FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Practutor: Unique learning tool launched

Math and English has always been problem subjects for the students. Some children dread the

subject so much that they fall ill at the time of exams. At times even dedicated efforts of the

teachers fail to make children come out of this fear. Understanding this plight, on June 2, 19.32

hours Practutor was opened for registration. Since then, more than 5000 people have registered

on the site.

The main idea behind Practutor

The main idea took roots during a coffee table discussion almost one and half a year back. The

intention was to make available for the kids in the elementary and middle school an effective

solution so that the problems they faced in English and Math was addressed properly. The

product took shape after long discussion, ideations, fine-tuning and research. The focus is only

one-excellence of students in English and Math irrespective of the place they belong to and the

level of schooling they receive.

Help where it is needed the most

Each student has his own strong points and shortcomings. Some are good at grammar while

some in numbering. Practutor’s algorithm tracks down the weak areas of the students and

provides intensified help in these areas. It also challenges the strong areas of the students so that

they can develop the skill to its full potential. Briefly, the idea is to make learning adaptive to the

need of each student.

How do we go about it?

Page 2: Practutor pr

We have formed a core curriculum, which comprise of more than 4200 individual questions in

Math and 40,000 English questions that cover all the aspects of the studies. These questions are

mostly targeted at testing the basic and critical thinking of the children. The students can print it

offline, work on them and email back its answers. The core curriculum inhabits myriad learning

videos, materials and learning options. Teaching through gaming is an integral part of this

curriculum, which makes the learning process exciting, and reward based.

First version of PracTutor

The first version of PracTutor –www.practutor.com is designed to reduce the rift between the

teachers and students making it easier on the part of both of them to teach and understand

respectively the subject in the most simplified manner. It also gives the parents the power to

involve themselves in this teaching and learning effort and contribute in any way possible to help

their child come out of fear for a particular subject or topic.

How can parents participate?

The program allows the parents to monitor the progress of the child and the teacher can identify

the various strengths and skills of the students distinctly. This helps both parents and the teachers

to focus on the shortcomings and encourage the students to do better in that particular arena of

studies. Practutor being a bespoke tool mentors the students on one to one basis and immediately

darts an alert if his performance comes down.

Our staff includes qualified mentors who are mathematics and English geniuses, professionals

who are parents themselves and dedicated teachers. These mentors regularly keep in touch with

the parents and support the teacher and the parent to help student overcome the hurdles in

studies. All the efforts are diverted to make each student achieve the highest level as per his

potential.
