still a newer user but so far so good!
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
I like that the program regularly reviews some of the prior lessons. I'm doing the lessons very slowly when I'm able as one of my personal goals at work, so it's helpful to make sure I'm still retaining everything as I go. I took French in high school and college, so I do know the basics already, and I can say that the program does a great job sharing cultural tips and different grammar rules along the way as new ideas are regularly introduced.
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
This is such a minor thing, but the sound it makes when you complete a section is a very piercing ringing noise. I need the volume up to hear the rest of the program, but I could do with a quieter celebratory noise! I also wish there was a section containing spiritual terms since that would help in my field of work.
Recommendations to others considering Mango Languages?
This is a great option for learning a language on the side (at your own pace) or refreshing your knowledge of a language you used to practice. If you have a public library card, this is a great free option.
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?
When my team at work receives information from the field in French, the best we can do right now is to run the answers through Google Translate. That works well enough but isn't always the best when we're trying to quote ministry workers. I hope that over time, Mango Languages will help me surpass the basics of French and allow me to go one step beyond Google Translate to understand the nuances that a translation software cannot comprehend.

I love this software
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
It makes it a fun way to learn a language. It is allot like "Pimsleur" so if you like that you will like this.
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
The phrases they teach are not always relevant to a general conversation you might need to have.
Recommendations to others considering Mango Languages?
I would highly recommend this and if you are a member of a library you can access it at no charge.
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?
When speaking with people from other countries you can not only have a better understanding of what they are saying but you can communicate better because the things you are saying are less likely to get distorted in translation.

Great addition to library database offerings
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
There are so many languages to choose from! I appreciate they offer Latin America and Castillian Spanish. You can also used closed captioning if you are unable to use headphones to listen to the activities or if you an accessibility issue. I enjoy that the software incorporates oral and written activities.
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
I wish it were easier to skip around in certain sections. If you want to skip ahead a chapter it is difficult to do so. Some of the topics are not helpful or relevant, but I guess the purpose is to increase vocabulary.
Recommendations to others considering Mango Languages?
I highly recommend this product. I just logged in after not using the product for several months and it was still on the lesson I had been completing at the time. It is great that it picks up where you left off. I like how the language instruction varies. It really helps you build your skills with speaking, reading and writing.
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is offered as an educational tool for our public library. Customers can access Mango languages through our website and using their library card number. This is a great supplement for English Language Learners. Our library is committed to reaching out and serving our vulnerable populations and this software helps in that goal.

Mango Languages has helped me to Excellent Program! Look
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
I learn very well with Mango Language's methodology. The repetition and more importantly, direct application have been great. The lessons are concise, relevant, and comprehensive. The progression of lessons make realistic sense for a person who is going to be visiting another country or needs to learn to survive quickly in another language.
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
It's clear that they are building up different lessons for diverse learning styles. I absolutely love the movie learning! The color coded subtitles are gold (no pun intended)!
Recommendations to others considering Mango Languages?
One of my favorite features is the "literal translation." That has been invaluable as I decipher the foreign grammar.
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?
As far as conjugation is concerned, it's great that ML doesn't force us to read boring grammar charts and other things like that. Makes it easy to want to stick with the program and continue to learn.

Great Communicator
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
I love the fact that I am able to learn a new language at my own pace.
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
Nothing at the moment, still learning the app.
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has been beneficial because there are many different languages that you can learn. So for Spanish speaking customers it bridges a gap between workers and customers.

Tried several language apps--Mango is tops!!
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
If you're someone who likes to know the context of what to say when, and get plenty of patient reinforcement and practice, you might try this app. Duolingo just didn't make sense to me as much as Mango, and Rosetta Stone didn't provide enough context for grammar/sentence structure. I dabbled with a couple others from Google Play Store and the App Store but they were less than memorable.
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
It's sometimes hard to navigate past what you've already covered before if you switch accounts between library cards, etc.
Recommendations to others considering Mango Languages?
Give this a try and see if it works for the way you think, especially if you've tried other language programs and haven't felt like you got a good understanding from it. This is far more than your basic rote-repetition program! (See if you can access through your local library.)
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm looking to the future, hoping to live in Europe again. I want to be better prepared than the last time we were there, and I'm glad to be able to dabble in multiple languages instead of only one as with other programs.

Fun app for learning languages
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
I like the fact that there are so many languages to choose from, and learning seems fun and modern. It doesn’t feel boring to learn a language with Mango.
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
There’s not much that I dislike about it. I wish there was a better way to know if my pronunciation is what it should be.
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mango is used by many of our students who want to learn languages, because it’s provided by library. The benefits are that we don’t have an Italian program at our university, but students can still go and learn Italian with Mango.

Mango Languages
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
I like how practical the chapters are for Spanish, specifically in that the information that you learn is extremely useful for future conversations and travels to Latin America. It is a very engaging way to learn a language. I would strongly recommend for people who would like to learn other languages and improve their communication skills in French, Spanish, German, etc.
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
I dislike that sometimes the program can be a bit repetitive in terms of the information that you are learning and I at times wish it would move faster based on my level.
Recommendations to others considering Mango Languages?
I strongly support this program and think that Mango Languages should continue to provide interactive and engaging programs that assist in language learning. The chapters are very engaging and I would definitely recommend to other people interested
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?

Great way to learn a new language!
What do you like best about Mango Languages?
I like that this app teaches you phrases that you will actually use and it doesn’t just teach you how to speak the language, but it also teaches you about the culture of that language!
What do you dislike about Mango Languages?
Mango Languages is higher priced compared to other similar programs, but Nango Languages does go more in depth with teaching, so I think it’s worth the price.
What problems is Mango Languages solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mango Languages gives me the opportunity to speak with some of my Spanish speaking employees and understand them.
