Vision Education with two new clients: Oxford University Press and Berlitz Japan

We have some great news for you! VE with two new clients: Oxford University Press and Berlitz Japan.  The partnership is part of our SAAS (Software as a Service) model. Both providers rely on our world-leading and highly flexible technical platform.

What convinced our new education partners?

“Our technical platform, on which our two own apps “LearnMatch” and “LearnMatch Business” are also operated, convinced our new customers,” says Manfred Kastner, founder of Vision Education. With the successful concept of flexibility and the extensive possibilities, the platform was able to win over our partners in the language learning industry.

With the “Oxford English Vocabulary Trainer 2”, OUP acts as its own publisher worldwide. The Vision Education team was responsible for creating the app and integrating OUP’s high-quality content into the app. The app is available worldwide and already has a large number of users. OUP, as the largest university publisher in the world, embodies the vision: “Education can change lives”, and therefore OUP actively shapes the future of education.

The partnership with Berlitz Japan is based on the business part of the Vision Education platform – the “LearnMatch Business” app and was implemented in cooperation with a Japanese distribution partner. The focus here is particularly on children who want to learn English in a playful way. Children can pick up the nuances of a foreign language much easier and faster and are quite capable of speaking without an accent. Therefore, the focus of this collaboration is primarily on pronunciation exercises and an adequate implementation and presentation of the corresponding content.

Berlitz Japan- another customer with a long tradition

For over 140 years, Berlitz has been providing language instruction and cultural training to open doors to a new world for students. The Berlitz Method is a proven, task-based technique that gives students the confidence and skills to speak a new language immediately. Intensive exposure to the new language and culture allows for total immersion and the experience of living abroad. The intensive classes focus on speaking the language. To this day, this is one of the most effective methods of language learning.

Justifiably proud of their achievements!

VE with the two new clients, Berlitz Japan and Oxford University Press, continues the successful growth of the B2B track. Working with such renowned and historic figures in education is an incredible achievement of which we are particularly proud. Our COO, Alfred Hofer, is incredibly pleased to welcome further renowned partners for our B2B and SAAS services and expects even more in the medium term who will recognize the successful concept in time and use the leading technology accordingly. The future is innovative, and, after all, one must never stop reinventing oneself.

Models conquer the fashion world with ModelManagement.com and LearnMatch

english4modelsInternational cooperation between ModelManagement.com and LearnMatch has resulted in an innovative concept called “English4Models”. A common goal is to ease communication between agencies, clients and colleagues. The elimination of language barriers and the development of an industry-specific vocabulary ensures more successful castings and thus successful international careers. A collaboration between the revolutionary online model community from Barcelona and our language learning app is thus forging a new path for interest-based language learning.

What does a model need in the 21st century?

The modelling world is more diverse than ever. All the models of today need not only great charisma and other prerequisites, but they also need an understanding of the business of modelling and the main language of the industry – English. Moreover, the fashion industry has always struggled with the recurring problem of the lack of English skills of many of its up and coming models.

A considerable number of careers fail due to insufficient communication between international companies and models. ModelManagement.com and LearnMatch have addressed this problem to render it easier for newcomers to enter and thrive in the fashion industry. Established models can also benefit from this concept. They are enabled to refresh their English skills and fill in knowledge gaps relating to the Dos & Don’ts of the fashion industry.

What does the English4Models content include?

ModelManagement and LearnMatchEnglish4Models includes vocabulary specific to the fashion industry as well as general industry knowledge. In addition, users have access to specially produced videos produced by the Model Academy. These videos allow experienced models to accompany and advise those who are still unsure whether and how they dare enter the industry. Through the use of multimedia content, models are motivated to stay focused and continue to hone their skills. The content produced by the Model Academy is coordinated with learning content from the English4Models course. These two modules complement each other and are perfectly suited to deepen the learning of users. Successful models reveal essential insights from their modelling experience. That way they help newcomers to gain a foothold in the modelling business.

 

With great English skills and stunning charisma, an international career must be round the corner. We are convinced that future graduates of the Model Academy and the English4Models courses will find many doors opening. Moreover, dissatisfied customers at castings will soon be a thing of the past.
