Our most learned language in Transparent Language Online: English.
And of the 36 languages we teach English in, one language has been surging: Ukrainian.
Since the release of the beginner English for Ukrainian speakers course, it’s become the 4th most learned English pair among library patrons.
Which makes sense given that libraries have taken the lead on welcoming Ukrainian newcomers to their communities.
To help those newcomers dive straight into learning English without having to figure out how to navigate the app in English, we’ve added Ukrainian localization.
Ukrainian speakers can now flip a switch (ok, click a button) for an entire learning experience in their native language. Every button. Label. Lesson name. Activity directions.
