Our Story

As he was pursuing advanced education in the Spanish language, Rahul Sahasrabuddhe felt like he craved a more wholesome experience, a deeper insight into the language. He notice that popular trends of tutelage were somewhat limited to the language and the theory of the language, and that many aspects of a holistic language learning experience were lost.

He wanted to learn more about the language in a natural way and cater to his inherent curiosity — one that makes us travelers and explorers intrinsically. As of early 2016, Rahul was working a full-time job based on his qualification as a civil engineer.

But this urge to design and develop a holistic, intercultural experience took over and just six months later, he left his job to establish the Blend In Language Academy. He has since shared his creative vision with a few fellow linguaphiles who share the same passion for language, learning, and exploration.

What started out as a small group of believers and passionate learners has now grown into a beautiful close-knit family of aspiring students, language trainers,  translators, interpreters, ex alumni, and language enthusiasts from all over the country.

How We Teach

Firmly believing that language is beyond just words, Blend In shirks the traditional method of teaching for a more inclusive, practical-oriented, and fun formula to language learning.

We pay keen attention to each and every student, and the progress of each and every student in the five areas of language study — speech, reading, writing, grammar and technicality, and sensitization to culture, heritage, literature & history.

The key to how we do this is the inclusion of innovative games, discourse, entertainment, and challenging exercises. Every so often you’ll often find us munching on ‘nachos’ and other ‘tapas’ with our students, watching a Spanish or Latin American movie.

You will often hear our students, young professionals, school and college-goers alike animatedly performing scenes from movies in Spanish or pretending to be lost in Spain,looking for a job in Argentina, or being a surfboard vendor in sunny Costa Rica.

You will also find us helping our students prepare presentations, attempt real-world translation assignments, and interact with guests that we invite from Spanish-speaking countries. But that’s not all, occasionally you will also find us and our students buried in books, preparing for international language certification exams, and interviews.
