Meet Azren Raju, also known as Azren the Language Nerd! Born and raised in Calgary, Azren grew up speaking English, French, and Gujarati, an experience that would lay the foundation for his love of languages.

Azren started working for College Pro in 2011 as a first year university student, after hearing about the program through an in-class recruiting presentation. After a difficult first year, Azren came to appreciate the various skills that become second-nature through the College Pro experience: cold-calling, managing the finances of a business, conducting interviews, and leading a crew to name a few.

Fast forward several years, and Azren eventually decided to start the Calgary Language Nerds in 2016, a company committed to creating self-study resources and teaching a wide variety of languages. As he explains, building the business was a “brick by brick” process, but he’s now in his 6th year and loves it just as much as when he started!
