Dubai student hopes to reach 15, 000 learners by year-end Despite its growing reach, Ishaan acknowledges that access to technology remains a challenge for the children the platform is designed to help.
The platform has also introduced a feature called ‘Teach It Back’, inspired by a school visit where Ishaan and teachers observed that some students could recall their notes but struggled to explain scientific concepts in their own words.
Ishaan Palicha, a Year 13 student at Jumeirah College, launched VIDYA.
