TELL ME MORE® expands presence in European Education market

Paris, France - March 25, 2009

Auralog, language learning software pioneer and publisher of the award winning TELL ME MORE® language learning software has partnered with leading educational institutions throughout Europe to deploy Auralog’s TELL ME MORE® Campus courseware as part of their curriculum and language learning programs.

“At long last, Europe is on its way to becoming one big family… a continent of humane values … of liberty, solidarity and above all diversity, meaning respect for others' languages, cultures and traditions.” as quoted from the Laeken Declaration on the Future of the European Union.

Europe, today is rich in diversity of both culture and language. The European Union (EU) takes this very seriously and through multilingualism policy aims at ensuring multiculturalism and is keeping the issue of languages very much still high on the agenda. With 27 nation states, the European Union currently boasts a population of almost 500M citizens speaking over eighty (80) languages. In the EU an average of 1.3 – 1.6 languages are taught per pupil in schools, reinforcing the importance of multi-ligualism.

For over twenty (20) years TELL ME MORE® has been the language learning solution of choice in Europe. Focusing on all areas of language learning including the culture and heritage of the language TELL ME MORE® offers more content and more interactivity than any other solution.

With programs custom tailored around the unique needs of higher education students more and more educational institutions are adopting the solution either as a primary resource or as a supplement to the institution’s current in-class curriculum. Leading Educational Institutions recently adopting TELL ME MORE® language learning software include:

  • Germany: Goethe Institute and Konstanz University of Applied Sciences
  • Ireland: University College Cork (UCC)
  • Switzerland: Ecole hôtellière de Lausanne
  • Scotland: Aberdeen College
  • Netherlands: Roc West Brabant
  • England: Aston University and University of Kent
  • France: University of Nantes and Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts et Métiers
  • Northern Ireland: University of Ulster
  • Belgium: University of Liège

TELL ME MORE® is currently being used in hundreds of institutions throughout Europe. Developed by a team of Pedagogical Language Experts, TELL ME MORE® aligns with the European Standards for language learning and delivers both an engaging as well as academically sound learning experience.

The TELL ME MORE® Campus language learning solution was designed specifically to meet the unique needs of institutions of higher education. In Europe these institutions include traditional Universities and Colleges as well as focused institutions such as Business Schools and Engineering Schools where many of the diplomas require students to reach a specific level of fluency in a foreign language as part of their program.

With student populations needing to learn another language both for personal as well as professional growth opportunities TELL ME MORE® Campus delivers up to 2,000 hours of Social and Professional content. Educational Institutions are able to:

  • Deliver weekly current events lessons featuring a EuroNews television broadcast
  • Create custom learning paths for their students and classes
  • Ensure perfect pronunciation and unlimited speech practice with advanced speech recognition technology and 3-D pronunciation animations
  • Provide an engaging learning environment with over 35 different forms of student activity
  • Give students access to language learning 24/7

“Being able to assist leading institutions in their quest to deliver the best language learning programs possible in incredibly fulfilling,” comments Christian De Veyrac, Sales Director for TELL ME MORE® France. “Students today are demanding the best education in order to be competitive in the global marketplace. TELL ME MORE® enhances an institutions already successful program and takes it to the next level by providing advanced technology tools and an engaging interactive learner experience.”

The European Union is keenly aware of the importance of second language skills. In a recent EU commissioned study commissioned it is estimated that European Union businesses lose contracts worth on average €10 billion (euro) annually due to lack of language skills.
