London, 30 October 2008 – Myngle, the global language marketplace that allows people around the world to learn or teach any language at any time, today announced reaching a milestone of over 100,000 unique visitors a month, 23,000 registered users, up to 120 bookings a day and paid lessons that have doubled from August into September. The level of interest clearly demonstrates the increasing popularity of online interactive language learning.
Due to its increasing success Myngle will go fully live out of beta today and continue to play an important role in the shift of offline language learning to an online interactive learning market. The site enables students to find a wide range of native teachers as well as a wide variety of courses. Teachers and language schools can also use Myngle to increase their reach enabling them to target a global market otherwise inaccessible to them, with low acquisition costs and a complete e-learning infrastructure. According to the latest figures, students from 152 different countries and teachers from 62 countries are currently active on Myngle
Myngle offers a unique interactive platform that breaks down geographical limitations, as it makes it unnecessary for teachers and students to be in the same room, and allows students and teachers to get together for real time lessons anytime and anywhere in the world. Myngle offers its community a toolkit for synchronous learning, which consists of VoIP (Skype) plus integrated whiteboard, an online payment system (PayPal), and an integrated feedback system that is made up of comments and ratings left by students who were taught by the relevant teacher.
“We are very happy with the ongoing success that shows the increasing popularity of our unique interactive learning platform Myngle. We bring language teachers and students from all over the world together and provide the possibility of both teaching and receiving live one-on-one classes from the comfort of your home whenever and wherever you want”, states Marina Tognetti, founder and CEO of Myngle.com. “With the help of our community we continuously search for new features and initiatives in order to meet individual needs.”
Research shows that currently Mandarin is the most popular second language with 1,052 million students learning it, followed by English with 508 million students although this is most likely to peak at around 2 billion in the next 10 to 15 years.[1]
To celebrate going fully live out of beta, Myngle is now offering one month unlimited 30-minute lessons for only 49 Euros to the first 200 students subscribing at
