Mary Juliet Penheiro
Founder and CEO
I can’t wait to hold the privilege to represent Learn Bangla, a leading Bangla language institute, assisting foreigners in learning Bangla language and developing cross- cultural educations! So, how the story began?
I started my career through teaching Bangla language to the foreigners with a local Non-Profit Organization in Bangladesh in 2001. Later on,
I founded my own institution “Learn Bangla” in 2010, which is exclusively providing Bangla language teaching to the foreigners. Meanwhile, our program has helped hundreds of foreign learners to learn Bangla language from more than fifty five countries.
A twenty years restless journey of my teaching Bangla language to the foreigners enabled me to realize the importance and potentiality of learning a new language. A language learning, I believe, is only the skill that opens your opportunity to communicate with an intercultural community to blend with and to understand each other’s views; most importantly, it supports your living comfortable in a different lingual and cultural settings or environments.
In 2017, when I moved to the USA, I felt it more utterly. At this point, their struggling to communicate in Bangla language became my great strength and inspiration to establish our Bangla language program for them.
