"As an education company, we've talked to so many parents and families—and we understand the real challenges they face when it comes to their kids' learning. They've got questions like, how can I help my child succeed in school? Are after-school programs really worth it? Or maybe even does my child need a tutor? And some parents tell us their kids are really struggling with specific subjects—spelling, writing or math for kids—and they just don't know where to start. That's exactly why we created TalPad," said Yujing Sun, General Manager of Think Academy. "TalPad was built to help solve these very problems. Meanwhile, we believe that with the development of AI technology, every kids deserves—and should have—easier access to high-quality educational resources. It is a right for every kids and individual in this era. TalPad is more than a learning tablet, it's like giving every child their own elite mentor."
