    This is my introduction to Pearson and my goodness, what a wonderful program. Everyone learns differently, and bringing the classroom virtually to anyone is such a great thing. I’m impressed that they offer classes from kindergarten on up through the professional level. They would be a blessing to students of any age! x

  2. K-12 is already in my country and I must say that there’s a huge impact to our education. I assume that it also did significant changes in India just like in the Philippines. Virtual studying is hassle free to parents who wants to monitor their children’s studies.
