LingoAce, a global education technology company on a mission to make learning for kids more engaging, effective, and accessible through technology, has announced the launch of Ace Academy Learning Centers in San Jose, California; the Greater New York City metro; and Melbourne, Australia. This expansion into in-classroom learning builds on the success of the company’s first location in Singapore, of which nearly 2,000 students have enrolled since 2021. The San Jose Center opened its doors in 2024 and has already experienced a 95% student overall satisfaction rate and a 100% renewal rate.
Demand is especially strong in the San Francisco Bay Area, the greater New York metropolitan area, and Melbourne, Australia. Ace Academy Learning Centers will offer its award-winning proprietary curricula in a seamless blend of online and offline courses.
Hugh Yao, Founder and CEO of LingoAce, shared about the platform:
With years of experience teaching students globally at scale, we have developed the highest-quality curriculum, trained the best teachers, and understood the nuances of using blended learning to enhance student-teacher engagement and foster a thriving learning community.
With the launch of more Ace Academy Learning Centers, LingoAce also expands offerings beyond learning Chinese and English as a second language, including English Language and Art (ELA) and Math classes. In 2025, LingoAce plans to open more Ace Academy Learning Centers around the globe and is open to partnerships.
LingoAce, founded in 2017, is headquartered in Singapore and operates in the United States, Southeast Asia, Europe, and China. Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia India & Southeast Asia), Owl Ventures, Tiger Global, and Shunwei Capital are the world’s top investors. The company employs over 4,000 professionally certified teachers and has taught over 20 million classes to PreK-12 students in over 100 countries. Following a year of positive cash flow in 2024 and more than a year of profitability in its main online learning business, the company has recognized a new growth opportunity in blended learning.
