"An organization whose members possess a deep passion for language-learning and increasing their collective understanding and appreciation of various cultures, Bruin Polyglot Society advocates for the countless benefits of multilingualism. By utilizing contrarian techniques, we seek to revamp the conventional language-learning approach and mindset. We are a community of resilient and collaborative learners who strive for excellence every day."

What We Do

At Bruin Polyglot Society, our team consists of driven UCLA students who are all united by one singular passion: Studying languages as a means to understand and assimilate with the world around us. We provide expert guidance to our esteemed members who wish to reach proficiency in any language of their choice. This includes specific autodidactic strategies, exclusive resources and special guest features at our biweekly meetings. 
We fundamentally revitalize the language learning experience by dispensing with the conventional approach that often yields mediocre results. Our vocabulary, grammar and immersion exercises transform the once-arduous process into a fun and engaging one, which is so crucial for success. Our dedicated research committee consists of some of UCLA’s most talented minds who conduct in-depth analysis on the linguistic, psychosocial and cognitive benefits of polyglotism. Such students consistently review and revise our proprietary Training Program to ensure our methods are backed by science and are always up-to-date. For many BPS members, their goal is to become confident speakers in their non-native language in a professional setting. After induction, members can select the “Language Learning for STEM” track or “Language Learning for Business” track for a more structured approach that is tailored to their needs. As a polyglot, there is practically no endgame to the language learning journey. While daunting for some, BPS reassures its members that with a streamlined approach and unwavering determination, the coveted goal of polyglotism can be reached. While we implore our members to set realistic expectations, we also encourage them to go outside of their comfort zone. Ultimately, our organization cultivates an environment that is collaborative, productive and conducive to the optimal language learning experience. At Bruin Polyglot Society, our members are contrarian, innovative, efficient, collaborative, selfless and never satisfied.
