Interactive English Program makes S. Koreans a New Yorker for the Day
eSprout.com offers Traditional Language Education and City-savvy Conversation
The ultimate mission of the eSprout program is to make its students New Yorkers for the day. To achieve this goal, eSprout employs highly-trained language teachers that are also native New Yorkers; this blend of classic English curriculum and city-savvy instruction helps eSprout students learn the new language while quickly adjusting to the fast-paced culture of the Big Apple.
"We’re proud to launch our commercial website in both the United States and South Korea,” said CEO of eSprout, David Lebowitz, “providing an ideal medium in which South Korean students can interact with instructors from the United States. Our goal was to deliver live online English language classes via advanced web conferencing technologies, and thanks to Hudson Horizons, we’ve achieved that goal.”
The design and web development team at Hudson Horizons hand-coded eSprout.com from the ground-up, making it fully scalable for growth and integration of Web 2.0 tools. By implementing its own SEO-friendly Content Management System, Hudson Horizons was able to create a dynamic back-end section where eSprout administrators can access their site content 24/7. In addition to managing all page content, including Meta tags, URL structures, body text, images, and contact forms, administrators can access custom criteria such as class groups, templates, wire transfers, coupons, and pending registrations.
This same back-end system also allows eSprout teachers and students to login and manage their personal accounts. Teachers have the ability to view their classes and contact students directly through the site; students have the ability to easily register for classes that fit their budgets and schedules.
Daryl H. Bryant, founder, president and CEO of Hudson Horizons, was pleased that his team could create an online presence for eSprout with this custom-built website.
“The eSprout method is quite an innovative approach to teaching English,” he commented. “It combines proper vocabulary and grammar with cultural trends and dialect... it brings these international audiences together in a truly rewarding way.”
