Industry Analysis
Learners develop the capacity to learn many languages via language learning. Bilingualism gives you a competitive advantage and serves as a cultural bridge. Furthermore, as students migrate to other countries in search of higher education, offline, hybrid, and online language learning courses are becoming increasingly popular to improve communication skills. The integration of artificial intelligence in e-learning, the rising importance of English for business and professional reasons, an increase in investments for English language learning start-ups and small businesses, and the low cost of English language learning applications contribute to the overall growth of the English language learning market. However, worries over data security and privacy are projected to stifle the English language learning market’s development (alliedmarketresearch).
Many students who go to another nation or city to attend a language course desire more than simply a formal language education, which is why language Plus programs are becoming more popular. Students may get the language instruction they desire while also getting an enjoyable experience with language Plus programs. Nonetheless, they are concentrated on the student’s field of studies, such as medicine or business. These are often known as language Plus programs since they provide a benefit in addition to basic language instruction.
Revenue for the Language Instruction industry declined an estimated 6.2% in 2020 (meticulousresearch) alone due to falling demand amid a sharp decline in international travel. However, as demand for travel picks up in line with the improving economy and drop in coronavirus cases, industry revenue will increase by an estimated 9.6% in 2021 (verifiedmarketresearch). As the economy has expanded over the majority of the five years to 2021, per capita disposable income has increased at a rate of 3.0%, leading to strong demand for industry products over the majority of the five years. In 2020, however, falling corporate profit, consumer spending, and travel demand had mitigated gains from prior favorable macroeconomic conditions.
Language + activity programs are popular among students who want to study English, German, Italian, or Spanish, as seen in the graph above. Language + activity programs will combine language instruction with some immersion experience, such as culinary excursions and photography sessions and visits to local sights. Language schools often choose activities that are popular in their area.
Language courses that contain a professional component are another popular choice under language Plus programs. Speech + business, language + marketing, and even language + medical are examples of frequent language Plus industry programs.
These programs are becoming more popular among professionals as globalization grows more prevalent and English becomes the universal language in many professions such as business, medical, and education. Individuals working in a specific field may study English (or any other language) while also learning the terminology and vocabulary used in their sector via language + industry programs.
Another popular trend is language programs grouped by age group, such as classes for persons aged 40 and up, 50 and up, 60 and up, etc. The baby boomer generation is particularly fond of these shows. They want a program that connects them with others who share their beliefs and interests and who wish to study at the same speed as them.
Language programs organized by age group are similar to language + activity programs. They enable kids to attend language classes while engaging in exciting, age-appropriate activities with their peers.
Be careful to address each age group’s interests, problems, and requirements when selling language programs grouped by age group. Assume it’s a group of 65 years old or older. In such a scenario, keep in mind that some people may have health conditions or mobility challenges that make walking or standing for long periods more challenging. It is critical to communicate how the program will address their requirements. As a general guideline, you should emphasize the possibility of meaningful social connection with like-minded individuals, the ability to meet intriguing people from all over the world, and any other particular advantages your program provides.
