The academy then suggests exercises at the right level for you.It also allows you to watch videos and improve yourself until you reach level 5—the highest level.

    If you are interested in other subjects click ^“ LEARN ^” to see all topics on offer. Try “Art History”，for example. This will take you to all the things in that area like text articles videos and questions. You can also put key words into the search box to see related topics.

    Don’t worry if you find it difficult to follow the courses in Eng?lish.The courses have been translated into other languages such as Chinese.
