Mango Languages is an excellent tool to be used by middle school and high school students. Students will not only learn the language in context, but they will also learn about the culture as well. With each lesson there is a cultural note. Example: when to use the Lei form (you formal) versus the tu form (informal). Students can also quiz themselves after each lesson. There are excellent drills for pronunciation, grammar notes and also culture details.

Duolingo is an excellent way for the students to practice the language by listening and repeating. The grammar exercises are set up with a list of words for the student to put in order to make a complete sentence. The vocabulary is set up with pictures, and the student listens for the word and picks the picture of the vocabulary word. There are also themes with this language app, such as food reviews that would compliment and reinforce a unit on meals.
