## About the product

Lingo is a supplementary English learning program for South African schools, built to help Grade 5–9 students strengthen **reading comprehension**, **vocabulary**, **grammar**, and **writing** as foundations for learning across the curriculum.

Key capabilities include:

- **Granular diagnostic assessment** that identifies each learner’s strengths and learning gaps, including gaps dating back to **Grade 1**
- **Personalised catch-up plans** that adapt concept by concept, moving on when learners show mastery and slowing down to remediate where gaps exist
- **Functional English coverage across four pillars**: **Visual Communication**, **Oral Comprehension**, **Written Comprehension**, and **Language Structure**
- **Low teacher admin model** with no extra planning or marking required, plus **real-time progress data and insights** to support targeted interventions and parent engagement

Available on **Web** via internet access on a tablet or laptop, designed for about **60 minutes per week per subject**.

Target users are **school leaders and teachers** supporting learners in **Grades 5–9**.

It is notable in the South African context for addressing multilingual classroom needs with personalised pathways to English fluency, and for pairing with Reflective’s Numerate (Maths) to give schools a broader view of learner progress across English and Mathematics.
