Students can now find Immerse’s educational virtual world built specifically for learning languages on Meta’s VR app store, after the organisations announced a partnership.

VR language learning company Immerse has raised $9m in funding which it will use to expand its team globally and further invest in virtual education innovation.

Teachers and learners have a “positive overall view” of virtual reality and its use in hybrid learning settings, according to International House Manchester and Immerse.

Virtual reality is not a concept for the future, it is a growing to become an educational platform of choice, according to one language learning company.

As more users engage with virtual reality, we are committed to understanding how to best support the learning journey for all key stakeholders

EdTech startup Immerse has won in the “Language Learning Innovation” category at this year's EdTech Breakthrough Awards. 

Speakers at The PIE Live suggested learning is approaching a new model, away from curriculum- and knowledge-focused education to offer more experience-based modes.

The future success of international education will lie in our ability to innovate to address the challenges of our modern era
