Hey, we're Simon & Megan.
We're college students studying Computer Science and Linguistics at Cornell, as well as a couple of language lovers! We built Lingofable to solve a problem we kept running into: finding content at that perfect i+1 level that's actually enjoyable. After all, there has to be a middle ground between Peppa Pig dubs and hardcore native movies (although to be honest, kids content is pretty tough!).
Simon reached C1 Mandarin in three years — turns out, binging xianxia webnovels counts as studying. On the other hand, Megan's bookshelf is full of novels she's slowly but surely working her way up to, and that's kind of why we built this. Our experiences have convinced us both that reading is the most underrated way to learn a language.
We hope Lingofable helps you on your own path to fluency!
Self-funded and devoted to education.
Made with love by fellow language learners.
We're expanding to more languages soon!
