Eager to learn a second language but not ready to lay down cold, hard cash for a tutor or official language certification? If you're interested in learning German, French, Spanish, Portuguese or Italian, we recommend checking out Duolingo, a completely free language learning tool, with absolutely no hidden fees. 

Duolingo's unique business model allows the company to offer free language learning features to tens of thousands of users without charging a penny. How, you ask? Well, as part of the learning process, students translate real-world documents for companies and organizations, providing a valuable service as they work towards becoming fluent in a foreign language. Duolingo earns a profit from this translation service, allowing the company to operate without charging language learners.
