I'm looking for an alternative to duolingo, the main appeal for me of duolingo is the gamification of the app as this helps me to stay consistent. I also dislike how Duolingo hardly teaches you tenses or any grammar for that fact. Another gripe with the app is that is teaches you Latin American Spanish rather than Spanish Spanish

Thanks in advance

Mondly is good, but I don't know which Spanish it teaches.

Have to check it out. How does it compare to memrise

[โ€“] ivn@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I've not tested memrise so I can't compare.
