How it works

New to the language, or do you understand a little?

Two modes for every clip, and you can switch any time. Focus takes one sentence at a time. Flow is a scrollable feed of videos at your level.

Focus is built on second language acquisition research: listen before you read, effort before the reveal, retrieval instead of flashcards. The best way to start, and just as useful on a hard clip years in.

What learners say

Listening practice that keeps you going

Focus Mode is exactly what I was hoping for. The guided language learning approach makes it much easier to know what to do next and removes a lot of the friction. I also love the Learner Insights, Smart Subtitles and Expressions.

Reelang is exactly what I was looking for. I love Dreaming Spanish, but I was really sad I couldn’t find a similar tool for Portuguese. Reelang fits perfectly.

Love the constant flow of videos playing one after the other. Getting constant flow of content at a certain level is a game changer for me.
