Pearson English Language Learning:

As geographical boundaries come down and mobility increases, the world is getting smaller. English is fast becoming the world’s prominent ‘second’ language.

Pearson’s English unit is building its presence to meet the needs of the estimated 2 billion people who are currently learning English around the world. This trend looks set to rise as English continues to be the universal language of business, culture and the internet.

The COVID-19 pandemic introduced significant disruption and transformation to the education market. And as a result, our category has seen explosive growth, and our business has experienced enormous increases in awareness and enrolments. This presents an incredible opportunity for our team to chart a ground-breaking path through this shifting environment to achieve continued success.
