About Gymglish
Gymglish sends one 10-minute lesson a day: a short, humorous story episode followed by grammar and vocabulary exercises, adapted to your level, interests and mistakes. Each language is its own course with its own story: Frantastique for French, Hotel Borbollón for Spanish, Wunderbla for German, Saga Baldoria for Italian and Perfume California for English. It starts with a level assessment and calls its range beginner to proficient; A1 to C1 is our reading. After a 7-day free trial, Basic is from €14 a month (up to 5 episodes a week), Premium from €21 and Gold from €31.50, which adds unlimited episodes, a certificate and on-demand tutoring. It suits a busy adult who likes a daily routine and a bit of wit. It will not get you speaking, so pair it with a tutor or an exchange.
