All-in-one language training - Is it possible? How does it work?
English-learning executives, German for nursing staff, automotive mechatronics technicians or students - the requirements for foreign language training are as diverse as the working world itself. Can there even be such a thing as an all-in-one solution?
"The demand for company-wide all-in-one solutions has increased enormously in recent years," reports Philip Gienandt, Managing Director of the digital language school LinguaTV GmbH. In order to meet the diverse requirements, the Berlin-based eLearning provider has continuously developed its language training. The solution: a modular system, from which a need-based training can be put together according to the modular principle. But how exactly does this work? And what are the advantages of this system?
The modular system comprises two different teaching methods: instructor-led classes (individual or group courses; in a virtual classroom or on-site) and multimedia self-learning courses with video lessons and interactive exercises. These modules can be booked either individually or in combination and are optimally linked through a blended learning concept. As a third module, LinguaTV offers personal learning support from experienced coaches, which is increasingly being used as a supplement to the self-learning courses.
In terms of content, the language courses offered include a very broad repertoire of different languages for all levels from A1 to C1 according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Basic language and grammar skills are covered, as well as business language (Business English, German at work, etc.) and various industry- and subject-specific or technical courses. If required, this offering can be expanded without major effort, e.g. in the form of a subject-specific vocabulary trainer or lessons designed according to individual needs in the virtual classroom.
As a company-wide complete solution, LinguaTV's modular offering has several advantages. First of all, from a purely organizational point of view, it is a great relief to have a central contact person for all language training in the company. The cost-effective scalability of the self-learning courses and the simple administration ensure that the available resources can be used optimally. Under the hood is a cloud-based learning platform developed specifically for language training with LMS and CMS and a variety of automated processes from on-boarding to course and participant management to (personalized or anonymized) learning success monitoring including evaluations for the various target groups. Thanks to the variety of content and methods, it is then possible to put together precisely tailored training solutions from the different modules for every type of learner, even for employees with very different requirements. Thanks to the mobile app and teaching in the virtual classroom, training can be carried out regardless of time and location. Especially in times of Corona, an important (success) criterion. And should unforeseen changes occur, the language training can be adapted or expanded extremely quickly and flexibly.
Conclusion:
With its modular system, LinguaTV provides effective language training from a single source that can be flexibly adapted to different requirements. A true all-in-one solution for companies and educational institutions, as many years of practical experience have shown.
