I suppose this is an indispensable shop for those who are passionate about learning languages. I am only on my way so far, I chose German only because this language doesn't sound as any other languag... See more

It is a bit unclear what the ordered items consists of (books, PDF, CD), and using CD is becoming a bit old fashioned. But the downloaded and the online materials are well suited for learning a new... See more

A close friend of mine is so passionate…

A close friend of mine is so passionate about the health of the community, and she wants to reach out to them, but she's not Yoruba, so there's a communication problem here. I want to help her understand Yoruba so she can fulfill her dream for helping the community. Lingua gave me just what I needed. Thank you.

I'm interested in learning Dutch as it is similar to German language with which I'm already familiar with. I find the course very informative and precise and I'm sure that I'll be recommending it to my friends!

Fun Learning

I am living in Georgia in a predominantly Azeri town so need to learn the language. I was so nervous to learn but after learning a few phrases, it has got me excited to learn!!!

Learning Ladin through Russian
I am learning Ladin, which is a language spoken in the mountains of northern Italy. I was very surprised to find a Ladin-Russian course available at linguashop.com. By sharing the site with 3 friends, I even got the workbook for free. When I started working through the exercises I noticed a few errors in Russian. I wrote to linguashop and they told me that they welcome customer feedback and that I could get the enhanced audio course for free for sending improvements. They kept their word and I am now enjoying learning Ladin, through Russian, 90 pages, all correct. :-)

Don't wait around or your purchase will expire

I purchased a language course as a Christmas present. However, the recipient apparently took too long to download the language course and now the order number is no longer valid. We will have to pay more money to get an updated order number and download a product I already purchased. Nowhere in the order confirmation did it say that the product would only be available for 14 days, but apparently that's how long you have to download the course you paid money for. If you're too slow you will have to pay ransom.

Can't say anything about the actual product, obviously, since we have no access to it, but business practices seem dodgy.

Would not recommend unless you know you will be able to download quickly.

ETA: Updating to reply to the response from LinguaShop. My order was placed on 24/12, not in October as you say. I have never sent you emails confirming receipt of anything. Either way, I don't see how that changes the fact that you sold me a product without telling me it would become unavailable in just a few weeks and now demand payment to provide the product I already purchased. If it were possible to give fewer than one star I would. Terrible customer service.

Reply from LinguaShop

Thank for your comment. The interesting thing about 2022, is that most people today understand that when you buy a PDF or MP3 file for download, you need to save it on your computer or your phone.

When you placed the order, you confirmed that you had visited the help page. This means that you knew before placing the order that there is free support and, if needed, paid support. The free support gives you very clear instructions : Go to the home page, click the download button. If you need a human being to help you with that, paid support is availble.

Paid support has a very low price. So low in fact, that it hardly makes sense to spend time writing a nasty review.

Learning Estonian!

I am English and learning Estonian because my partner is Estonian and we would like our kids to be brought up knowing both languages.
I’m exhausted looking for decent material to help me learn until I came across Lingua Shop! These worksheets are easy to read and great for a beginner to learn!
Thank you!

I am a teacher

I am a teacher, teaching kids Afrikaans that is their 2nd/3rd language in South Africa. The lessons are easy enough to follow.

Great website for language learners!

I have a 20 minute drive into work and it's an ideal opportunity to learn a bit of Somali. After working through two lessons I learned some vocabulary and a few expressions necessary in every day use.

Lingala is a really beautiful language

Lingala is a really beautiful language. I bought the Lingala MP3 audio lessons and the exercise workbook. The audio lessons really help to learn how to pronounce the words and phrases properly. The lessons are quite easy to follow.

Brilliant course for conversing

I have used a number of linguaShop courses and I can only say that they have all been excellent. I am currently using the Welsh course which gives the option of either learning the North or South dialects. I find that the automatic progress linked into the exercises reinforces retention and enables one to use the language in the wild!
