      Byju Raveendran: Creating a dynamic online tutoring model

      The teacher turned tech entrepreneur has developed one of India’s top education apps

      Bangalore, July 22,2019: Byju Raveendran poses for a picture in his office in Bangalore. Byju Raveendran, from Azhikode, a coastal village in Kerala, was an engineer with a UK-based shipping company when he began helping a few friends crack the entrance test to the IIMs using his shortcuts. He aced the test himself, scoring 100 percentile, but did not join any of the IIMs. Starting with small groups of students he graduated to teaching from large auditoriums and stadiums, and then via VSAT. He launched Byju’s-The Learning App in 2015. Byju’s is now looking to expand to the US, UK, South Africa and other African and Commonwealth markets. It is already present in the Middle East.
