About us

Bonjour! We’rethisislanguage.comand we do language learning in schools. We’ve built an amazing SaaS tech platform that helps us do this and plenty of kids already use us to level up their learning.

• Managing the design and production of promotional materials, such as websites and brochures.
• Overseeing the company’s attendance at events, such as trade shows, conferences, and festivals.
• Developing and looking after the budget and delivering a return on investment.
• Recruitment and management of the marketing team that might include PR and creative staff.
