#129 Philippa Wentzel on Lingoda and Language Technology

Will technological advances keep impacting language learning
positively?


This is a question that Philippa Wentzel, Curriculum Team Lead of
the popular online language resource Lingoda, attempts to answer
in her discussion with Benny.


In this interview, Philippa explores topics such as how academic
learning can be unsatisfying, how Lingoda relies on UX analysis
to make sure they stay on track with learners’ needs, and the
pros and cons of using technology in language learning.


Philippa also explains how Lingoda offers learners control over
their language learning and curriculum by using a “choose your
own path” approach.
