I have now taken 4 group and private lessons on PBC — excellent tutors in every case and much smaller classes with other students I liked a lot.

I'm having a great time learning with PBC. Everything has been really easy to organise and the Tandem feature is also great. Would recommend to anyone.

PBC is a great platform for realistic and practical language learning. The teachers are knowledgeable and passionate, focusing not only on the language but also shine a light on a given language's cultural context, history, music.

Language Learning, Designed for Participation

PBC Languages is an online immersion community built around consistent conversation, experienced teachers, and small groups that stay small.

Small Groups

Small Groups, Maximum Four

Four students per class means real speaking time, personal feedback, and familiarity that builds confidence week over week.

Experienced Teachers

Experienced Teachers

Our teachers combine strong professional experience with deep technical expertise, but what truly sets them apart is their passion for teaching and genuine love for what they do. They adapt to the room, not a script.

Ten Languages

Ten Languages

Spanish, Italian, French, English, German, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Catalan and Hindi. All taught with the same emphasis on communication and culture.

Practice Beyond Class

Practice Beyond Class

Unlimited exchanges with native speakers, WhatsApp groups, and cultural events keep the language active between sessions.

Real People

Real People & Direct

You book your classes, and communicate directly with your teacher. No algorithms managing the experience.

In-Person Events

In-Person Events

Meet your fellow learners and teachers on our biannual trips. Learners who travel together learn better.

Getting Started Is Simple

Getting started is straightforward.

You don't need to navigate complex systems or wait to be assigned somewhere. The process is simple and transparent from the beginning.

Choose your language

Choose Your Language

Select the language you want to practice and identify your level. If you're unsure, we help you place yourself comfortably.

Book a class

Book a Class

Open the calendar and select a small-group session that fits your schedule.

You'll see available teachers, times, and levels clearly. No hidden matching system, you choose the class that works for you.

Learn and connect

Learn and Connect

Attend your class, meet your group, and begin building consistency. Over time, you'll see the same teachers and often the same students. That familiarity creates comfort, and comfort increases participation. From there, the community extends beyond class through practice groups and events.

The Kind of
Learners Who Stay

Most language platforms measure sign-ups. We measure consistency. Over 3,454 classes taught. Students across 30+ countries. An average teacher rating of 4.9.

But numbers don't explain why people remain. The difference is the room.

Online learning

How PBC Began

When Babbel Live closed, many learners lost more than access to classes.

We lost our weekly rhythm, our familiar teachers, and the small groups where conversations felt natural.
For a lot of us, it wasn't just a platform that disappeared. It was a sense of continuity.

People who love teaching, and people who genuinely want to connect.
That's how PBC Languages began. People Building Connections.

The Teachers Make the Difference

There is a noticeable difference between someone who simply knows a language and someone who has dedicated their life to teaching it with depth, clarity, and care.

Experience is not a marketing line. It shapes every class. Our teachers bring deep, long-standing professional experience in language education, reflected in the way they guide, correct, and support every student.

Several were part of the original Babbel Live model, helping pioneer community-based online language learning long before it became common. They understand how small groups work, they know how to build continuity, and they recognise when confidence is growing and when it needs support.

Experienced teacher

This isn't scripted instruction. It's professional judgment applied in real time.

Language Learning as Belonging

This is not just a set of classes. It's a learning ecosystem. The community is every day.

WhatsApp groups where the conversation keeps going. Cultural events around films, traditions, and curiosity. Tandem partners who practise with you, not just near you.

Over time, you stop feeling like a student and start feeling like a member. That's the shift that changes everything.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is My First Class Really Free?

Yes. When you join you get one free class, and it does not expire: take it whenever you are ready. No credit card. Our language exchanges are free too, and always will be.

What Happens After My Free Class?

You can choose the plan that fits your rhythm, or decide not to continue. There's no automatic long-term commitment.

Will I Be Placed In The Right Level?

Yes. You choose your level when booking your class, and all classes are organised by language and level so you can join a group that matches your experience and feel comfortable and challenged.

Are Community Features Included In All Plans?

Yes. WhatsApp groups, cultural events, and structured exchanges are included in all subscription plans. The community is part of the model, not an upgrade.
