He launched <a href=\"https:\/\/lingokids.com\/\">LingoKids<\/a> in 2015 based on \u2018playlearning\u2019, an approach that makes education enjoyable for children while helping them learn soft skills, such as creativity, compassion, and innovation in addition to academic curriculum.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This unique concept is a result of a partnership between the 500-backed platform and Oxford University Press. Parents can now choose from over 600 learning objectives and 1,200 activities that foster new skills.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lingokids is also committed to safeguarding data and is entirely ad-free, making it 100% kid-safe, so children can use the app independently.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Since its inception, the app has expanded to nearly every corner of the world and has over 78 million users. In addition to English, it is available in other languages including Dutch, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Russian.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The learning platform has even received backing from UNICEF, earning two badges for being cognitive-friendly and mobility-friendly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lingokids recently <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/4cwTYQE\">partnered with BenQ<\/a> to make the app available on BenQ Board, a whiteboard, display, computer, and wireless screen-sharing system featuring classroom tools for all subjects, including timers, rulers, protractors, and compasses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Read the full story <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3SpcJNZ\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Other stories you may have missed:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/dailymarkup1024\">SUPA<\/a> and TDCX join forces to help teams overcome the data hurdle and successfully leverage Generative AI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How ESG-led initiatives by <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/dailymarkup1025\">Grab<\/a> champion communities, boost businesses, and build a sustainable marketplace<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/dailymarkup1026\">DealCart<\/a> bags US$3M to help households in Pakistan rise up against inflation with access to affordable groceries<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Can founders and CEOs of deep tech companies be non-technical?
