Moreover, you can search for teachers, students, learning groups and courses, and filter results by subject, location, price, age and gender. On Jaacoo, students and teachers can evaluate each other and provide feedback on how they can further develop. You can find teachers and students close to you or all over the world and most importantly, with Jaacoo you can find the right teaching partner and friends. It is through connections and relationships with people that we learn most effectively.

Our Story

One day in the jungle of North Vietnam I was invited to the house of a very intelligent gentleman in a wheelchair, who asked me if I could teach him English. I said sorry, but I can’t because I’m not only highly dyslexic but also I have to leave tomorrow back to Europe. However, that night I had an idea! I called a friend in Oxford and asked him if he would like to teach a guy in a wheelchair in the jungle of Vietnam? He was absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to teach my new friend.
That was the beginning of Jaacoo app.
