The problem isn’t the lack of ability, but the lack of confidence and the fear of making mistakes. \r<br>Rather than protecting Taiwanese learners from making mistakes, Speak leaned into it. \r<br>Speak partnered with Lee Yang, 2-time Olympic gold medalist with famously bad English, and made him the industry’s first-ever “Broken English Ambassador.” The campaign wasn’t going to polish his English, but for it to be heard as is; imperfectly. We embraced his famous mispronunciation of “proud” as “PROND,” and transformed the punchline into a symbol of confidence. \r<br>“PROND” went on to become an internet slang and a cultural movement. It galvanized Taiwanese people with the confidence to speak without fear of making mistakes, and transformed broken English from shame to a symbol of pride and progress. \r<br>By giving Taiwan a role model who spoke imperfectly without shame, the campaign made speaking broken English something to be proud of rather than embarrassed, and made it culturally permissible to speak openly without fear.\r<br>This cultural movement drove Speak to #1 on Apple’s educational apps charts during the campaign’s run, and proved that confidence is what drives real cultural change. When fear subsides, progress follows. \r<br>","is_link":false}],"files2":[{"name":"","type":"pdf"}],"count":1}
