Digitally literate people find technological solutions to their needs. This also applies to language learning.

Popular language learning apps such as Duolingo, Babbel or Rosetta Stone offer interactive and entertaining lessons and exercises to make learning fun. These apps allow learners to study flexibly in terms of time and location. Here you can find more apps or programmes for independent online language learning.

For a more personalised learning experience, online platforms such as iTalki or Preply can also be used to find language teachers via video chats and take face-to-face lessons. They offer a wide range of languages and teachers with different prices and ratings. Comprehensive learning material combined with live online lessons in individual or small group settings is available, for example, on the German online platform Lingoda.

An even more individualised option for online language acquisition are so-called language tandems between native speakers of different origins: here, you can communicate via video chat with a native speaker in the desired language and support each other in language acquisition. Learning partner platforms help to arrange the tandem.

Last but not least, the digital library of the Austrian Chamber of Labour offers a free option to take language courses in mp3 format - and traditional course providers such as VHS, bfi and WIFI also have high-quality online language courses on offer.
