Lingobox

Bonjour! I’m Ann Robertson-Malone — founder of Lingobox Learning and your virtual primary French teacher.

I’ve seen first-hand how powerful language learning can be in a child’s life — building confidence, curiosity, communication, and cultural awareness. Whether I was teaching in the classroom or advising schools across Scotland, one thing always stood out: teachers and families want to help children learn languages — but often don’t know where to start.

That’s why I created Lingobox.

After years working as a language teacher, advisor, and leader of primary languages across four Scottish local authorities, I understood both the potential — and the barriers — of language learning in schools. I developed full resource kits, led training for thousands of teachers, and saw the impact that well-supported teaching can have.

But I also saw the challenges: lack of time, limited confidence, and the pressure to deliver languages without specialist training.

Lingobox is my answer to that challenge — an easy-to-use, off-the-shelf language learning experience that helps teachers and families deliver fun, effective, and meaningful lessons with confidence.

Every resource is created with creativity, progression, and high-quality teaching at its heart. You’ll find:

• Easy-to-follow activities with audio, translations, and clear instructions

• Songs, games, and interactive videos that get kids moving and speaking

• Target language instruction videos to create a more immersive experience

• Professional learning materials to build your confidence and pedagogy

• In-depth workshops and courses packed with fresh, simple ideas

Lingobox is also perfect for families who want to explore French together at home — no experience needed!

Whether you’re a primary teacher looking to build confidence, a parent wanting to share language learning with your child, or a secondary teacher seeking fresh ideas — Lingobox gives you everything you need to help children love languages and learn for life.

I’m proud to have been named a 2025 UK StartUp Awards finalist in both the Educational Tech Startup and Global Startup categories — a recognition of Lingobox’s growing impact and innovation in language education.
