About Parlo

About company

Parlo Inc. was founded to meet the immense but underserved global demand for language learning: over 1.2 billion people are studying foreign languages today. Parlo's co-founders, Varun Bedi and Anish Rajparia, each speak five languages and have lived on four continents. They recognized the growing need for language instruction and saw the emerging potential of the Internet and other technologies to meet it. Working with a team of top technologists and educators, Bedi and Rajparia developed Parlo's Virtual Immersion approach. Using the interactivity of the Internet, Virtual Immersion surrounds learners with realistic, practical and fun information about the language and culture they're studying, replicating the study abroad experience online. Customers and media around the world agree that Parlo's online courses and e-mail lessons are uniquely effective and flexible. At Parlo, real-world learning means real-life success.
