Duolingo, the world’s leading mobile learning platform, on October 12 in HCM City announced it is expanding to new subjects of music and math.

Accordingly, the new subjects are able at Duocon, the largest free global event at the intersection of language, learning, and technology.

“We are focused on building the best education possible and making it universally available. With our expansion into music and our updates to math, we’re one step closer to that goal,” said Luis von Ahn, co-founder and CEO.

The new math course will include more advanced real-world math skills, including calculating tips and hourly wage, to sharpen adult learners’ mental math.

To help learners advance towards their goals, Duolingo also announced a new immersive learning experience for advanced English, a curriculum designed for English learners at more advanced levels of language proficiency.

Duolingo’s global community of more than 74 million monthly active learners complete 9 billion exercises a week. Duolingo is the most popular language-learning platform and the most downloaded education app worldwide.

The app makes learning new languages fun with bite-sized lessons that feel like playing a game. The company's mission is to develop the best education in the world and make it universally available.
