What was holding me back was:
1. Spoken French goes much faster than the French spoken in the course so I wasn't able to understand most of it.
2. To form a sentence to express yourself in real life is much more difficult than to translate a given English sentence like in DuoLingo.
I agree that to be able to use a language you need to do more than just follow a course like DuoLingo; you have to read books, watch television and most important practice it in real life.
I went through all the levels.
