About Us:

Diáfano is the language learning hub of the future, with a human-centered philosophy at its very core. We were the first in the industry to speak about how daunting language learning really is, and how apps can never be the way to learn a language. You need actual experts to lead the way. The Diáfano Method fuses tried and true methods of language learning with our own modern spin: we focus on practical everyday applications while engaging peers in conversation, thoughtful exercises, and a hands-on, results-driven approach, all delivered online with our topnotch educators. Designed by a linguist and administered by a global community of top-tier native educators, our method hacks into the psychology of language learning to ensure maximum retention and true mastery. We’re people-first. Everything else, second.

Our Goal:

We empower people to immerse themselves in new cultures and create meaningful connections through language learning. We believe that language learning leads to cross-cultural understanding, so we aim to make it more accessible and more impactful than ever. Our goal is to help students achieve language mastery through methods focused on social learning. We rely on data to inform progress and our decision-making process, all while engaging in culturally-responsive pedagogy. As a Sales Rep, your job is as much to reach potential new markets as about the language as it is to teach its cultural context and help to continue to build a culturally competent and understanding society.

Our Core Values Are:

• Mastery: We strive for mastery in everything that we do. * Sincerity: Integrity means a lot to us. It is at the core of who we are. * Innovation: We create our own rules to give you an experience and results you won’t find anywhere else. * Inclusion: We are diverse, and this gives our work cultural context. * Connection: We learn languages to connect. Period.

At Diáfano we thrive because of our differences. We’re a proud equal opportunity workplace.
