LearnTok English video: two students in class, with Spanish subtitles

ES Por supuesto. ¿Cuál es el problema?

1Watch

Short dialogues at the café, in class, at work. Subtitles in English or in your language, and any new word translates with a single tap.

2Answer

After the video, a one-minute lesson: understand it, rebuild the sentence, say it out loud. You know right away if you got it.

3Come back tomorrow

Every day, a quick review of the words you saved. What you know comes back less and less often; what you struggle with comes back sooner.
