New Delhi, February 20, 2016: With considerable evidence attesting the fact that blended learning significantly improves student learning outcomes, more and more coaching centres in the country have started adding online assessments facility to their regular classroom teaching.
Going the extra mile is TCYonline, the pioneers in online testing in India, empowering coaching institutes supplement their classroom teaching with online testing on a co-branded testing platform. Online tests help the students fully assess their performance in the class and benchmark themselves nationally.
Be it a Combined Admission Test (CAT) for IIMs, Railways, Banking or PTE, TCYonline is there to help coaching centre students. The company’s specially designed program for coaching centres is a boon for those situated in small towns and cities. With over 230 million question attempts, the company attracts the largest chunk of test-takers preparing for various competitive exams.
Online testing not only helps coaching centres in familiarizing their students with the actual exam format but it facilitates in delivering exam prep that is distinctive and personalized. Teachers have become more productive with instant access to actionable real-time reports. Better understanding of their class and knowledge gaps of each student enables them to well-plan their lectures. Ready access to tagged question banks further saves time and effort.
“Cashing in on its rich repository of content through its platform, the company will soon offer end-to-end solutions to coaching centres right from student leads, to Organization Management System (OMS) to assessment solutions both on web and a mobile app,” reveals TCYonline CEO, Mr. Kamal Wadhera.
This has been possible due to direct student enrolments on the platform from every nook and corner of the country. For the uninitiated, over 500,000 students prepared through the platform last year. The figure is estimated to shoot up to a million this year.
“The day is not far off when one can see a rating of a coaching institute a la hotel on our website which will help a student choose a best coaching institute in his/her area. The idea is to provide top test prep facilities even in the remotest corners of the country,” the CEO adds.
At the same time it is also true that with the increasing Internet penetration and awareness, students today don’t settle for anything less than the best. They prefer to learn using new-age testing tools at their own pace. In fact, coaching centres are under constant fear of losing their students to progressive institutes using assessment solutions to deliver an awesome classroom experience.
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS:
• Personalized learning
• Students’ active role
• National benchmarking
• Remedial analytics
• Customized outputs
If we closely observe this market, most of vendors offering assessment solutions are technology companies with little or no test prep experience. On other hand, the company’s 16 years of awesome classroom delivery experience comes very handy in developing reliable test prep solutions that meet the real requirement of test-takers, teachers and centre-owners.
The company boasts of a huge team of researchers, academicians, and teachers, tech savvy enthusiasts that constantly strive to deliver the highest quality products and services to its customers.
It is very optimistic about this program and sees over 50,000 coaching centres using its platform for delivering best-in-class personalized exam prep to their students. The company saw 200% growth in coaching centre acquisition this financial year and expects exponential increase in the coming years.
