I’ve been using this language tool since last October. Initially, I used it to help with the French. There are levels and the diamond level is the top tier. The diamond level has tournaments every couple of months. I’ve participated in 3 and finished 1st two times. During the first tournament I found I could earn points doing math. The French lessons would give me 20 or 25. The math would give me 30 or 35. When you double and triple those during “special” times it adds up. For the last tournament I learned English because you get 40 or 45. I noticed during the final round the top 4 were all learning English. I need to start back on the French and forget about these meaningless tournaments.

The tool itself is average at best I think. It does a job but it’s so repetitive.
