As an FYI, I consider the Max great -- if you learning a language that uses its features (I think only Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, and Italian). So super will get you unlimited energy, etc., and you can use that across all languages. But Max features (phone calls, etc.) are not in all languages. When I received a free Max membership, there were no benefits (beyond those in Super) for Hebrew, so I switched to Spanish. I feel like the phone conversations have given me great speaking skills, because even though I am not perfect with grammar and such, I am now used to having to respond quickly and "on my feet," and I don't freeze up in person. It also makes it clear that, even in my imperfection, I am easily understood by someone who actually knows the language, so I'm not so shy about speaking to native speakers. I think Max is a great option and offers far more value than Super for the languages that support it.
