We're Multiplying STEM Teaching Capacity Across Africa

30X faster, 10X cheaper than traditional training. Powered by AI + community facilitators. Trusted by Dell Technologies, Gates Foundation, and UNESCO.

Africa's Education Crisis Demands a New Solution

Learning Poverty Crisis

80% of African children can't read or perform basic math by age 10
Traditional approaches aren't closing the gap fast enough

Massive Teacher Shortage

15 million new teachers needed by 2030
Training certified teachers takes 4+ years and costs $$$

Geographic Inequality

Quality STEM education concentrated in major cities
Rural and underserved communities left behind

Traditional solutions can't scale fast enough. We're building a new model.

The Teacher Multiplier Model: AI + Community = 10X Impact

Traditional Model:

1 certified teacher (4+ years training)
→ 30-40 students per classroom
→ Limited individual attention
→ High infrastructure costs

Cost per student: $500/year

iNERDE Model:

1 community facilitator (AI-assisted)
→ 10 students per learning pod
→ Personalized AI tutoring
→ Home/community center (no buildings)

Cost per student: $50/year

Same quality education. 10X more affordable. 30X faster to scale.

Three Ingredients. Exponential Impact.
