About Glossika
Glossika trains you on whole sentences: you listen to and repeat large numbers of level-appropriate French sentences, chosen and spaced by an adaptive algorithm. There is a 7-day free trial, then a subscription priced on the site. It suits a learner from about A2 who wants a lot of listen-and-repeat practice to make speech automatic. It is repetitive and light on grammar explanation, so it works best next to a course.
