15. July 2019 Awards, Events, Languages, Media Comments Off on Vision Education in the Finals! :O

Yes, Vision Education actually made the FINAL! But no, it’s not what you think. It wasn’t a football final. 😛 We made it to the EdTechXEurope Final!

We were among the TOP 20 EdTechXGlobal Award 2019 Startup Finalists at EdTechXEurope. This position put us in good company, alongside CENTURY Tech, StudySmarter, Eduten, New Campus, iHeed and Chalk. Being surrounded by such inspiring business minds truly enriched us.

Vision Education as a Finalist

But what is EdTechXEurope?

EdTechXEurope is the learning community’s largest get-together. It took place for the 7th time this year. The awards ceremony was held on 18 June in London’s The Brewery. Over 900 thinkers from over 60 countries came together to exchange ideas, innovations and technologies. “Learning is the New Tech” was the motto. Awards were presented in three categories: EdTechXGlobal Startup Awards, EdTechXGlobal Scale-Up Awards and EdTechXGlobal Impact Awards. Vision Education was nominated in the EdTechXGlobal Startup category. There the focus was on the most significant innovation and the biggest growth in 2018. A global jury had to consider a number of factors, including scale and market impact. The same jury selected the finalists and winners of the EdTechXGlobal Startup.

We warmly congratulate the winners in each category. Also we look forward to remaining connected with them in the years to come. Together we can contribute and make this world a better place. We are convinced of that.

1 million downloads!
26. June 2019 Events, Languages, Media Comments Off on 1 million downloads!

Today we are proud to share the news that we have cracked the 1 million download mark! Our journey started in 2017, with the idea of creating an app that enables users to learn languages in a way that fits in with their lives and their passions.

It’s been two years full of roller coaster moments. Every day we give our best to improve the app in order to provide our users with the best language learning experience possible. New ideas have been created, new features and functions have been added – all for our motivated language learners.

We couldn’t be happier with today’s achievement – an achievement which is rooted in the input from our fantastic users. Maybe you are one of those amazing people who helped us with feedback, or simply gave us the chance to put a smile on your face along with all your unique LearnMatch experiences. You have all contributed a great deal towards helping us create this language learning platform with all its amazing features and functions. Thank you for that!

We are looking at a really big number: 1 million LearnMatch downloads. O-N-E M-I-L-L-I-O-N. Wow! That makes us very proud and spurs us on to further increase this number and help more people around the world to learn languages with our app.

We hope that you will continue to accompany us on this path!

fleoo.net wins BUS2BUS Pitch 2019
12. June 2019 Awards, Languages, Professions Comments Off on fleoo.net wins BUS2BUS Pitch 2019

Dear LearnMatch friends,

 

fleoo.net wins BUS2BUS Pitch 2019 with Vision Education as a strong partner on board!

On March 19th, 2019, BUS2BUS took place in Berlin. The Startup Pitches jury – consisting of journalists, venture capital donors and representatives of the bus industry – awarded startup fleoo.net with the first prize. fleoo.net convinced the jury of the innovation enshrined in its language learning and navigation app for bus drivers, which is based on the phase6 Berufe app and developed by Vision Education.

What is fleoo.net?

fleoo.net knows that international drivers are crucial for the modern bus industry. However, in their opinion, a lack of language and local knowledge poses a problem, as it leads to extended and unproductive training periods and causes expensive mistakes. The fleoo assistance package overcomes language barriers, promotes language competence, documents progress and, for example, gets bus drivers work-ready in no time. fleoo.net also helps to prevent 96% of mistakes.

How exactly does the app work?

fleoo.net is divided into fleoo.nav, fleoo.com and fleoo.ml. fleoo.nav supports bus drivers to manage scheduled services, learns all stops and danger points and helps inexperienced drivers stick to the timetable. fleeo.com networks dispatching, traffic management and drivers, provides pictures and position data. In this way, language barriers are managed easily and faults are reported correctly. fleoo.microlessons enables drivers to train in their chosen language independently of time and place. Technical terms are learned and the exchange of information with passengers is facilitated.

But what is BUS2BUS?

As a high-end platform for bus companies, bus manufacturers, suppliers, service providers and visionaries, BUS2BUS helps to enliven the industry with new ideas and solutions. BUS2BUS functions as a combination of a trade fair with a comprehensive range of products, a congress and a Future Forum, at which new future markets are jointly developed.

We are very proud to be part of this success story and wish to continue to share such victories with our partners in the future.

Dear friends and partners of LearnMatch!

If you have updated your LearnMatch App in the past few weeks, you will already have noticed the exciting recent changes: LearnMatch has been revised to incorporate a light and extremely modern design.

What you may not have noticed immediately are the developments made underneath the surface: A lot of new features, the new onboarding process, the integration of a regular prize competition and new exercise types round off the all-improved app. And last, but by no means least, the introduction of thenew dictionary: revolutionising LearnMatch and bringing the app into a whole new dimension of vocabulary training.

This multilingual reference dictionary has an extensive vocabulary, offering users the opportunity to translate words via LearnMatch by simply clicking on them online or in e-mails and/or storing vocabulary in the so-called Personal Dictionary. This enables users to identify, store and train with tricky words as regularly as necessary. An absolute innovation – and an incredibly valuable feature for users with advanced language skills.
