A Babbel for Business Case Study
ORAYLIS, an IT company with 170 employees that develops modern data platforms, faced a challenge with employees lacking confidence in spoken and written business English. Manager Julia Ullenboom sought a modern language learning solution from a vendor that aligned with the company's forward-thinking ethos to replace their previous, more conservative provider. The need was essential for consultants and other departments to effectively communicate with a growing number of international clients and conduct internal processes like job interviews in English.
The solution implemented by Babbel for Business was its modern blended learning approach, which combined the Babbel app for flexible, on-the-go learning with virtual group and 1:1 classes. This provided employees with a pressure-free environment to practice speaking, receive personalized feedback, and learn at their own pace. As a result, employee confidence in using English grew noticeably within six months, contributing to more successful work on English-language projects. The program was so well-received that employees unanimously voted to continue using it, and Julia Ullenboom notes that Babbel for Business has contributed to the company's regular recognition as one of Germany's best employers.
