ABOUT UPGRADES
About us
Upgrades is an education company that offers tailor-made language lessons for individuals and businesses – one-on-one or in groups. To ensure that you as a customer maximize your learning, we always accommodate the lessons to your schedule, current level of proficiency and other wishes. During the lessons we combine language learning with motivation and study techniques, striving to help you meet your individual goals and continue learning after the end of the course!
Since starting out in a garage back in 2009, Upgrades has expanded rapidly and won the Gasell prize in 2015 for being one of Sweden’s fastest growing companies. We are proud of being able to offer personalized education to thousands of customers, and at the same time offering jobs to over 100 coaches every year – a win-win situation.
Upgrades is a member of The Swedish Association of Accredited Language Training Providers (ASR). To gain membership we successfully passed the quality service norm Q3000, which proves our standard of educational methods, staff, teachers and administration, marketing and product information, ethics and moral code as well as environmental consciousness.
Most of our coaches are based in the following areas, but we operate countrywide.
Our Language Coaches
Upgrades has at present circa 100 active language coaches across the country, who are all selected for their pedagogical abilities and motivational personality. Our coaches come from varied backgrounds – they are licensed teachers, journalists, authors, lecturers as well as professional pedagogues in areas such as voice coaching, business language and text editing. It is especially fun when the coaches teach in their own mother tongue, as they can educate in both language and culture. All assignments we take on are matched carefully with a coach where oth language, personality and experience are important factors – to find the very best coach suited to your needs!
The Upgrades Office
Here at the Stockholm office you will find the team dedicated to language development for our customers. To be able to help those who reach out to us, we are all experts in our designated fields.
