ABOUT US
WHY VERBUM AND WHO WE ARE?
Verbum Academy was born from the entrepreneurial vision of our Co-founder and CEO, Anurag Chakraborty. Growing up in challenging financial circumstances, Anurag was driven by an enduring motivation to give back to others who shared his experiences of hardship. From a young age, he aspired to study abroad, cultivating a passion for different cultures and languages that ultimately inspired him to create Verbum Academy. His vision was clear: to build an academy where language learning could empower students and professionals preparing to relocate abroad. What sets Verbum apart is its unique approach—offering classes taught by native-speaking professionals from each learner’s destination country, fostering an immersive and practical language experience. This concept reflects Anurag’s commitment to impact and innovation, a quality that inspired others to join him on this journey.
One of the first to believe in and support Anurag's idea was Arpan Ghosh, who not only contributed the name "Verbum" but has been integral in transforming the vision into reality. As a talented COO, Arpan’s leadership, skill in building diverse teams, and operational expertise have been instrumental to Verbum’s growth. His dedication has helped shape every part of our operations, from website development to team management, making him the ideal partner in bringing Verbum to life.
Rounding out our founding team is Yaman Marjuk, our Co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer (CMO). While Yaman’s contributions have been more focused, his work has supported our mission by bringing Verbum’s vision to new audiences. His insights and efforts in marketing have helped raise awareness of our goals, adding value to the team and helping connect more learners with Verbum’s unique approach to language learning.

MORE ABOUT US ON HOW IT ALL CAME ALONG
Our Story: A Journey from Idea to Reality
In the year 2022, a spark of inspiration ignited within us, igniting a collective passion to create something extraordinary. From the very first inception of our idea, we knew we were onto something special. It was during a series of invigorating meetings that our vision took shape, and the path ahead began to unfold.
As the seasons changed and the leaves fell, November 2022 became a pivotal moment in our journey. It was then that we made a resolute decision: we were going to make it happen. With determination in our hearts and a shared belief in the power of education, we set out to conquer the challenges that lay before us.
Our journey has not been without hardship. A profound personal loss deeply affected our team and shifted our focus toward something greater—charity. In memory of a cherished person, we dedicated the next year and a half to offering our services entirely free of charge, making quality education accessible to those in need. This pause allowed us to give back in a way that truly honored our loss and deepened our commitment to our mission.
Now, as we return to our core operations, we are more motivated than ever. Verbum Academy is stepping into its next chapter with a renewed vision, strengthened by our journey and unwavering in our mission to create transformative learning experiences. Join us as we continue to empower individuals through language learning, breaking boundaries, fostering global connections, and building a world where education truly knows no limits. Together, let’s embark on a journey that goes beyond language, fostering a lifelong pursuit of growth and understanding.
