Afrilearn is Africa’s leading K-12
personalised learning app, empowering
primary and secondary school learners to
achieve academic success with ease.
A short story
It all started in a small cubicle in 2019. Growing up, we saw countless young Africans held back, not by a lack of talent, but by a lack of access to quality education.
It was heartbreaking to see so much potential go unrealised, knowing that whatever goes into a mind comes out in a life. With hope and a belief that technology could change the story, Afrilearn was born to bring world-class education to every child across and beyond Africa, regardless of their background.
When COVID-19 shut schools, Afrilearn became a lifeline, keeping thousands of children connected to learning. Today, over 3 million learners, parents, teachers and schools are rewriting their futures and succeeding with Afrilearn, proving that every child deserves the chance to thrive. From all of us at Afrilearn, thank you ❤️
