Challenges
Limited Virtual Classroom Experience: Initially relying on a single virtual classroom setup, Pearl found it insufficient to cater to the varied learning needs of all students.
Scalability Constraints: Existing systems lacked the flexibility to meet diverse partner requirements, limiting Pearl’s ability to adapt to specific educational needs and emphasizing the belief that one-size-fits-all solutions were ineffective.
”We encountered a partner ready to collaborate, but our previous virtual classroom setup fell short of their expectations. Discovering HiLink was a game changer—it not only met Pearl’s needs but also aligned perfectly with our partner’s unique teaching methods.“
