Our Editorial Process

At Promova, we firmly believe that learning languages is about much more than just acquiring language skills; it is about the desire to live a fulfilling, happy life that people dream about. We also know everyone who starts learning languages has their own specific goals in mind: getting a promotion at their job, traveling confidently, understanding family history, to name a few.
