New York/ Hong Kong, November 2003 -- The opening of global markets transforms English into an overnight de facto universal language, creating a major stir among non-English speaking nations and giving way for e-learning industry leaders such as Cleverlearn Ltd. to boom.

According to education experts, computer-based learning has, approximately, a 20% market share in Germany. And this number is growing as the trend is further strengthened with globalization. Inevitably, the ability to communicate in English has become a prerequisite to success. Three quarters of the world’s mail are written in English with one in every four persons on earth speaking the language.

Cleverlearn® (www.cleverlearn.com) is an international web company that provides comprehensive English-learning services. Its primary focus is to teach English as a Foreign Language (EFL) at the speed and flexibility of online communication. Keeping this in mind, Cleverlearn designed products that redefine learning and convenience. 

Cleverlearn was first introduced through the Clicktionary™, an essential tool in modern communication. It is a downloadable tray application that easily translates words from English into German, English into Chinese, and English into Vietnamese. Cleverlearn then released products for people on the go with the CleverTrainer™, a mobile language trainer adaptable to Palm™ and Pocket PC, and the CleverHandy™, where instant translations are received via SMS. 

The CleverCourse™ is a personalized online English class, designed for an effective study of the language. There are two curricula to choose from: General English and Business English (following soon). A placement test identifies the needs of each student and the appropriate applications for them. 

Incorporated in the CleverCourse and Cleverlearn packages is the indispensable Word Reminder™, an online English Vocabulary Enhancer that supplies translation of a word along with its definition and usage. 

Cleverlearn was started in 1999 at Santa Monica, California (USA). It was founded on a vision of computers and the Internet as the next professors of 21^st century digital education. Presently, Cleverlearn is the pacesetter in E-learning technology.
