Swap Language is much more than a language school

We help internationals belong anywhere.

We are on a mission to help the 281 million internationals working abroad to feel that they belong in their new home. We work together with companies to give their international employees the most effective and flexible language learning to communicate and participate in their local community.

We make learning fun.

We have all spent years in a normal classroom trying to learn languages, and we believe there is a more effective and fun way to succeed. Swap Language focuses on making language learning more flexible, entertaining, and context-based, so it is relevant for international employees to learn languages.

We fit learning into your busy lifestyle.

We all lead busy lives, and we believe it is important to make language learning as flexible as possible. International employees should be able to learn whenever it suits them. They should be able to do lessons whether they are in the office or work remotely from another country. With Swap Language, they can.

We value flat hierarchies, clear communication, and full ownership and responsibility.

How learning with Swap Language works

We believe that anyone can learn a language if the lessons are relevant and entertaining. With our flexible on-demand lessons, the learner can take lessons wherever and whenever it suits their busy schedule. Doing the lessons feels more like watching your favourite series than studying.

Real-life conversation

Language is a way for us to connect with other human beings, and therefore we focus on relatable topics for our learners. We use topics that are relevant to their daily lives so they can achieve their real-life goals.

Practice makes perfect

We make grammar fun to learn, but grammar is not enough. Language learning is like any other skill: You need to practice. Once a week, our learners have a video call with a motivated teacher so they can practice what they have learned in conversations.

Real-life conversation

Follow your progress

There are quizzes apart of the learning flow to ensure that you know exactly where you are on your learning journey. This way, you will be able to see how you are progressing.

Evaluation & Assessment

When your international employees are learning a language, it is important to give them the best start. You and your international employees are invited to an online live presentation with one of our teachers who will focus on motivating them for what they will be learning and give them a guided tour of the courses. Shortly after, your employees will have an individual level assessment, to help them get the perfect start.

Quizzes and tests

To make sure that new knowledge is being stored in the long-term memory, the courses have customized quizzes and tests along the way. This ensures that your employees are learning how to use what they are learning in their own lives.

Certifications

When an employee finishes a course, we offer a module test. If this test is passed, the employee receives a certificate.

Planning the course for your organization

We know your employees are busy working in your organization and life in general. That is why we are more focused on the well-being of the employee. Together we will plan their estimated time of learning. We value space and time for the employee to gain the confidence and speaking practice needed to make your organization stronger and more united.
