EH products and services reflect an integration of our understanding
of the day-to-day challenges of schools- both their students
as well as their teachers, and also of upwardly and outwardly
mobile Indian companies.
Extensive dialogue with students, their parents and their
teachers have led us to believe that their efforts to become
fluent in English could use a fillip in the form of our
solutions.
And the best part? Unlike other offerings currently in
the market, our solutions do NOT require schools and offices
to have expensive computing infrastructure, Smart Boards
or Plasma screens.
