I’m a real language-lover. Therefore, I’ve always wanted to be fluent in several languages. Unfortunately, aged thirty and after many, many false starts, I’m still only fluent in English! But hitting thirty made me determined that I will achieve my life goals — including fluency in several languages.
To keep my language learning on track, I’ve been doing regular updates. Read all my Project Polyglot Parry posts here.
I’m very proud to say that I completed the English>Swedish tree in Duolingo on 29/10/16! 😀 They even gave me this handsome (virtual) trophy!
My next goal is to complete the Duolingo English for Spanish speakers course. At my current rate of two-three sessions a day, I reckon I can finish the new tree by the end of March. And after that, I want to get to the maximum level possible on Duolingo in Spanish and Swedish: level 25 (that’ll take a while, though).

Wow! I want to complete the Russian skill tree just like you did with Swedish.
Cheers! You’ve just gotta keep at it. A little every day (say, half an hour) is better than a lot every so often. Good luck!
I have reached level 6 and I have also started with Irish but Russian is my main focus now.
The key is a little a day (say, half an hour or so), and just keep plugging away.
