### Hi, I'm Alan, the founder of FluentU!

I became obsessed with learning Chinese, Japanese, and Korean while I was in college, and got good enough to work professionally in those languages as a management consultant.

I started FluentU to build a new kind of language app.

### Why do users call FluentU a “learning engine”?

Questions have images and video that you'll remember

Builds you up, so you can build sentences on your own, like in language classes

Go from understanding to speaking in a natural progression

###### How quickly will I learn with FluentU?

With FluentU, you'll notice a significant improvement in your listening comprehension and vocabulary after just a few videos. The key is to choose content that you genuinely enjoy, whether it's a YouTube video, Netflix show, or any other video with subtitles in the language you're learning. After watching and learning with a few hours of content, your confidence and understanding will greatly improve. As you immerse yourself in real-world content, your brain will naturally start picking up new words, phrases, slang, and grammar from the context of the videos. The more you watch, the faster you'll learn, and you'll find yourself becoming more confident in your language skills.

###### What languages can I learn with FluentU?

With FluentU, you can learn Spanish, French, Mandarin Chinese, German, Japanese, English, Italian, Russian, Korean, and Portuguese. For English, we provide versions tailored to Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Chinese, Italian, and Russian speakers. This helps learners study English with content that matches their native language, making learning easier and more effective.

###### How can I use Netflix for language learning?

FluentU allows you to learn a new language with Netflix by turning every Netflix show or movie into a personalized language learning experience. FluentU enhances language learning with Netflix by offering interactive features that integrate seamlessly with your favorite content in languages like Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, and English. With FluentU's Netflix integration, you'll have access to interactive subtitles and a powerful learning engine, making your language learning both effective and enjoyable.

###### Is it possible to learn a language with movies and TV shows?

Yes, absolutely! Watching movies and TV shows in your target language exposes you to authentic, everyday language use, including slang, idioms, and cultural references that you might not find in textbooks. This immersive experience helps improve your listening skills, expand your vocabulary, and understand the natural flow of conversations. There's a reason why learning with authentic content is one of the guiding principles of ACTFL (American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages). By choosing content that interests you, you're more likely to stay engaged and motivated, making the learning process both enjoyable and effective. But to be successful, make sure that the content is 'comprehensible input' for you - that's where FluentU comes in.
