HOW IT WORKS
Answer a few questions about why you want English and how much time you have. Take the level test, or start from the very first words. Each day the app gives you two to five small things to do: learn eight new words, listen to a conversation, rebuild a few sentences, review what is due. Ten minutes a day is enough.

MADE FOR YOU
Most English apps are written for people who already read English. Daybreak is not. The interface, the translations and the help are in Somali, Swahili or Spanish, and the English you hear comes from real speakers, not only a robot voice.
