Sim Shagaya-led uLesson launches in 5 African countries

uLesson, the education technology startup company founded by one of Nigeria’s top startup ecosystem players, Sim Shagaya, has launched its uLesson app and is targeting high school students in Nigeria, Ghana, Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Gambia.

According to the company, the app contains a holistic curriculum-relevant learning experience in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. With the app, users can prepare for regional examinations such as WASSCE, SSCE, GCE and UTME, and international tests such as SATs.

BusinessDay reported that uLesson employs a simple and personalised approach to learning, leveraging quality lesson plans from the best tutors to amplify each student’s learning ability, encouraging deep and continued learning for students. The app delivers education taught by subject matter experts using videos, interactive animations, quizzes, assessments and several years of official WAEC past examinations along with solutions.

Sim Shagaya, founder and CEO of uLesson Education Limited, said, “Learning is a crucial part of a child’s quest for academic excellence and success in life. The kind of universities and other tertiary institutions that they get into and, to some degree, the future that awaits them beyond their school years is largely determined by the learning opportunities and platforms available to them in their secondary school years. It is imperative then that investments are made in education that will help students be the best they can be, and in learning platforms that prepare them for a future in various disciplines and subjects, thus making them citizens for the world of tomorrow. It is with this knowledge that we designed the uLesson App; to particularly meet the needs of African students at the secondary school level and at all levels in the future.”

Al-hassan Yusuf Junior vice president, marketing and analytics uLesson, added: “uLesson is the first of its kind in Africa. We have leveraged technology to provide a learning solution that is of high-quality, affordable and accessible. Our team of passionate and talented people have built a learning experience that is unprecedented in richness, scope, interactivity, and effectiveness. Our personalised learning approach, the depth of our content, and our service which allows users to request free counselor visits from uLesson set us apart. We also go a step further to provide analytics and data reporting for parents and guardians to monitor their child’s academic growth and guide them to optimise their learning experience.”
