“The high enrolment number is due to the flexibility offered by the program with self-paced courses and tailored live learning solutions. Beyond masterclasses and app-based learning, we have also built a strong community of IELTS learners to promote peer-to-peer interactions.

This has enabled us to reach a large number of students in tier 2, tier 3 cities in India, who had limited access to offline learning resources due to pandemic-induced lockdowns. IELTS is an important milestone in a students’ study abroad journey and we aim to help a million students prepare for the exam in the next 12 months”.
