Go Dharmic is an international charity organisation whose goal is to bring people together to create positive social change in their lives and their communities. The lockdown in India, brought on by the global COVID-19 pandemic, prevented children from attending school for over one year.

With a compassionate vision to change people\u2019s lives with high quality English language courses that puts teachers at the heart of the solution, Klik2learn was the perfect partner for Go Dharmic.<\/p>\n

Klik2learn\u2019s mission is to help close the global literacy gap and provide a pathway to vocational study and employment for all learners regardless of their background or resources. As a technology company, Klik2learn\u2019s focus is on creating digital English language courses for self-study combined with teacher tools and reports to improve collaboration and learning outcomes for each student.<\/p>\n

Approach<\/strong><\/p>\n

Klik2learn has been guided by local partners, Go Dharmic on the best way to deliver and engage the children with the digital course. Regular call conferences with the local Go Dharmic team ensure that the project runs smoothly and provides a channel to share children\u2019s progress as well as teacher and student feedback.<\/p>\n

Klik2learn created a Monkey character to take the children on a tour of the course, so they can see how it works in a fun and interactive way. The children have been asked to name the monkey and have come up with a list of great names. The new name will be announced when all the children complete 50% of the course.<\/p>\n
