▬ ABOUT THIS VIDEO ▬
Babbel vs Pimsleur Review (Which Language App Is Best?). In this video, John from the TPI team covers his updated review of the language learning apps from Pimsleur vs Babbel. These are two popular apps for learning Spanish, French, and Italian. People also use Pimsleur and Babbel courses to learn Russian, German, and Portuguese. John talks about what the lessons are like from both of these companies, as well as what kind of grammar content each provides. For example, Pimsleur offers long audio lessons that do a good job of improving your conversational skills and listening comprehension. Babbel offers shorter lessons that quickly touch on reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Pimsleur also added a new feature called Voice Coach to provide feedback during pronunciation drills. Thanks for watching this Babbel app review and Pimsleur app review. Hopefully it helps you choose Babbel or Pimsleur to help you become fluent in a new language. We will see if or where each of these language companies land on the list of the best language apps of the year. Best of luck!

  • I've just started using Pimsleur. What I immediately liked about it is that it is heavily focussed on getting you to listen to and participate in coversations. This is the reason why I switched from Babbel. Babbel has it's strengths but for me the most important thing is learning how to actually converse in French which is something Pimsleur does better.

    • Yeah I think apps like Babbel are just for vocab basically. Yeah it helps you form sentences but I feel like actually hearing the language spoken is what is a game changer for me. I learned French and still find it extremely hard to understand spoken French. I haven’t tried French on pimsleur but I’m starting Spanish and it’s significantly easier to understand and respond quicker when the person is speaking. I love it! I don’t think it’s just cuz Spanish is easy.

Now, I am getting ready to work with refugee children from Central America, and would like to be able to better communicate with them. I think I am going to follow your suggestion of using a combination of both Pimsleur and Babbel, to give myself the best chance of a jump start!

Babbel offered me a 2 year subscription with all 13 languages for $126. Pimsleur offered a yearly subscription for all 51 languages which was $164.95 or $13.75 per month down from $20.95. That’s 34% off.

  • I have done all 150 lessons of Mandarin Chinese for Pimsleur, four times each. I really enjoyed it, and did it every day for my first few years of learning. I have been studying Chinese for 4,5 years now and while I have not used Pimsleur in a long while, I would recommend it for someone wanting to start learning a language and picking up speaking ability. I was using Pimsleur before I could read or write Chinese. I wouldn't recommend using it (or any language learning tool/app) in isolation though. Babbel sounds cool, based on this review I wanted to check it out. Unfortunately, it looks like Chinese is not an option, nor do they seem to have any Asian languages. Shame really, sounded like it would be cool compliment to my studies. Bit surprised how limited the language options are. Glossika I think is a great compliment to Pimsleur though for even more listening and speaking practice. For learning the grammar and writing and such, a textbook and some kind of structured online course really is essential in my opinion though.

  • thank you for the informative review! I just finished the 7-day trial with pimsleur and just signed up for the annual subscription. To me, the biggest selling point, other than many mentioned in this video already, is that pimsleur offers spanish (spain - castilian). Not sure if babble offers that option as well, but from what I gathered by glancing at the main page, it doesn't seem so. And this option isn't available in Duolingo either.

  • I would like to help refugees with interpreting. Just being someone to help them get settled or whatever they need as far as school, work and housing. I have a 30 day streak on Duo learning Arabic. I also started the free trial on Pimsleur learning Dari. I’ve really been enjoying Pimsleur. I feel I’ve definitely gotten more out of it conversationally compared to Duo. But I feel Duo does better on learning alphabets and reading the languages. Just my little 2 cent review on the two apps I’ve tried. 🤷🏼‍♀️

  • I am grateful for this honest review. It saved me a ton of time trying to research it myself. Plus maybe I will win a subscription to my first choice Pimsleur🙂 I choose it because I can do half the lesson while driving my kids around to soccer.

  • I feel like the longer lessons would more likely cause the lessons to be remembered. I'm currently using Busuu but I feel like I'm forgetting a lot since the lessons are so short. Ultimately I'm learning a new language to have more access to another culture. As I said before, I find the German language to be the most appealing, and the people seem really friendly and warm towards people learning their language.

  • I have traveled extensively and lived in Asia, Europe, and South America and have studied languages since childhood (Spanish, German, Mandarin, and Japanese). Now I’m focusing on different languages because I know full it make future trips to my next countries (Egypt, Pakistan, India) so more enjoyable. The locals ALWAYS appreciate English-speakers who are at least semi-functional in their language and they are more willing to help you during your trip. Plus, if you really hit it off you got a new lifelong friend. Nothing like expanding your mind!
