1. DutchPod101 Video Lessons Now On The Android Version
2. Powerful Lesson Player Controls On the iPhone/iPad Version

What does this mean for you?

It means: more Dutch lessons to learn with and more control over them!

1. Video Lessons now on the Android App!

Are you a visual learner and love learning with video? Dutch Video lessons make up a major portion of the DutchPod101 learning system. They weren’t on the Android version before, but they are now.

Learn with video on the go by tapping on “Browse Lessons” and selecting any video series. (Note: This is already available for iOS.)

2. Powerful Lesson Controls for the iPhone & iPad!

Want to completely understand the Dutch that you hear? Or review conversations until they’re stuck in your head? Take control of any Audio Lesson with new playback controls. With new Playback Controls, you can…

• Review again and again by putting a track on repeat
• Slow down or speed up by setting the playback speed (0.5x, 1x, 1.5x or 2x)
• Skip back and forth between tracks within a lesson
• Backtrack or get ahead by jumping 10 seconds back or forward

Hello Listeners,

There’s a brand new feature out! But first, here’s a question…

How long have you been actively studying Dutch?

Why do we ask? Well, Einstein once said… “It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.”

While most people quit, the smarter ones (or the stubborn ones) stick with Dutch long enough to break through and see progress.

And if you think about it, time and effort are the two things that’ll ultimately dictate how far your Dutch will go. Look at it like this…

• Anyone with bigger muscles – they’ve spent more time at the gym than most.
• Anyone that’s a great artist – they’ve spent more time on their craft.
• Anyone that knows a ton of Dutch words – they’ve spent more time on picking up new vocabulary.
• And anyone that’s a great Dutch speaker – they’ve spent more time speaking Dutch.

It’s all about time and effort.

And that’s why you can now track your time and effort at DutchPod101 with a brand new feature, My Report. You can find it in “My Account” in the upper right corner of the DutchPod101 site. Or, just click here to log in and access it!

Here’s what you need to know: My Report tracks your personal study stats, like…

• Total Time Studied
• Flashcards Studied
• Lessons Completed

…and gives you the overall totals and breakdowns on a monthly and daily basis. That way, you’ll know exactly how much time and effort you need to put in.

Here are some cool things you can do with this:

1. Set small, achievable goals! Why? They’re easy! Achieving goals is motivating. And once you knock one out, just set a new one and start building progress over time!

• Study 10 flashcards and 10 lessons a day.
• Study for 30 minutes a day.
• 30 hours of time spent on lessons as a monthly goal.
• 50 lessons completed as a monthly goal.
• 200 flashcards studied as a monthly goal.

2. Get an overview of your effort. Sometimes, you just need to step back and see the big picture for a motivation boost. How long have you been been studying Dutch? And how much effort have you put in?

3. Adjust your learning routines. Feel like you’re not making enough progress? Take a look at how much time you’ve spent! If your current routine isn’t working out for you, spend more time and study more lessons.

And most importantly, use it to track your time and effort. These are the 2 things that’ll dictate your Dutch learning success. As Einstein said, “It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.”

Let us know what you think of this new feature! You can find My Report in “My Account” in the upper right corner of DutchPod101, or just click the link below.

Hello Listeners!

If you want to become better at speaking, writing and understanding Dutch, you NEED to know more words. (We’re sorry listeners, there’s no way around it!)

Plus, Slideshow View is available FREE to all users! Learn visually and with audio as you review the words in a slideshow. This is a new addition to the word lists!

Click here to see the new design and learn more vocabulary!

Your vocabulary lists now come with:
