Lingokoo's vision is to make English learning accessible worldwide. We do this by creating English learning material that both students and teachers can use.

The four defining principles from the Berkeley Haas School of Business serve as inspiration to how Lingokoo operates:

• Beyond Yourself: By developing and sharing material for others to use we help bring education to people around the world.
• Question the Status Quo: Can we help create an alternative model to the textbook for learning English?
• Confidence Without Attitude: Becoming a better teacher means being receptive to coaching and learning from  others. Creativity requires an open mind.
• Students Always: We're not afraid to try new teaching techniques and we're always trying to learn how to create more compelling learning material.

When I was an MBA student at Berkeley I always thought about creating something related to English language learning. Many of my classmates were from  Cisco and Intel, so the idea of creating something for ESL and EFL learners was like showing up to a math class with an abacus.

But I didn't care. The idea of Lingokoo went through many powerpoint iterations and I finally decided to start creating video content with worksheets as a hobby. I wanted Lingokoo to be different from other learning material online. This is now a project for me which I enjoy working on. Some of my worksheets are better than others but the learning process and self-reflection of creating something are invaluable. And along the way I've been able to involve some of my friends to lend their voice or appear in videos.

We hope you enjoy Lingokoo.
