These apps and courses are designed to provide you with a basic learning approach or to offer you extra material.<\/p>\n The ones we find most useful are listed below.<\/p>\n Duolingo<\/a> is one of the most popular apps for language learning \u2013 and for a good reason!<\/p>\n With both a free and a premium option, Duolingo offers a gamified and personalized learning experience. You can learn Greek at your own pace, setting daily goals, and keeping track of everything that you have already learned. <\/strong><\/p>\n The green owl will never let you forget your practice, with its very funny \u2013 and quite meme-able \u2013 daily reminders and notifications.<\/p>\n Memrise<\/a> is another great Greek language resource. It offers pre-made flashcards as well as interactive tools. It includes a wide range of courses, from alphabet learning to specific vocabulary choices. The app also provides practice sessions in the form of AI-assisted conversations.<\/strong><\/p>\n However, it does not yet <\/strong>offer Greek in its core courses. You can, however, find many smaller Greek courses created by community members.<\/p>\n In the same spirit as Memrise, Anki<\/a> is a great, intelligent software for creating flashcards. It is free and very enjoyable to use. There are also numerous user-created files, such as this list of Greek sentences<\/a>.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s say you have mastered the basics. You are pleased with what you have learned thus far and aim to apply it in the real world.

Clozemaster is a gamified language learning experience that aims to bridge the fluency gap between advanced beginner knowledge and native-level understanding. <\/strong><\/p>\n It is free to use, but it also has a premium version.
