Since 1979, Global LT has delivered instructor-led language training to global corporations. The addition of Mango Languages’ comprehensive, web-based learning system to the Global LT portfolio of services is a result of requests by client companies to accommodate the mobile work styles of today’s employees, according to Suzanne Smulsky, Global LT’s Marketing & Communication Director. ‘For some time, clients have asked us for training that students could access anytime, any place as a means of supplementing the instructor-led training they receive from us. We’ve found the answer with Mango and the flexibility it gives our students. Students can use Mango wherever there is an internet connection to help accelerate learning.’

Mango’s goal is to make the process of learning a new language as exciting and stimulating as possible, according to Mike Teshuba, Founder and Chief Technology Officer. Mango’s philosophy revolves around the idea that language learners want to see fast, reliable results. ‘We recommend a language student spend 30-45 minutes a day, four to five days a week with Mango for about one year to achieve an Intermediate-High level of speaking proficiency.’

According to Hortensia Neely, Global LT President, expanding her company’s offerings to include online language training uniquely positions Global LT among other language services providers. Says Neely, ‘I believe our instructor-led language training is already the best in the business and we have just strengthened our offering with our association with Mango. We couldn’t be happier. And I know our students will be too.’
