Edulution supplements the overburdened state school systems in Zambia and South Africa with so-called learning centres. There the children can learn after the regular lessons – basic knowledge in mathematics and English is taught by means of tablets and special learning software. Each child is given its own account. This way they can learn individually, actively and at their own pace. The children are attended to by specially trained coaches.
