Phone Languages is a team of 4 persons in charge of the management with 60 freelance native teachers.
Phone Languages is a family business that always has given great priority to the relations with it's teachers. The important team spirit probably is one of the keys of the language school's success since all these years.
Phone Languages insists on the customization of it's trainings by always staying available for the students and finding the best “trainer-trainee” combination because the human aspect remains in the centre of a good training.
1978 : First language courses over the phone in Belgium. Two charming (elderly) ladies integrate a methodology ("teaching languages over the phone") that is already very popular in Canada and USA. Doing so they mean to enhance the "conversation tables" they organise for friends.
1983 : A Belgian SME from Spa (Liege Province, Belgium) integrates the solution into its sales offer.
1985 : Gini Laloux incorporates "Phone Languages sprl" in Wallonia (Southern part of Belgium).
from 1986 : First large accounts (Goodyear, etc.). André Laloux joins the team. Telephoning is still "local".
from 1992 : Boom on phone courses. More large accounts (Belgacom, IBM Benelux, etc.). Telecoms are getting "international".
from 11.09.01 : Economic crisis; strong drop of HR/training budgets. New partnerships for Phone Languages (e.a. CERAN).
From 2003 to 2005 : New partnerships with International groups
2004 : New sales office in Singapore with the support of the Walloon Export Agency (AWEX)
2006 : Widening of the range of the products : Phone Languages combines Languages courses by telephone with an E-learning platform. This enriched formula allows big companies to give private training to more people with a personalized service at lower costs
