What is Sanako Connect?

Sanako Connect transforms second language teaching for language educators (World languages, MFL, ESL, EFL) by offering a dedicated web-based platform tailored specifically to the needs of language teachers in schools and universities. Unlike most solutions, Sanako Connect prioritizes the development of students’ speaking, pronunciation, and listening skills, providing a comprehensive suite of tools and activities designed to address these critical areas. With features such as simultaneous whole-class speaking and listening assignments, engaging live pair/group discussion and role-play activities, automated pronunciation grading, and seamless student recording and feedback capabilities, Sanako Connect empowers you to efficiently guide your students toward fluency. As a teacher-led platform, Sanako Connect ensures that you, as a teacher, are always in control of your language classes in any teaching mode, whether in the classroom, remotely, live, or asynchronously—making it the ultimate solution for professional language educators seeking to elevate language instruction to new heights.

Why is this the perfect language teaching software for schools and universities?

Saves and Optimizes Teachers’ Time

Sanako Connect is a real time saver for language educators. If you are using different apps and tools like Quizlet for vocabulary tests and flashcards, Kahoot for multiple-choice questions, and Audacity or Vocaroo for collecting students’ recordings, you will love Sanako Connect as it lets you do all those things in one software tool.

Hassle-free for Your School IT

Sanako Connect is easy to manage and hassle-free for the school IT department because it’s a scalable browser-based solution with concurrent user licensing. Usable at a class level, at a teacher level, at a school level, or even at a district level. You can start with one class and scale it when more teachers adopt the system in their classes.

Accessible from Any Device

Sanako Connect is accessible from anywhere using any combination of devices and operating systems (Windows, Mac, Chrome), including laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and smartphones. It’s super fast to use because your students do not need any login details as they join via a unique web link or QR code. All your lesson files and materials are stored in a secure AWS cloud-based system with separate data locations for the USA and Europe.

Teach Any Language

Sanako Connect can be used to teach any language, and we support right-to-left and left-to-right writing systems. You can import your existing lesson materials or use the in-built content authoring tools to create interactive video tasks, speaking assessments, vocabulary tests, flashcard decks, listening comprehension, multiple-choice questions, model imitation, gap-fill exercises, and much more.

Increase Speaking Time

Sanako Connect helps you and your students work on the most difficult parts of the language learning process: intonation, speaking, and pronunciation skills. With Sanako Connect, you can increase your students’ speaking practice time up to 10X what you can achieve with traditional teaching methods.
