Connect Your Students to the World
Register Now for our 2024 Cohorts
We’re excited to announce that we’re running new Cohorts in 2024. For Spanish classrooms, we will find you a partner! For other World Languages, invite a partner and we will pair you. We can accommodate almost any language.
What is a Level Up Village Cohort?
Level Up Village has launched a brand-new and easy-to-use platform with engaging, collaborative courses. Level Up Village will pair registered teachers and their classrooms with teachers and classrooms in another country. These Cohorts of paired classrooms, for students ages 12-18, will take part in 8-week global exchanges with brand new course content to choose from. Guided by our leveled Languages & Cultures course content and student-friendly technology, students will make memorable connections with global peers and deepen their understanding of other cultures.
For Spanish classrooms, we will find you a partner! For other World Languages, invite a partner and we will pair you. We can accommodate almost any language.
