Kickstart language learning for refugees
Refugees can learn a foreign language by playing the New Amigos Boardgame. No teacher required.
Arnt Stefansen, NRK
Players have fun while learning to speak a foreign language! According to the European Council ¡New Amigos! takes you from zero to fluent conversation. ¡New Amigos! connects people as it promotes mutual respect and friendship for players of all ages and fluency levels.
LOW COST - HIGH PERFORMANCE
Roughly 5 EUR per student to reach fluency in a language.
TAILORMADE IN 8 WEEKS
We can create language combos such as Arabic-English in 8 weeks from order to delivery. We have already successfully created 28 language combos with a proven concept from order to delivery.
TESTED AND TRUSTED
400k games sold and 8 years of school contests in Germany (5000 students each year) make us confident to say that our language game delivers the best fun and value for money.
"¡New Amigos! is not just a game. It’s a peace-project – a game for tolerance – a game for understanding. It does the most basic and important of all things for creating a better and more peaceful world: It brings people from different places and cultures together, makes them talk to each other and makes them understand each other.”

"New Amigos is not just a language game - It's a peace project"
"¡New Amigos! builds on the same basic principles as those we all followed when we learned how to speak. By recognizing, imitating and memorizing, one can acquire the basics of both minor and major languages in a playful and social manner.”
Vigdís Finnbogadottír - UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for Languages

KICKSTART SPEAKING BY LEARNING THE MOST IMPORTANT FIRST
100 words are sufficient to understand 50% of an English text (Zipf's Law). With New Amigos you will learn the most frequently used words and phrases first. Then you progress to speak in past, present and future tenses as well as building a vocabulary of 1800 words.
