“A Transformation Is Happening In Education”

Emphasizing that there has been a transformation in education and that borders have disappeared with micro-trainings independent of place and time, FundoMundo Co-Founder Emre Ekmekçi made some statements on the subject.

He said that, they observed that in the new world after the pandemic, children have difficulties in accessing online education and they noticed the lack of a medium where trainers can train independently. Thereupon, they launched the new generation education platform FundoMundo he added. He also said that lessons at FundoMundo take place in micro groups, in the home environment of children and on online platforms and on the platform where creative and entertaining after-school content come together, the operation proceeds with the logic of the marketplace and the trainers create their own content. In this way, hundreds of different lessons are given live in the world of FundoMundo, from science to art, from social skills to foreign languages ​​or sports he added.

“We make the time children spend online with quality” Emre Ekmekçi said and he added that in the post-pandemic period, instead of limiting the time children spend in front of the screen, it has become more important that the content is of high quality and controlled. He said that children have a pleasant time with live activities and workshops under the supervision of an instructor.

“Easy to Use with the System Prepared According to the Needs”

Emphasizing that the entire platform infrastructure was prepared considering the needs of trainers and students, Emre Ekmekçi said that two different roadmaps await users on the platform in terms of their motivation to become trainers or to study the lessons. Students and their parents can practically purchase courses that interest them in terms of content or that fit their schedules. For both sides, all that remains is to wait for the lesson time he said.
