Babbel
We’ve reviewed Babbel here at Latin American Spanish Cafe and we like it. Like Mondly, DuoLingo, Busuu, Babbel focuses on the repetition of words, phrases, and situations to try and drill home the message. It works. These methods are basically how everyone learns a language and it will teach you a language if you persevere. The great thing is that you also get the opportunity to practise your target language with the apps. Check out the Babbel discount for 2020
Mondly Lifetime Deal
We love Mondly. It’s one of our favourite tools for language learning. And while there are regular discounts throughout the year, none are as good as the Black Friday Deals and Cyber Monday discounts.
Get 95% off LIFETIME ACCESS to all of Mondly including all 41 languages. Yes, that’s a discount coupon of 95%. If you’re looking for an easy and great value way to learn a new language, look no further.
Lifetime Access to Mondly for only 89.99 EUR / USD (all current & future languages & features included) – an amazing offer!
The Sale ends after Cyber Monday, on November 30th, at 11:59
Busuu Coupon
Busuu, one of our favorite language apps, is worth a look any time of year. But every holiday season, the team offers a discount. Sometimes is 50%. So it’s worth checking out if you’re looking for a phone app that will help you improve your Spanish (or any of 12 different languages)
A Busuu licence is also a great gift idea for that special language learner at Christmas.

Frequently Asked Questions
A list of questions we get asked here at Latin American Spanish Cafe thanks to our updated list of discounts and promotions.
Is there a DuoLingo Black Friday deal?
DuoLingo is free. The company does offer a service called DuoLingo Plus, but thus far, it has not offered a discount on this for Black Friday. Check back here for updates as we learn of them.
Does Fluent in 3 Months have a Black Friday deal and is it good for Spanish learners?
Yes, Fluent in 3 Months or FI3M, as it’s sometimes called, usually offers a pretty good Black Friday and Cyber Monday discount. The 3-month Teachable-based course can sell for less than $100 so it’s worth a look. While there is a Spanish track, it’s Castillian Spanish, rather than Latin American.
Are there any language learning discounts year round?
We know of a few. Kris Broholm from Actual Fluency is offering $20 off his Bite Size Language Essential course and $40 off the Premium course.
