ABOUT REALLIFE ENGLISH

RealLife makes learning English a life-changing global adventure by creating experiences that inspire, connect, and empower learners to step outside the classroom and not just learn English, but LIVE it.

Our plan is to help tens of millions of learners use English in the real world to realize their full potential as globally conscious human beings, awake to the realization that no matter what divides us, what unites us is far greater.


Our Vision: to Create a World Beyond Borders


The launch pad for this vision is our multi-platform content: YouTube, blog, and podcast audience (which attract over 5 million visitors per month), and our global community of students and customers, who are the heart and soul of our business.

And finally, our rocket ship, the Twin Pillars of our Product Line:

Our YouTube Channel Learn English with TV Series, which helps learners go beyond the classroom and live their English. With over 200 videos and 3.3 Million subscribers, this is where we are currently making the biggest impact. YouTube helps us to market our Native Fluency Courses, which teach students to understand and use native English in their daily lives, by making it fun, natural, and convenient. “Fluent with Friends” uses the Friends TV series as the source material, while the “Native Immersion” course offers podcasts and other materials taught by us, following our unique, imaginative methodology.

I’d invite you to check out a recent video from each of our channels...

And this is all in service of our recently launched, RealLife App, which is a Real World English Learning Platform that we launched six months ago. It has two main purposes:

  1. Connect learners from around the world for speaking practice and cultural exchange via short, randomized video chats.
  2. Guide them beyond the classroom to understand fast-speaking natives with podcast episodes, transcripts, and other learning materials.
