The Babbel Method

Why Babbel Works

The Babbel Method is the shortest path to real-life conversations, bringing a powerful curriculum right to your fingertips. The time-tested strategies, empirically proven by academics from Yale University, City University of New York, and Michigan State University, that Babbel’s language-learning experts employ are created and curated to have you speaking in as little as three weeks. It’s so effective, more than 10 million people have purchased subscriptions. Babbel students stick around with good reason: because Babbel works.

Here’s how:

1. We keep it real

Our lessons are grounded in real-world conversations. What that does is gets you speaking right away — all it takes is 10 minutes a day.

“We want you to be able to talk about the things you’re interested in.”

2. That’s what they said

The voices teaching you are those of native speakers, not machine-learning bots. And likewise, the conversations aren’t only lessons in pronunciation; they’re lessons in culture.

Authenticity is key to fully exploring a new place via a new language.

3. Learn it, review it, retain it

Babbel’s content utilizes proven cognitive techniques that move new vocabulary through your brain’s six memory stages, ultimately parking it in long-term memory.

We’ve introduced new games, podcasts, stories, and more, all designed to help you explore your chosen language.
