Rosetta Stone’s unique ‘Dynamic Immersion’ method will help all types of learners read, write, and speak a new language intuitively, without translations.
Graham Stuart, Club Ambassador said: “I have always fancied learning a new language and our agreement with Rosetta Stone is giving me the chance to do that. Football is a global game and communication with players, coaches and fans is really important.
“I’ve chosen to start learning Spanish as I fancy visiting one of our South American Supporters Clubs in the future but with Rosetta Stone there are so many languages to choose from.
“It is a great way to start the new year and there are some clear health and wellbeing benefits to learning a new language. I’ve enjoyed the intuitive and immersive training methods teaching you how to read, write and speak.”
“I can learn at my own pace and whatever age you are it is never too early or too late to learn. Whether you are purchasing as a gift for someone or you want to learn the language of your favourite Everton player, the lingo spoken at your favourite holiday destination or if picking up a second or third language is part of your bucket list, Rosetta Stone will make it easy.”
Findings from a 2021 language learning survey conducted by Rosetta Stone highlights how 28% of UK adults now speak a second language fluently, up from 23% in 2020.

“We are excited by this link-up with Everton, who are a renowned footballing name with a global fanbase, as we offer fans, players, ambassadors, and Everton in the Community participants new opportunities to enjoy the benefits of learning a new language.”
