Language Academy [iPhone]

Language Academy is a language learning game conceived to grow appetite for kids : 15-minute-workouts are prepared for your child every day to learn new vocabulary, get used to language listening, and train him to speak in that language.

We leverage gamification techniques to raise interest and improve diligence of the child while following the program.

It is designed for children aged 6 to 14 year-old (primary and middle school) and automatically adapts to his level and progress. This tool was thought out to accompany children during their academic learning. It allows them to progress by learning everyday, thus raising confidence and interest.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND

Have you ever wondered if your child was too distracted or if he/she simply needed a different approach?

While observing the functioning of the current educational system, we noticed that it’s still based on the classic method of providing information expected to be simply memorized and applied.

Our project aims at offering a tool able to fill the gaps of this system. It’s founded on two pillars :

- The Montessori method : this method’s primary mission is to help the child to build himself fully, independently to become a confident and responsible adult. This principle is at the core of our program : allow children to build confidence and interest while learning, thus proving him that he can perform well and progress continuously.

- The Pomodoro technique : a procrastination-busting strategy that advocates small work sessions in order to capture your whole attention in an optimal way, rather than long and tedious ones. To increase this effect, we added to the app a gaming dimension that we believe to be the best way of keeping a child’s attention nowadays.
