Economic benefits Bilinguals might have important labor market advantages over monolingual individuals as bilingual people can carry out duties that monolinguals cannot, such as interacting with customers who only speak a minority language. A study in the United States by O. Agirdag found that bilingualism has substantial economic benefits, as bilingual people were found to earn around $3,000 more per year in salary than monolinguals.

Don’t be surprised if you start speaking within a week!

Our Story

SkillsAndLessons has been developed through a unique collaboration between Finland, Sweden, and the USA since 2020, aiming to create an individualized knowledge platform. The curriculum spans from middle to high school, with teachers from Europe and the USA working together to define the 10 most important skills per subject. Users vote on lessons to surface the best ones.

The idea was born when the founder’s daughter suffered a concussion in a skiing accident and missed school. When her parents asked for a list of key topics to catch up, they were told, “You have to be in the classroom to keep up.”

Magnus Willner then envisioned a grassroots platform where teachers collectively structure knowledge. Drawing from his experience with the “Swedish Association for Requirement Engineers,” each skill was formulated concisely with concrete examples.

At Stanford Professional Studies, a global core team was formed, including Eugene Shteyn and Makaela Andersson (USA), Juhani Katajamäki (Finland), Ilse Bracke (Belgium), and Tanya van den Berg (South Africa). The team has since expanded to 15 core educators worldwide.

The real power of SkillsAndLessons lies in its global collaboration. Similar initiatives exist, such as the Educate Me Foundation, which supports African children’s education.

The future looks exciting with AI-driven personalized learning feeds—similar to Facebook or TikTok—allowing learners to engage with content effortlessly. Considering that people spend 5.5 hours daily on their phones (CMR/Vivo), optimizing knowledge consumption in an accessible format could be revolutionary.
