I have finished the JP1 and KR1 course, and also have over 100 hours in the app. I am a moderator for the Lingodeer subreddit and have been following Lingodeers development since it first came out. Lingodeer is all you need to say to summon me. Right now, I'm alternating between Talk To Me in Korean lessons and Lingodeer, while googling topics that I'd like to get more information on and getting my vocabulary lists from How To Study Korean. TL DR - Lingodeer is a great starting off point and is really well done, however, I would definitely suggest going through some other language sources at the same time. Turns out these two particles are considered the most confusing Korean particles for learners, which is fine, I'm learning the differences now, but it was really frustrating to assume that I had a concept down only to find out that it is way more complicated than I thought. However, after reading some lessons on How to Study Korean, I found out that 이/가 are sometimes used to mark subjects, while 는/은 are sometimes only used for emphasis. For example, in the beginning, it teaches that 는/은 mark the topic/subject of a sentence, while 이/가 mark the subject of an action. Doesn't give any frame of reference for its material and, probably for the sake of not overwhelming beginners, only explains the easy-side of a topic while saving the difficult parts for later. Instead, I would suggest looking up Korean videos or K-pop songs It has 'Stories' at the end of every lesson which are an attempt to teach some listening/conversation comprehension, but they're too short and you don't know enough vocab going into them. If I remember correctly, the second half costs around $20? I'm not there yet, but if it continues with this type of quality, I'll probably buy

Only the first half of the course is free.

Increases in difficulty/ mixes concepts at a good rate. (As far as I can tell) Good grammar explanations before lessons I'm powering through Lingodeer right now and am really enjoying it!
