I’m looking for an app or website to help my so improve her English.

We looked at Duolingo earlier (as I’ve used it before for learning a bit of Greek) but it does not support English to English courses. This is a problem as our native language is as obscure as it gets.

Do you have any recommendations? It would be awesome if the service was as gamelike as Duolingo.

This is my first post on Lemmy, I hope I’m not in the wrong community.

    Find some teachers of the language on YouTube. Watch short videos daily. Since they are teaching the language it will be basic and you can use subtitles and speed to make it easier and hear and read at the same time.

    Do this for a while until it is too easy then move on to world news in the target language again on YouTube and or on a site in English. As it is world news the events should be familiar.

    Then move on to movies with subtitles .

    The most important thing is daily contact with the language. Listening is the most important part as you need to understand first before you can begin to respond. It helps you structure the language and learn how to construct it.
