Language has an enormous influence on our everyday lives. Communication is a vital part of business and collaboration with individuals around us. The ability to use multiple languages is a sought after skill. With a recent survey revealing that the best time to learn a second language is before the age of 6 or 7, many would-be language learners may be deterred from giving a new language a try.

Lingoo has grown to what it is today through the strength of our community. Our members are what make our language immersion model the success that it is. Which is why, rather than borrowing capital from the banks for our business expansion, we have developed our own investment program.

We believe the people who know Lingoo best are best placed to invest in our future. We want our tribe to come on the journey with us. So what better way to decide on investing in Lingoo than by hearing from some of our members about why they love Lingoo.

Most of us would love to up sticks and head off overseas for an adventure. But with a gap year costing on average £7,700, many travellers have to look for alternative ways to fund their travels. One of the benefits of travelling abroad is gaining the work experience you need to take your career to the next level. But what about finding  flexible, well-paid work to support yourself while you travel? That can be a challenge.

It’s a savvy and forward-thinking parent who recognises the value of learning a new language, or two. But many language students aren’t inspired by traditional textbook learning. And developing precious social skills head down in a language app is all but impossible. This is where an international homestay program is a no-brainer... right? Right!

But, it’s not always as easy as that. What do you do when your child doesn’t share the enthusiasm for the idea of the language homestay experience?
