Philadelphia x Babbel

Make your lunch simply better, learn a new language!

How do you spend your lunch break? Philadelphia recently undertook research that uncovered UK workers are spending 23% of their lunch doing work-related tasks, the equivalent of giving away 56 hours a year in lost time. The research also found some 58% of respondents admitted to taking breaks that are only 7 - 20 minutes long.

However, we’ve partnered with Philadelphia to help you refocus on you during your lunchtime! Did you know Babbel lessons only take 15 minutes? Plus, they're bite sized, light and fun, so there’s plenty of time to relax whilst tucking into a deliciously simple Philadelphia lunch recipe.

Switching up your lunch break routine with Babbel and Philadelphia will quickly show positive results: Not only will you have some dedicated time for yourself every day and a tasty lunch, but you'll see fast progress with your newly acquired language skills. Now if that isn't a win win…
