Whether your focus is languages, music, math, or chess, serious learners know the importance of reviewing old content! This practice helps keep your skills fresh through repetition so that you are ready to use everything you’ve learned when you need it.
In addition to building personalized practice into your learning path, Duolingo gives you the ability to review previously-seen content whenever you want. Here’s how!
Find your section in the course
First, find your current place in the course. Tap on the colorful unit label that includes the section number, unit number, and unit name. Unit labels come in many colors—the one in the example below is the blue rectangle at the top of the screen.
When you tap on the unit label, you’ll see your current section in the course, along with those you’ve already completed and those that follow where you are now.
Go to other sections of the course
Next to each section in our language courses, you’ll see its Duolingo Score. You can tap on the Score to see details like the section’s CEFR level—the international proficiency standard we use to design our courses—and the vocabulary and grammar it covers.
For example, in the Italian course for English speakers, Section 2 covers part of the CEFR level A1 content, and learners will focus on possessives, the difference between conoscere and sapere, and contractions.
If you want to return to the units in a section, tap on the section label to open that part of the course. To return to your current place in the learning path, simply tap on the “X” at the top left to close the section list.
Learning when you want, how you want!
Duolingo gives you control over whether you want to learn new content and move down the learning path or review targeted topics.
