Busuu is a very good option to learn languages. You can do grammar, vocabulary or speaking exercices. You have also access to lessons which allows me to better understand and progress more effectively.

is great

Is great. Helps me a lot in learning english

Overall good but lack of explanations in lessons later on

I was very happy when I first used Busuu to learn Japanese with explanations and reminders provided in early lessons. However, I would like to point out some problems which make it not easy to follow in lessons later on... 1.)
