One-to-one language learning edtech platform instrucko, has recently closed its Pre-Series A funding round by raising $1 million. The funding round was led by MVK Group, a Venture Capital Firm based out of London which manages some of the leading business families across Dubai, Singapore, London, and Switzerland who executed the investment. This is a follow on from the December Seed round.

"instrucko prides itself on creating superior content to improve the learning pedagogy. Our focus has always been on great content and great teaching while technology has only been an aggregator. Our mission is to equip learners with the skills needed to succeed globally. This funding will help us expand, create more content and focus on technology and AI-powered analytics," said Devvaki Aggarwal, founder, and chief executive officer, instrucko.

The amount raised will be further utilized for business expansion across India and the Middle East, with a core focus on providing children between the ages of 3 to 15 access to the most premium content across the world. Not only will instrucko's content continue to give their students a leading edge versus their peers, instrucko will hire leading educationists across the world, which can ensure that their teaching methods are unrivaled.

"After investing and exiting multiple Consumer Brands over the past few years, we were excited to be given the opportunity to invest in instrucko, who we strongly believe brings the highest quality of education to the Indian market. The EdTech market has seen a lot of 'noise' since Covid, with many brands purely launching services just to capitalize on the sudden move to online education. instrucko has been unique in this regard by focusing on bringing content and its delivery which is more suitable for the global marketplace versus the local marketplace, and thus giving each one of their customers an edge over their peers,'' Manish Karani, chief executive officer, MVK Group Venture Capital Firm.

instrucko's ambition continues to be unparalleled and it strives to be the market leader in its realm of content creation and delivery. instrucko's Business-to-Business segment is continuing to see growing demand with schools across India and the Middle East. These schools are utilizing instrucko's content and leading teacher training courses, which allow schools to differentiate their offering through instrucko bringing more certified and specialized courses such as EtonX, the platform shared.
