We try new things. We move fast.
We use open feedback to improve ourselves.
We laugh, we work, we achieve together.
The origin of Ling is one of love and passion for connection and learning languages. Simon wanted to learn Thai, Khwan’s native language, to communicate better with her friends and family.
As with most Southeast Asian languages, there weren’t any good resources for learning Thai. So, they created their own. That was 6 years ago. Thanks to Simon and Khwan, the app education world was changed forever.
Now, Ling is the leading app for learning Thai and several other Asian and Eastern European languages, and the growing team comprises young, multilingual talent from around the world. With such a diverse team, we genuinely understand the importance of language learning and giving representation to overlooked languages.
Ling uses gamification to make learning fun and rewarding because, let’s face it, languages are hard! You can earn awards after every lesson is completed and even rank on our leaderboard. Ling carefully and thoughtfully creates lessons to make learning languages as easy as possible because every language deserves to be spoken.
