Context

Education faces significant challenges worldwide, particularly in underserved regions. Limited access to quality education, insufficient resources, and a shortage of qualified teachers hinder students' learning and future opportunities.

Traditional teaching methods may not suit individual learning needs, leading to disengagement and lower academic outcomes.

Additionally, AI's potential in education is limited due to the lack of localized and unbiased training data, affecting students from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. Addressing these issues is crucial to create an equitable and inclusive learning environment, empowering all students to succeed in today's rapidly changing world.
