I've been using #LanguageTransfer to learn #Spanish (#Español), and so far I'm loving it! I'm at lesson 20 out of 90 now.
At first, the course teaches you how certain English words can be very easily converted into Spanish, for example -al adjectives can very often be converted into Spanish as it is, only changing the pronunciation. Real (reeel /ɹi:l/) -> real (rrre-AL /re'al/). And converting -ly adverbs to -mente. Probably > problamente. Or changing -tion nouns to -ción for the equivalent noun or to -ar to make it a verb. Creation > creación (kre-a-SION /kɾe.a'sjon/) > crear (to create) (kre-AR /kɾe'aɾ/). It's a very nice way to boost the learner's confidence.
The course emphasizes a lot on not taking notes, and to think about the exercise problems by pausing. You're not supposed to try to memorize stuff, instead you gradually remember words and conjugations by thinking through it and by forgetting and relearning them in the lessons.
One very interesting thing is that in the beginning 10-ish classes, they use a lot of verbs like (I) want (quiero), (I) must (debo), etc. to avoid having to conjugate verbs in the beginning and overwhelming the learner. Like at first you learn stuff like "I want to see her" (Quiero ver la) to not have to deal with weird irregularities such as "I see her" (La veo).
It's really fun. 9.8/10 recommend. (0.2 points taken away for low volume of the audio files)
