APOLO KIDS: an educational platform focused on adaptive learning

In 2021, we had the pleasure of meeting Claudia de La Riva during the edition of Wayra Scale Up Women, an event of leading female entrepreneurs of startups to promote equality in the field of technology and innovation.

Claudia de La Riva is not only among the 100 most influential women in the startup scene in Europe, but her project captivated us with its innovation and revolution.

Apolo KidsApolo Kids, her creation, motivates children through autonomous, interest-based, movement-based learning, using different solutions adapted to each child’s individual talents. It represents a new form of education where each child can chart his or her own path and follow his or her interests freely.

Apolo Kids has a very clear purpose: to revolutionize education so that all children have access to a learning model adapted to their needs, which they enjoy and feel part of.

Why is it essential to adapt the learning process to each child?

In education, recognizing and addressing the individual needs of each child is fundamental to developing an enriching and effective learning environment.

It is essential to understand the uniqueness of each student, recognizing that not everyone learns in the same way or at the same pace. By adopting an adaptive approach, we promote the integral development of each child, fostering their self-esteem, confidence and motivation to learn and focusing on their strengths and virtues.

In an environment where learning is adapted to the needs of each individual, an inclusive space is created where each child feels valued and understood. Doing so fosters a sense of belonging and empowerment, which contributes to children’s self-esteem and emotional well-being.

In addition, adapted learning fosters greater engagement in the educational process. When children feel that their education is tailored to their specific needs, they become more receptive and motivated to actively participate in learning. This allows them to develop greater autonomy and responsibility for their own academic and personal growth.

Adapted learning not only benefits those who face learning challenges, but also enriches the educational experience for all children. By creating an inclusive environment that celebrates diversity of skills and perspectives, a spirit of collaboration and mutual respect is fostered.

To achieve this, Apollo Kids has two solutions, read on to discover them and explore their benefits.
