About the innovation

AUTHENTIC AND CONTEXTUAL

ImmerseMe aims to be the world’s best academic language tool.

Content is differentiated into three levels: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced.

Learners are progressed through 4 scaffolded learning modes: Pronunciation > Dictation > Translation > Immersion.

Choose from over 3,000 interactive scenarios across 9 languages: German, Spanish, French, English, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, Greek and Indonesian.

The layout of lessons can be tailored to match your scope and sequence/curriculum plan.

Examples include: ordering a baguette in Paris, buying a bento box in Tokyo or trying tapas at a Spanish restaurant.

ImmerseMe will prepare learners with the practical language skills they need to thrive as a global citizen.

HundrED Academy Reviews

I work with immigrants in the US and other countries, and I see how an innovation like this can offer an excellent opportunity for learners to practice and "feel" language.

High impact due to a large number of users and widely shown coverage in different media of its use in learning. High scalability due to the ease of adoption by teachers and schools.
