Among them English conversation and English vocabulary are the most widely used applications. Furthermore, every second person who uses these applications says that these are effective. 65% of the women mentioned the they can learn as if they played a game, 61% said they can learn without paying for it (only 33% of the men replied in the same way for each question).
