What JOYO Academy is

JOYO Academy is a learning platform for pre-primary children. It covers the three subjects a child meets first — Bangla, math and English — and teaches them the way children that age actually learn: by looking, listening, tapping and playing, rather than by reading instructions.

Everything lives in one place. A child opens the app and finds their books, their videos and their games, without a parent having to set anything up first.

How children learn here

• Books. Illustrated Bangla, math and English books a child turns page by page, with the artwork drawn for the screen rather than scanned onto it.
• Videos. Short lessons per subject, so a concept can be watched before it is practised.
• Games. Nine kinds of play, each aimed at one skill — painting and colour, memory and scene-building, comparing, matching shapes and pairs, counting, circling the right number, and hunting for hidden objects.

Built for children who cannot read yet

Our youngest users cannot read a menu, so the app tries not to ask them to. Controls are big, bright and wordless; instructions are spoken aloud; the same back and home buttons appear in the same place on every screen. Games run in landscape and full screen, so nothing a child taps by accident takes them somewhere they did not mean to go.

JOYO can also be installed to a phone or tablet's home screen, which opens it as its own app — no browser bars, and one icon a child can find on their own.

For parents and teachers

Parents, teachers and students each get their own view of JOYO. A child sees only their books, videos and games. Parents and teachers see how far through a book a child has read and which games they have played, so the time spent here is visible rather than something to guess at.
