Inspiration

While studying through youtube videos or doing any online course we always wish if we could ask our doubts or question to the teacher in that video at that very moment or of we could personally interact with the teacher/mentor.
We always wish to help the community but fail at extracting the time to travel kms. Through our platform one can fulfill this wish by training/teaching while sitting at their respective homes.

What it does

Our target scope is providing better vocational and school educational services to whole india.Our solution proposes to provide a personalized experience to any person learning/teaching through our app. It provides resources such as a personal mentor(gender preference), youtube videos, language preference(multilingual).

How we built it

Our app works in two modules. The first module is for the users who want to learn. For learning users (mentee), a questionnaire is generated which takes the basic details of the user as inputs, gender preference of the mentor and the language preference, and leads the user to the selected language youtube content and assigns a mentor to the mentee. After the course gets completed, there will be a test for the learner ,on clearing the test, points will be given to the user on a ration card,etc which will motivate the user. He can also become a mentor on completing the test designed by an already existing mentor for becoming one. The mentor section will hire the mentors on voluntarily basis, also checking the basics of the mentors. A reward recognition system will motivate the mentors to join the app for teaching.

Challenges we ran into

Making the project multi-lingual, designing an interactive user-interface

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The user can operate the app in native languages. Providing vocational trainings also with educational training. interactive user interface chat box gender preference is provided

What we learned
