Pou kisa app sa egzisteWhy this app exists

Pandan plis pase 5 lane, John Clerge sèvi kominote ayisyen amerikan an kòm paralegal, realtor, ak ekspè taks ak imigrasyon. Chak semèn, li wè pitit kliyan li yo ap grandi nan 2 mond. Yo gen Anglè a nan lekòl, men yo souvan pèdi Kreyòl la, lang granmoun yo, lang istwa fanmi yo. For over 5 years, John Clerge has served the Haitian American community as a paralegal, realtor, and tax and immigration expert. Every week, he watches his clients' children grow up in two worlds. They get English at school, but they often lose the Kreyòl, the language of their elders, the language of their family stories.

Lè li ap chèche app edikatif pou pwòp pitit li yo, John reyalize: pa gen okenn app premium ki pran Kreyòl Ayisyen oserye. App ki egziste yo plen piblisite, pa gen vwa Kreyòl ki klè, oswa konsidere Kreyòl kòm yon refleksyon apre, pa kòm lang prensipal. When he searched for an educational app for his own kids, John realized something: no premium app takes Haitian Creole seriously. The apps that exist are full of ads, lack clear Kreyòl audio, or treat Kreyòl as an afterthought, not as a primary language.

Sa a se rezon ki fè TiLespri Bilingual egziste. Pou ke chak timoun ayisyen amerikan ka grandi fyè de tou de eritaj li yo, san paran yo gen pou enkyete sou piblisite oswa done timoun yo k ap fini nan men twazyèm pati. That's why TiLespri Bilingual exists. So every Haitian American child can grow up proud of both heritages, without parents having to worry about ads or their child's data ending up in third-party hands.
