This website comprises all the subject lessons from class 1st to 7th. Besides the lessons, other study materials like audio information and educational YouTube videos, that give profound knowledge about the subject are also uploaded on the website. The website shows simple solutions to complex problems, and mini exams as well. This facility has been designed accordingly by multinational companies. So far, the teacher, Darshan, has handled the website at a maintenance cost of Rs 64,000 for about four years on his own. He teaches the lessons to the students via this website.
