Hello Hunters and Makers, I’m Avinash Bansal, founder at TomoClub. I have been a part of the Product Hunt community for sometime now and every day I am inspired by watching fellow maker's journey on this platform. :) Today, I’m excited to launch on Product Hunt for the first time. My co-founder and I have built and scaled two companies before. Throughout my entrepreneurship journey, we realized the importance of social and emotional skills (SEL). Whether it was working with our team, investors, customers, or partners, it was these skills which makes all the difference. SEL has been around for more than 25 years, but its importance is felt harder with pandemic than ever before. Yet it's been delivered in a very non-engaging video or lecture based format. I think as more parents are worried about their kids' future, the importance of these skills are skyrocketing. Also with more than 75% of kids aged 8-14 years in the US on Roblox and Minecraft, a lot of parents see gaming as a fantastic tool of teaching, TomoClub's Core Curriculum is designed for grades (3-9) with progressive levels covering all essential Social and Emotional skills. We have Curriculum Experts, Child Psychologists and Educational Consultants onboard who have worked with thousands of kids in the US and Game Designers who have developed 100+ games for kids. We love Product Hunt; as a special offer to the PH community -- We are offering a free class to all. Additionally, you can use the coupon PH50 and get 50% on the first month’s subscription. Any support or feedback is highly appreciated as we are trying to make learning fun and engaging. Our team will be here all day to read your comments and answer questions. Feel free to book a free class on our website to experience it yourself! Thank you so much! Avinash Founder, TomoClub

@eliastt @avinash_dtu The only regret I have is that you didn't launch it 20 years ago when I was a kid myself!

Wow, I think it's future of learning!
avinash

@avinash_dtu : Interesting idea.. Thanks for it.. However quick clarification, was there any validation done earlier with such young kids? What is the problem you are trying to address? Why do you think Parents should encourage Kids to play games and increase screen time? Why do you think this is better compared to any outdoor/in-person games ? Just to better understand your perspective here. In my opinion, in-person social & personality development is the best for such kids (specially post covid) and any addictive (gaming) habits might impact overall development/growth
avinash
@rahulkapoor Thanks for those questions Rahul - With more than 75-percent of kids between the ages of 8 and 14 in the U.S. playing games like Roblox and Minecraft, a lot of parents and educators are beginning to see gaming as a fantastic tool for teaching. - TomoClub is more like ethical screen time for kids where they are able to talk to peers and share their strategy while playing our multiplayer games - It's definitely not in comparison to physical games, I am all support to outdoor activities!! In addition to TomoClub encouraging more interesting learning methods, the detailed assessment that comes after every learning session helps parents track their child's progress and ensure that they are making the most of their time in TomoClub. Educational games are an active medium for learning, kids are coached by SEL experts who guide the students in the direction that fits their learning styles. Therefore, parents can feel reassured that their children are able to express themselves in a supportive, safe, and educationally nurturing setting.

This is really, really cool @avinash_dtu Great mission to build a startup around. Like any parent out there having tools to empower our kids emotionally is a huge deal. Congrats and lots of success.
avinash
@cristinaimre Thanks so much for those kind words After running 2 startups, i realised SEL is most important skills, and we should not be experience dependent to be proficient in that, rather do deliberate practise for the same
