I'm a Danish teacher and I built an app that explains grammar mistakes instead of just marking them wrong
I teach Danish to adults at a language school in Silkeborg. For the past several months I've been building an app called Dansk Plus in my spare time, and it's at a point where I'd like some honest criticism.
The reason I started: when my students practise on their own, most apps just tell them an answer is wrong and move on. That teaches nothing. So this one explains every mistake — what the rule is, and which common error you just made — using actual grammatical terms.
What it does:
- Grammar quizzes across 13 topics — nouns, verbs, word order and so on.
- Practice module tests for DU2 and DU3, built like the real ones.
- An AI teacher that goes through your mistakes after a module test and can explain them in 10 languages. Only the explanation is translated — the examples stay in Danish, because Danish is what you're learning.
- Streaks, XP and friends, if that sort of thing keeps you going.
What it doesn't do:
- No DU1 module tests. I haven't written them yet.
- No listening or speaking practice. This is reading, writing and grammar.
- It's a few weeks old with fewer than 100 users, most of them my own former students. You will find rough edges.
Price: grammar quizzes, lessons, streaks and friends are free. Module tests and the AI teacher are 29 kr/month, with one free test first so you can see what it's like before deciding.
Privacy: data is stored in the EU, I don't sell it, and there's no advertising or tracking in the app. Full policy at danskplus.dk/privacy.

I'd genuinely like criticism, especially of the grammar explanations themselves. If something is wrong or badly explained, tell me and I'll change it — I'm the one writing them.
