New Delhi: Digital activity and dashboard boxes for classes, teachers visit homes to teach three or four children and, of course, online lessons – Pandemic Covid-19 has brought sea changes in preschool education.
And parents are not grateful for the experience offered by the PlaySchool company.
When Singh Teenvert testified, registering his 3-year-old son in one class like that made him stay engaged.
Said Gurugram Resident Singh, whose son is now in Nursery at St.
Xavier’s School: “Because of the pandemic, my son is limited to the house and he will keep an eye on the cartoon on TV.
But I registered it in Klay Prep Schools & Day Care Online Preschool.
The physical touch cannot be replicated and difficult to make it sit, but at least he can talk to Children from their age and have fun showing off toys.
“Unlike Singh, Kalpana Bhardwaj, a doctor from Delhi based in Mumbai, chose Kare @ Home offered by the same company.
Under this scheme, the teacher visited the student’s house.
“My daughter was anxious when a stranger was around.
When I found out about Kare @ Home, a group of us came together and a teacher returned to take a class with three other children.
We turned classes in their homes.
In a few months I have seen trust.
Myself my daughter grew up, “Bhardwaj said.
For many families, class at home is a welcome intervention.
Flinto Learning Solutions, which has a flintoclassteacher @ Home, starts with 200 children in Chennai and Hyderabad.
After pausing briefly because of the revival of Covid, Flinto has restarted the home class and registration has risen.
“Half of our income comes from five cities of Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Chennai and Hyderabad,” said Arunprasad Durairaj, CEO, Flinto.
“Along with the numeracy skills of letters, we also provide some social experiences to students.” Before the second wave of Covid, Kare @ Home has around 450 children listed in Delhi-NCR.
Valuable classes between Rs 10,000 and Rs.12,000 a month, with about two hours of class a day, depending on the age group.
The company continued home class from July.
Some companies also provide activities for pre-school children.
This is a box filled with activities.
Activities teach different concepts and each box has a different theme.
Prices of boxes are different throughout the company and most are subscribed.
AK Srikanth, CEO and Founder of Klaya, explained, “This is the playschool in the box where the activity comes from the intelligence system found by Howard Gardner.
We also have online resources to help parents use boxes to teach their children.
Some activities This can be done alone, some need the presence of parents.
“Venita Kaul’s education, Professor Empedkar, Ambedkar University Delhi, felt dependent on activities, these boxes were better than online lessons.
“If there are activities that promote imaginative games, such as building blocks, puzzles, pictorial books, and free games, it helps children.
If they involve parents, they increase bonds.
This is good because it’s not good to expose children Which is younger to a long screen time, “said Kul.
Vibha Kumar, who has run a small creative mind of pre-school since 1992, also agreed that the online class is really burdensome to TOTS.
“The span of attention of children is short and all efforts can be canceled.
Online education can also be addictive,” Kumar said.
