Heritage Language Learning

School subjects in your child's heritage language

Your child speaks the language at home but struggles with academic vocabulary. Koydo teaches math, science, and history IN their heritage language — so they learn both at once.

Your child is losing their heritage language

You see it happening. And it breaks your heart.

School is all in English

Academic vocabulary in the heritage language falls behind grade-level peers in the home country. They can chat with grandma but can't explain fractions.

Duolingo is too easy

They already speak it. Translation drills bore them. They need academic content, not “el gato es negro.”

Cultural identity fading

Language is the bridge to culture. Losing it means losing connection to grandparents, traditions, and community.

The Solution

Learn school subjects IN their heritage language

CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) is the method used by the world's best bilingual schools. Koydo brings it to your home.

Bilingual Curriculum

Grade 1–12 subjects taught bilingually. Math in Spanish. Science in Mandarin. History in Arabic. Real academic content, not translation drills.

Cortex Adaptive Engine

Koydo's AI adapts to your child's exact proficiency — harder vocabulary when ready, simpler when struggling. Every session is personalized.

Frequently asked questions

What ages does Koydo support?

Ages 3-18+, with content from pre-K through grade 12. Each level is adapted to the child's developmental stage and academic level, so a 5-year-old learning phonics and a 15-year-old studying chemistry both get age-appropriate content.

My child already speaks the language — is this still useful?

Yes! Koydo focuses on ACADEMIC vocabulary — the words your child needs for math, science, and history in their heritage language. Conversational fluency is great, but academic fluency is what keeps the language alive long-term and opens doors to university and careers in the home country.

Can I see what my child is learning?

Yes, the parent dashboard shows real-time progress per subject and language, vocabulary mastered, hours practiced, and CEFR-aligned proficiency tracking. You'll know exactly where your child stands and where they need extra support.

Which heritage languages are supported?

20 languages including Spanish, French, Mandarin, Arabic, Hindi, Korean, Japanese, Portuguese, German, Italian, Russian, Vietnamese, Turkish, Polish, Dutch, Swedish, Hebrew, Tagalog, and more. New languages are added regularly.

How is this different from a bilingual school?

Koydo supplements, not replaces school. It provides the heritage-language academic content that most English-medium schools cannot offer — so your child stays on grade level in both languages without switching schools. Think of it as a bilingual after-school tutor that's always available.
