NEW DELHI, SEPTEMBER 24: BasicFirst has announced the launch of its ‘LIVE Online Classes’, to offer an interactive and ‘participative learning’ experience for school students in India. Randhir Kumar Priyadarshi, Chief Mentor, BasicFirst also revealed that this new service will be available on their platform in nine Indian languages within the next three months, thereby widening its reach even further.
Since its inception in February this year, BasicFirst has grown rapidly to about 18 locations and 700 employees with close to 20,000 paid subscribers for its two initial products namely the ‘Doubt Clearing Programme’ and ‘Rent-a-Tab’. While the first product enables a student preparing for any examination from classes six to 12 across India, to get their doubts clarified through chat/phone/video, ‘Rent-a-Tab’ allows students access to the country’s most affordable education Tablet at INR 750 a month only.
Commenting on the launch of the ‘LIVE Online Classes’, Randhir Kumar, Founder & CEO, BasicFirst, said, “Through our Live Online Classes we want to bring BasicFirst to the students, whenever they feel the need or a doubt is raised in their mind. At the same time, we intend to reduce the difficulty of language for Indian students as a vast majority of our population, across the length and breadth of the country, might not be sufficiently comfortable with English, so as to enable them to think and apply the learning to achieve their dreams. We have always believed that every student needs personal attention for doubt free learning hence we have developed this latest offering. Our LIVE online classes will allow students to get that personalized learning experience from the best teachers of the country, at the comfort of their home.”
BasicFirst aims to provide the live classes in a total of nine languages, with eight regional languages, in the next three months. The ‘LIVE Online Classes’ program will allow students to choose from their preferred language, which include English, Hindi, Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil, Telegu, Oriya, Bangla and Marathi, as a medium of learning. The regional language feature is aimed for students of non-metropolitan cities, whose preferred language might not be English, and the levels of comfort for students lie in learning in their regional language.
