SwedishPod101 Goes Mobile! Master Swedish with One Thumb, No Squinting Necessary
Let’s play a game of Would You Rather?
Would you rather have this...
Over 300 Swedish learning CDs (yeah, CDs...remember those?) piled to the ceiling in your bedroom next to stacks upon stacks of expensive, outdated textbooks that teach you dry, humorless Swedish conversation.
...or this?
The same amount of content, shrunken down to fit onto your smartphone or tablet. And all those lessons? They’ve been updated to teach you vocabulary, grammar and culture so that learning Swedish is actually fun!
The answer is clear. You’d rather have the SwedishPod101 Mobile!
The biggest Swedish course. All on your tiny mobile device.
Introducing SwedishPod101 Mobile Beta!

Well, he was wrong, and I knew it.
I went on to master Japanese, a much harder language than the one Mr. Barry taught, obtaining a master's degree from a top Japanese university and founding a Japanese company headquartered in Tokyo.
My name is Peter Galante, founder of Innovative Language Learning, and I’m here to tell you the story of how I proved them wrong.
So how did I go from language class failure, to founder of a language learning company with over 200 million language lessons delivered?
