Last week, IMMERSE proudly co-exhibited with Meta at Bett UK, the largest EdTech exhibition in the world. Chief Learning Officer Dr. Misty Wilson was joined at the IMMERSE booth by Christina Cavage, Director of Curriculum, and Dr. Tricia Thrasher, Director of Research, to talk about the unique advantages of VR for language learning.

IMMERSE took the stage with two lightning talks and live demo sessions, sharing how VR is transforming language education into job-ready training that prepares learners for real-world success.

The IMMERSE booth was buzzing with excitement, with over 80 scheduled demos and countless conversations with language educators and VR enthusiasts from around the globe. It was inspiring to hear so many educators and institutions recognize the unique benefits of teaching languages in VR. The ability to immerse learners in authentic, interactive environments is a game-changer for building confidence and fluency.

What stood out to the IMMERSE team this year was how far the conversation around virtual reality for education has come. The energy and enthusiasm for using immersive technology to empower learners is truly inspiring. VR is no longer a novelty on campuses—it’s becoming a strategic tool.
