Problem space

Why teaching in classroom setting might be difficult?

Teachers often grapple with numerous challenges in their educational endeavors, ranging from the scarcity of quality resources to engaging students effectively. Traditional teaching methods may not always resonate with every learner, leading to comprehension issues. Additionally, managing a classroom efficiently, especially in online settings, poses significant hurdles. Assessing student progress and understanding without proper tools can be time-consuming and imprecise. Moreover, fostering seamless communication and collaboration between teachers, students, and parents remains a persistent concern.

The goal

How can we provide comprehensive support for teachers to make the teaching seamless and interactive for students?

How can we provide comprehensive support for teachers to make the teaching seamless and interactive for students?

Let’s dive Into the numbers…

According to a 2018 Gallup poll, 47% of students are engaged in school, 29% are not engaged, and 24% are actively disengaged.

Teachers spend an average of 50 hours per week on instructional duties, including planning and grading. (NEA)

NWEA, only 34% of teachers say their assessments effectively measure student learning.

So, the rationale behind using an online platform...

  • MST's live online classes and interactive resources can help teachers increase student engagement, potentially improving academic performance.


  • MST's assignment management and grading features can significantly reduce this workload, allowing teachers to focus more on teaching.


  • MST's eTextbooks and question banks provide teachers with affordable, curriculum-aligned resources, alleviating financial strain.


  • MST's insights into student learning difficulties enable teachers to tailor their instruction to individual student needs, potentially enhancing learning outcomes.


  • MST's test paper generation and deep insights into student learning difficulties can help teachers create more effective assessments and track student progress more accurately.
