Speaking about the company, Founder & CEO of Class24, Bhunesh Sharma, said:
Traditional educational models often need help to adapt to the changing needs of students and educators. As a result, innovative startups like class24 have emerged to bridge the gap between traditional education and technological advancements, offering a range of accessible and personalized learning experiences/solutions that empower learners and teachers alike. Unlike its peers, Class24 has been rapidly scaling up in just one year owing to its sharp focus on in-house training, premium content, strong internal processes & systems instead of basing the company’s foundations on only Educators. Class24 has reached over 1.3 million student app downloads in just one year.
The company provides a well-structured module-based approach for students enrolled in paid courses. Each module focuses on specific topics, accompanied by practice exercises, mock tests, and regular quizzes. These resources help students reinforce their understanding, develop critical thinking skills, and enhance problem-solving abilities. Its team of educators is dedicated to assisting students throughout their learning journey, providing expert knowledge and personalized attention to help them achieve their academic goals.
This achievement marks a significant milestone in the company’s journey, which is poised to accelerate its expansion plans and further enhance its innovative tech-backed solutions/platform to shape the future of education in India.
