Learning English just got exciting! Here’s how

by | Jun 30, 2022

Learning English has been of utmost importance in the 21st century. English is spoken by some 1.75 billion people worldwide – that’s one in every four! This article explores how over 100,000 young people across different countries globally are getting paid to learn English!

English is the dominant language of the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and is also an official language of India, the Philippines, Singapore, and many countries in sub-Saharan Africa. As the world’s number one language, it is a tool with which we market ourselves and get things done. 

For non-native English speakers who intend to visit the UK, the US, or Australia for academic or work purposes, their proficiency in English must be certified through the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). 

Every year, millions of people take the IELTS test and hundreds of thousands fail, denying them their academic and career dreams. Learning English is important and with our chatbot – ED the learning bot, you can learn and increase your proficiency in English for FREE.

And as an added advantage, you stand the chance to qualify for our daily 10GB prize every time you learn on our platform. The best part is that it is completely free! 

Solve Education! won’t collect a dime from you at any stage! You increase your mastery of English and get data in the process. How sweet is that?

All you need to participate is a Mobile phone, access to internet and the Telegram app.

Why you’ve not heard about the chatbot that gives free data each week

by | May 6, 2022

Something crossed my mind recently – would people be more eager to share a free data opportunity that they’ve genuinely benefitted from or not? There has been some discussion on the abundance and poverty mindset of late; it’s the argument of whether opportunity reduces or flourishes as more people flock to it. Although when it comes to incentivized learning with free data, people should embrace the abundance mindset and share because learning never ends!

One of the things Solve Education! does through the LEARN AND WIN campaign on Ed the Learning Bot is to give students around the world the opportunity to learn English and Employability skills and get free data or marketplace voucher incentives. Isn’t that amazing? 

Happy to break it to you that the person you called your friend has probably benefited from free data on the LEARN AND WIN campaign, and you were left in the dark!

“Solve Education! has given out free data worth over 4 terabytes or 4,096 Gigabytes to more than 500 students across different countries”

How Nigerian students can win a grant with Solve Education!

by | Mar 17, 2022

At Solve Education, our major goal is to make education and employment accessible to children and youth who do not have access to schools. To achieve this, we leverage technology to create various programs and products. One of which is the ED Social Grant. 

This program takes the form of social voting on Telegram using Solve Education AI chatbot platform- Ed the learning bot. Through the Social Grant, Solve Education! pays undergraduates to build the soft skills they need to lead a meaningful life.

In 2021, over NGN4,000,000 has been invested in youths through the Social Grant. Lack of soft skills among young Nigerian graduates is largely responsible for their unemployability. 

According to a survey conducted in Nigeria, 65% of employers said self-confidence and interpersonal skills are often lacking in graduate recruits. 

So many soft skills are being developed, including but not limited to Communication & Interpersonal Skills, Grit and Determination, Sales & Marketing Skills, Leadership & Social Influence, time management etc.

From our experience connecting our talent community to jobs outside Nigeria, we can understand that- Hard skills get you the job. Soft skills make you keep the job.

Thousands of youths all over the country have participated in our programs and are better for it. 

“Solve Education! has helped me polish my networking and communication skills.  It has also helped in boosting my confidence level and provided an avenue for meeting people of like minds” – Ikenna, a ED Social Grant Participant.

As Ikenna mentioned, participants in ED Social Grant get to partake in our community of highly driven youths over the country.  

Interested in learning soft skills and being paid in the process?
