What it is
The gamification everyone else imitates, in service of genuine spaced repetition language practice across 40+ languages. Duolingo for Schools adds assignment tracking, and the free tier is fully functional because ads, not schools, pay the bill.
Notable features
- 40+ languages
- Schools dashboard
- Habit machinery
A way to use it
Set a weekly XP floor instead of daily streaks; it respects busy weeks and still builds habit.
Privacy and accounts
Schools dashboard limits data sharing for classroom rosters; free tier shows ads.
A listing is a starting point, not a district approval. Check your own district's privacy and procurement rules before classroom use. Nobody pays to be listed here, and this link earns no commission.
