just some of the things that drive us at somos! learn more about our mission, vision and how we operate as a social enterprise below.
a creator platform? sure, but more than that we're a social enterprise on a mission to create a first of its kind platform co-owned by language teachers...
language teachers often face a tough choice: pay high commissions to marketplaces or juggle multiple roles β teacher, marketer, accountant, and product designer β when going solo.
somos isn't a teaching marketplace. we believe in a different model, one where you keep your hard-earned revenue.
we want to simplify your life by providing the tools you need to teach creatively, seek out your ideal students, and build a sustainable online teaching business.
we're committed to more than just developing teaching software - we want to be part of movements championing language, migrant & worker rights. βπΎ
that's why our paid subscribers can become co-owners in somos.
why? because we don't want customers, we want co-owners who can help us build a new kind of platform and be rewarded fairly for doing so.
as a co-owner in somos, you'll be a crucial part of a global community celebrating languages, peoples, cultures and fair pay for educators.
we're aiming to provide you with the tools to make meaningful connections with students, fellow teachers, activists, and grassroots organizations, all while having the power to create and sell your own digital language products.
our mission shapes everything we do and how we do it.
along with co-ownership for teachers, we also have a community ownership programme for grassroots organisations and have put a unique entry-level hiring programme in place for refugees living in limbo.
ready to transform your teaching and make a real difference? join somos today and let's change the world of language teaching together π

- khawar | founder & ceo @ somos ππ½:
you're welcome to connect with me:
at somos, we believe in the power of collaboration and co-ownership.
our impact fund supports our core community partners by not only allocating 1% of gross merchandising value and 1% of any additional revenue but also offering them equity ownership in our business.
this unique co-ownership approach aligns our long-term goals with our community and ensures that our partners are an integral part of our journey.
we're a creator platform on a mission to help language teachers earn & live well.
if you've taught languages online with platforms like preply, italki, and cambly, we'd love to hear from you!
help us build the teaching platform you want from the ground up. π
Our excellent customer support team is ready to help.
