WOWL
WOWL app launched to help Bengali medium students
Kolkata: WOWL or World of Wonderful Learning, which is a proprietary android mobile app, designed, developed and owned by WOWL EDTECH was launched recently with the aim to help students in West Bengal who are studying in Bengali medium schools under the Madhyamik board curriculum.
The app makers promise to make quality supplementary learning aligned with Pre-Madhyamik board curriculum in Bengali medium available to the millions of pupils in all corners of West Bengal, free of cost.
WOWL was launched in the presence of media personality Mir Afsar Ali on Nov 15 at The Astor Hotel.
"This app is going to help students of districts and suburban regions," Mir told reporters.
"This app will provide separate care to students," he said.
Union Education Group, operating from the ThinkSpace, Imperial College of London, UK is working with schools and other organisations in the UK and overseas and is committed to creating bespoke language packages.
In India, UEG is collaborating exclusively with WOWL.
The journey of UEG-WOWL starts with the extraordinary Project BELIEVES (Bespoke English Learning Initiative to Empower Vernacular Educators and Students), supported by the British Council's Digital Learning Innovation Fund, 2022.
West Bengal has over 10 million students, at any given time, learning in schools, across all the grades up to X, in Bengali medium.
After their school-leaving examinations, they face tremendous inconvenience in adopting higher education, vocational and professional trainings in a universal medium, which is predominantly English in India.
The founders of WOWL, Anishabrata Ghosh and Surojit Nath, have vast experience in the field of K12 education and new-age digital education.
The app meant for providing tuitions to K12 students, allows free access to pre-recorded videos of class lectures delivered by highly competent teachers – the educated and talented youth mostly from the district towns of West Bengal.
The current directors of WOWL are Kathakali Sen, Piyas De and Ashis Majumdar.
