A study states that 1 in 2 Indian children can’t read books meant for their reading levels. Through Flourish, we aim to solve the problem by working on reading comprehension using a bilingual method. Also by instilling values and breaking stereotypes, we have adopted a gender-sensitized approach throughout the learning journey. Thereby covering all the important learning aspects at minimum expenditure.

Why the bilingual approach?

By adopting the bilingual technique, Flourish aims to inculcate better reading comprehension, while improving the native language skills of the learners.

The new National Education Policy emphasises on the importance of bilingual approach to learning and recommends the use of learning material in learners’ mother tongues.

Bilingual education is a proven methodology in garnering the interest of students towards learning languages.

Research suggests that learning English the bilingual way, i.e. by leveraging the native language skills, leads to the quicker grasping of new words and complex concepts, as a result of the familiarity of the native language.

Various research studies suggest that early focus on bilingualism can result in significant social understanding  and cognitive development in children.

Testimonials

The Flourish book series is a refreshing change that helps students triangulate the meaning of stories through English, Tamil, and engaging visuals. It is bound to make a deep and positive impact on young minds as they learn how to use words to shape their worlds. This is an initiative that urgently needs to be replicated across Indian schools.

I absolutely love how Flourish has used stories to bridge Tamil and English language learning in ways that could help students build their strengths in both languages at once. Especially for children who are first-generation learners of either language, Flourish would be an essential resource, making the process fun, and most importantly, accessible to all!
