A decision to homeschool my daughter in 2015 opened up a whole new perspective about education for me. I found that there is an abundance of highly engaging and interesting educational content available online. Using that as a basis, I put together a curriculum for my daughter which proved very effective in achieving her learning outcomes while freeing up a lot of time for her to explore and discover her passion.
However, when I closely observed her using the online material I began to realize that there is a need for a new kind of teacher. A teacher who teaches by pulling together the the best content available online into an engaging and joyful learning experience.
I believe that when this new teacher is equipped with the best curated content and empowered with state of the art technology, learning will be transformed forever. This is the big insight on which Lantern Academy was founded in 2016. Our vision is to inspire the next generation of lifelong learners by putting this new teacher at the heart of all our programs.
