Busuu Reviews in October 2026: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Busuu is excellent

Busuu is excellent, is a app complete in your work, the levels is different at each level, have text, lessons, audio, it’s perfect!

Unnatural audio samples in Turkish

Most spoken sentences in the Turkish course are unnaturally broken up into single words or phrases. It could be useful for the initial lessons, but is annoying and unhelpful later on. I would much rather prefer to have two speak buttons - at natural speed and somewhat slower - both without the artificial pauses that prevent the learner from acquiring the sentence intonation. In fact they literally make the sentences and especially the dialogs harder to follow. Corrections and encouragement ...

Good place to start

So far I think it's a good site to start learning a language. It has grammar, vocabulary, written texts and audio and it builds gradually the knowledge. The tips on grammar and culture points are really good. It would be good to have more levels (it goes until B2 max).

Tap to see meanings function

Busuu has a good layout and a useful training plan. Being able to get corrections from native speakers is a great experience.

Good app to learn English

I like bussu for now. It´s soon but I hope it help me to learn a lot of English. In the future, I hope I can chat with other native with this app. I think this is missing in bussu and it could be important to improve.

Fabulous

Absolutely fabulous. So flexible to fit in with your needs and agenda. Very clever, stimulating and effective methods of learning. Really enjoy it and feels it is successful in teaching me the language I want to speak.

I like Busuu because it has the most…

I like Busuu because it has the most simple but most effective way of teaching. I know that chatting in the system is not possible but it would be a good idea for the people who would like to improve their writing skills. It can cause a problem as well but this would be my one and only recommendation.

Best program on the market, on a mediocre app

Honestly, I hate only giving 3 stars, on one hand, this app is wildly effective, the teaching method is excellent and by far the best on the market. However, the app itself feels amateur with a lot of poor UX choices. Here are some of the most frustrating issues: 1. Buttons don't have loading state. If you need to load the next question, and it's going to take time, it's ridiculous that there isn't any indication that the loading is in process. I can't tell you how many times I've click ...
