While the pandemic threw a lot many industries/sectors off their balance, Education sector was the hardest hit. More so, the students suffered as their learning cycle was jeopardized, which in turn affected their ability to cope with anything other than traditional teaching methods. However, among the winners was Ebix, that beating all odds, emerged with a new solution called Ebix Step Skool.

Children need a reason to communicate in English. If both parent and child can communicate more effectively in your mother tongue, children will be less motivated to join in. Besides, English is the second language (ESL) for most Indian students, and hence the desired levels of proficiency can only be achieved with constant and consistent practice, and under able mentorship. Learning English—as a second language—requires a different approach and a greater focus on the part of the students for success in school tests as well as competitive exams. Ebix has therefore placed an English-training solution on the table and called it, English Forever. English Forever is designed to improve language skills of students keeping in mind the education requirements of learners from every grade. English Forever marries sound pedagogy with smart technology to bridge that need gap between learning requirements and resources at hand. “If I talk about mastering the speech; word content, content stress, subject specific words, public speaking activities, combination of sounds, interactivities, and a lot of things and ideologies are put in to making this syllabus. Moreover, its an open ended collaborative platform”, adds Sahil.
