I’m Guatemalan and I work at Google as a software engineer! When my uncles and aunts found I was into code they sent me an interview of Luis. He made me think it’s possible to strive for more!
Yeah. Some people say power corrupts people and that may be true. But usually, if you put a corrupt person into power, they'll start screwing things up from the start.
The BEST mistake I ever made was accidentally subscribing for a year to Duolingo. And when it expired I subscribed once again. I’ve now been using it for almost 2 years without missing a day. And I’m actively studying 3 main languages, while being on the top 20 user XP for 15 weeks on the diamond league. Edit: I know it can be free, but I’d rather pay for the small perks & now knowing it’s a great company & workplace, I feel better too
@@harshalg7647 I've had success with it. The problem is people stick to Duolingo too long instead of moving on to reading and listening in their target language.
Could you please tell us how your progress in those learning languages been? Like have it been to good help? Can you actually speak those languages now?
U know there's no limit to what kind of nonsense people would pay for. Diamond League? User xp?I gotta admire the marketing genius who came up with a way to monetise some stupid activity that could have been free into getting them to fork out billions.
@@AjeroZ I had a +500 day streak in Spanish on DuoLingo. Although I can read/write fairly well in Spanish at this point, my listening/speaking is still fairly poor. I'm not used to processing the words in my head when listening/speaking since I haven't trained enough at speaking speed
I didn’t know Duolingo went public...wow, billion dollar company...I’m not surprised...an app that provides free education? There will always be a demand for this
Free and billion dollar company does not make sense. This is an over inflated company propped up by nothing more than VC funding rounds. This will deflate hard in a recession.
Interesting how with digitizing age also allows for free education. When it comes to programming, this is starting to become a big thing. Lots of programmers no longer have to go to a 4 year college, they can learn how to code for free on UA-cam, and the personal projects you create is viable on your resume and on interviews. Companies don't care about your degree, if you show you have a good knowledge of programming and also still open minded and wanting to learn they'll hire you.
Unbelievable. Out of all the successful entrepreneurs featured on MI this guy is clearly his own class; His ability to scale good business ideas into blueprints that actively impact the world is priceless, and befitting the title genius.
Not gonna lie, I really like Duolingo. I forgot to cancel my free trial before I got charged for the year subscription so I’ve been making sure I keep my streak going and I’m not even mad about it. haha
Did you actually manage to learn a language to a functional level through Duolingo yet? I've met tons of fans who have put in hours a day for a year+ but never anyone who's gotten a good return for the time they put into the app.
Making the Duolingo app feel like a game is definitely one of the best and most successful things about it! It honestly has really helped me become engaged and sort of addicted to learning more and more routinely.
Thank you for creating this app! It has been fabulous learning another language and doing on my own time!! Have been doing now for 8 months and still going strong!!
What a talented young man, your story is just like mine. Most times, it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month. Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years to doubt that opportunities are bound in the financial markets. The only thing is to know where to focus.

Talent doesn't go un-nurtured. If you have talent but are afraid to pursue the next steps to have your ideas come to fruition then you are dead in the water before you begin. While dualingo is a good site it is part of the very over inflated tech bubble with a valuation it does not deserve like so many other unicorns.
The cost of living is making people go into different businesses anyways, but my problem is that the rate at which money gets finished on little purchases is so surprising
I make good income too from bitcoin trading and its been my most reliable source of income at the moment. With profits I've made so far I don't think i can get broke or lack anything.
I admire him because he is from Guatemala, my home country. Thank you for innovating!! I also know he has set up education busses near the us and mexico border with duolingo tablets. This allows the kids and families to learn English and prepare before coming in. Great way to provide to the communities. Thank you! I wish to meet you one day.
Because usually d0ùchebag CEOs (much like many celebrities) usually do anything to get peoples attention & praise, while normal people are low key & not arrogant. The same reason why most smart people don’t have to prove they’re smart to other people & usually don’t like the attention, while those compensating feel the need to let everyone know how “smart” they are & belittle those who might not be as intelligent
I love this geek so much 😂 I can say I use one of his creations in each day of my life now. What so great about him is he really makes technology worked for us, not we addicted to technology uselessly like most of the social media.
I fell love with Duolingo and spent hours on the app learning Spanish every week. It's also good to know they offer free service (I am paying for pro and think it's worth every $ for serious learner)
Why? If anyone deserves to be famous is this guy, inspiring future generations to think and use their brains, maybe then the world would be heading in the right direction
Me too. It’s the 3rd most spoken language in the region I live in, in the US so it’ll actually be useful & I can surprise some Haitian friends & coworkers in the process
Duolingo is such a great App. We don't necessarily need to travel to learn some languages when that can be done from home and you won't have to have a hard time adapting when you visit other countries because of language barrier.
You need a lot more than Duolingo, friend. This is coming from a lifelong polyglot. If you don't use it, you lose it. Travelling and immersing yourself in the culture is the most effective way to learn, and retain what you learn. The next best thing is books (lots of them), shows, music and *most of all* regular conversation with native speakers. You won't get there with just apps.
Like the story, but come on producer of CNBC, I think a little bit too much with the no money to his name statement and pointing out from Guatemala. It sound that you are trying to stretch the fact he did not have nothing he was poor. I have to agree with the comments that did not started with nothing, that is not true, I lived in Guatemala for 25 years. Yeah for sure he did not have money to his name, the fact who his family is, makes a game changer in a country like Guatemala opens doors, in his case was a scout from Duke. For sure he took advantage of the door opening.
The cost of living is making people go into different businesses anyways, but my problem is that the rate at which money gets finished on little purchases is so surprising
I make good income too from bitcoin trading and its been my most reliable source of income at the moment. With profits I've made so far I don't think i can get broke or lack anything.
Amazing. I get both a little discouraged to know how far I am to become someone as smart as him, but also excited because there's still a lot to discover.
A rich kid growing up in a poor country. Starts an online business in the early days of the internet and sells it and makes a few million. Uses that money and does it again, then finally uses THAT money to launch an amazing multi-billion dollar company everybody knows about. Sounds a bit like an underrated Elon Musk! Well done, and I'm very grateful for the pleasant things you said to me during the early days on Duolingo when we had the opportunity to post things, Luis von Ahn!
