Inspiration

“Everybody benefits from investments made in education and in the quality of education. Education is important for societal development and for diminishing inequality.”

• on-demand and personalization are an important concern for learning online • e-learning and tutoring online today focus on grades vs overall learning experience • No one learning system to cater one-one flexible & personalized experience • There are no skill-based platforms for kids and adults to learn continuously anytime, anywhere.

What it does

How I built it

What I learned
