LingQ is a platform that teaches you a new language by reading material with your native language as a support. I don't like the design but the technique is very effective:

The native speaker tutors I use are through iTalki. You can get $10 credit applied to your account when you make your first purchase, or you can just check it out for free using this link, which also helps me out by allowing me to take more language lessons:

    I loved your analogy to mathematics. It made perfect sense! You compared the app to becoming astute with the fundamentals of arithmetic as a means of stepping to more complex structures and it hit me right in the feels. 🙂
  • Duolingo tried to brainwash me with the sentence: “I love Duolingo”
