Students need an app that makes learning a foreign language fun and motivating!

Solutions

The solution I came out with is a karaoke-style learning app that allows students to learn basic vocabulary while enjoying fun content in a gamified way that makes it easier to stick with. In addition, I added an attractive reward system and an update system to encourage users to learn.
