Peter Galante is the founder of JapanesePod101 and co-founder and COO of Innovative Language, a Japan-based company specializing in language education through podcasting and video.
Innovative Language has been blazing a trail in the online language learning world since its flagship product, JapanesePod101, launched in 2005.
Innovative Language offers language students a full-fledged, all-in-one learning system that is engaging, fun and culturally relevant.
Lessons are scripted as entertaining audio and video shows focused on interesting and useful topics led by two hosts - a native speaker and a learner with a high level of proficiency.
Each 10-minute lesson is the result of no fewer than five hours (and often much more) of planning, writing and production. Each lesson is accompanied by a full transcript of the show as well as further details and instruction, including the ability to interact directly with the creators for feedback and clarification.
