Learning a language for work? Your employer may pay for it.

Many employers cover language training when it helps you do your job: working with clients, colleagues or a team in another country. It is worth asking.

Our classes are live and online, in small groups or one to one with a tutor. You pay by the month for credits: a group class costs 2 credits and an individual class 4. You can cancel at any time, and you get an invoice for each plan payment.

You do not have to wait for an answer to start: you can take a free class today.

Your plan's invoices are one click from the app. Log in, open Settings, then Billing, and select "See recent transactions". That opens Stripe, our payment provider, where you will find an invoice for each payment to attach to your expense claim.

If you bought credits in a one-off purchase, Stripe emailed you a receipt when you paid. Look for it in the inbox of the email address you paid with.

The Billing page also has this email with your name, your language and your plan already filled in.
