Saturday, 2nd of April, 2022 Lagos: Your Study Path, a pocket-friendly online learning platform, has recently opened its doors for operations. Starting from August, students preparing for WAEC and JAMB will have access to the e-learning platform that boasts of “high-quality educational videos and learning materials.” Unlike other e-learning platforms, Your Study Path has two advantages:
First, it employs a hybrid method of content delivery. This means that in addition to pre-recorded animated and colorful learning videos, there is the whiteboard and marker learning experience that most students are already familiar with.
Additionally, Your Study Path has a low price point of entry while still maintaining the highest standards of quality. Compared to the competition, plans are as affordable as ₦2,000 per month or ₦10,000 per year on Your Study Path. For context, this translates to almost a 70% reduction in both monthly and yearly costs when compared against other competitors.
This is undoubtedly good news for the millions of Nigerian school children who are either out of school or are not learning enough.
Speaking on the idea behind the product, co-founder Daniel Egunjobi says, “we’re not eliminating school but we’re supporting it. Our driving question is why should a student spend 6 years preparing for WAEC and JAMB and still fail it?”
Daniel’s statement echoes the painful reality on the ground. In recent times, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) revealed that a large percentage of students performed poorly in the 2021 UTME exams.
Therefore, it’s welcoming news that Daniel and his team decided to build “an affordable school in your pocket.”
“I have never had [a more] fulfilling purpose than this since I came into this world,” he explained.
“Every business I have built has been to make ends meet. But this is one thing I’m doing that’s beyond making ends meet. It’s personal and it’s all about changing people’s lives,” Daniel concluded.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, an investor noted that Your Study Path solves an all too familiar problem:
“I was driven [to invest in solving] the problem because it’s so relatable. I’ve seen people who go to public schools and don’t get the right education. You’re bringing education to someone in the slum without buying uniforms. It’s beyond this setting [and I’m] investing in charity for education as a whole.”
Your Study Path’s promises rest on three offerings: affordable and accessible quality educational content, creative and technology-enabled learning experience, and curriculum content delivered in the most interesting ways.
In the long term, Your Study Path hopes to develop proprietary tablets with pre-recorded lessons for people in underserved communities, and it also has plans to incorporate virtual reality and social learning experiences for its users.
However, at the moment, the team is focused on revolutionizing the learning experiences of secondary school students who are preparing for their life-changing exams. For now, only 4 subjects will be available on the platform but the brand has plans to include other subjects as well as expand its curriculum and regions of coverage.
Your Study Path app is open to partnerships and can be reached at info@yourstudypath.com.
