About Seedlang
At Seedlang we are passionate about working at the intersection of education and technology. It is our mission to help people succeed on the difficult journey of learning a new language in a fun and effective way. We believe in bringing together innovative technology and authentic language learning content, produced by real people using real language.
Our team is small but dedicated. We are working on a big challenge that we have ourselves experienced, both as learners and teachers. Seedlang has been founded by Jeremy in 2015 as a response to his struggle with learning German after moving to Berlin. He was later joined by Cari who has been teaching German through her Easy German YouTube channel.
We are as much a content creation company as a technology company, and because of that we have a unique team culture that emphasizes collaboration, creativity, and fun.
