For the last six years, the number of refugees worldwide has increased, now surpassing 68 million people. Here, Dr. Katie Nielson recaps her insightful SXSW EDU 2019 panel discussion on this topic with other leaders from higher education and workforce development.
It is predicted that online videos will account for 82% of internet traffic by 2022, and there’s no question that they have become part of our everyday lives. So why not take advantage of the affordances that they offer for language learning?
A new, independent study by the American Institutes for Research demonstrates Voxy’s efficacy in significantly improving learners’ English language proficiency compared to learners using traditional language learning platforms.
The Language Co, a language school based in Chile offering in-house and on-site face-to-face English classes partnered with Voxy to bring effective and personalized business English training to users across Chile and Argentina.
One of the questions we get asked all the time about Voxy is whether or not the platform is appropriate for beginners. Here’s why the answer is a resounding yes.
Language learning works best when learners practice with materials that are interesting to them and relevant to their goals. That’s why Voxy’s patented technology takes authentic pieces of media (articles, video transcripts, images, tweets, etc.) and turns them into English lessons quickly.
Quality Training Solutions (QTS) es uno de los proveedores de servicios de enseñanza y formación empresarial más importantes de Australia y la región Asia-Pacífico. En Vietnam, su programa de enseñanza de inglés—facilitado por Voxy—ayuda a muchos profesionales de diversas organizaciones a progresar en su carrera y en su vida.

Quizás, parte del problema se deba a que no estamos aprovechando todo lo que la enseñanza impulsada por tecnología puede ofrecer a la ciencia del aprendizaje.
Last week I joined Kaplan’s Trending in Education Podcast to discuss Voxy’s approach to teaching English to non-native speakers, using technology to improve learning outcomes, and how applicable lessons I learned from experiences teaching english to non-native speakers might be to the broader space of online learning end education. Listen to the episode here.
Now more than ever, the education industry is focused on “gamification,” or creating learning activities from games.
