spanish. The amount of awesome content that Yabla provides is incredible and new videos are posted all of the time. With well over 1,500 videos and I believe approaching over 2,000, Yabla is something I think all serious Spanish users should use on a daily basis. I wish more people knew how awesome Yabla is. You will find it awesome too! ¡Buena Suerte!

I am unable to get videos to play. I have to use website. I like site but would like to access videos on the app

Many of the videos are songs with translation. YouTube has much higher selection (Free of course) and better songs in my opinion. All videos are very short, most are one two or 3 min, some are 20 seconds. When you add the total video time it’s absurdly low. The idea behind Yabla is good but $10 per month subscription is WAY too expensive for the content. You don’t know this until you purchase the program.

This app is great for the intermediate to advanced Spanish speaker who wants exposure to many different accents and to be challenged by language in its raw form, spoken by native speakers. Enjoy!

Yabla Spanish has added a whole new dimension to my study of Spanish. It rounds out and complements the more formal aspects of language learning by providing real live people in real live situations. Also, the ability to slow down the speaker(s),to pause and backup is very helpful. Good job. Glad I found you.
