What is VIEW?
VIEW stands for Virtual Interactive English Workshop. VIEW is the first classroom based LIVE ONLINE English language teaching system and a pioneer of interactive teaching methodology. We use real people live online represented on classroom screens as avatars (animated characters). Our living and breathing avatars accurately and precisely mimic the teacher’s actions.

What is an avatar?
An avatar is a computer generated character used to represent a person on screen. Our avatars are able to show a wide spectrum of human emotions, while at the same time allow them to interact, teach and entertain your children. As our teachers are real people working in real time; the children will interact with the avatar like a normal “in Class” teacher, only they will be having a lot more fun.

How does it work?
We have developed a technology that combines facial recognition software and video motion capture technology that allows us to render facial movements of a real person into that of an animated character. Coupled with this we use a private internet connection to render the character in real-time to our classrooms worldwide.

How do the avatars mimic human characteristics?
Using VIEW’s revolutionary software, we can digitally map a teacher’s face so that when they do anything on their face it will be translated to the avatar on the screen. So this is a living breathing animation that will be able to interact with the students and take teaching to a level that has not been seen before.

What benefits does an avatar have over a real teacher?
Over time the fascination a child has with a teacher can fade while being able to interact with an animated character will fascinate them and keep their attention for a long time. Children love cartoons, but this is the first time where they can interact with a character that will know them by name and act in the same way a real teacher would.

Is there another product like this?
No there is not! VIEW is revolutionary in the content delivery and with its technology to teach young students in this cutting edge medium.

Why is VIEW the best product out there?
VIEW has come to life by listening to the needs of educators, schools, parents and most importantly students. VIEW takes advantage of cutting edge technologies and world class curriculums to deliver a product that is unparalleled on the market today.

Why is it important for children to start learning English early?
Many experts have stated that the best time to acquire language skills is when a child’s brain is still developing. This is a crucial time for a child where they are shaped into the person they will become in the future. VIEW will help unlock your child’s maximum potential and give them the many opportunities that come with learning other languages.

Why does VIEW look more like playing that learning?
Teaching children, particularly young children means we must keep them engaged at all times. They learn best when they are having fun. We have designed our curriculum so that they are learning at all times.

Why is this better than a computer program?
A computer program is a great learning tool, but it has its limitations and will never be the answer to outright fluency. Students of English must have live conversation to master the language. VIEW is a Live English Teacher that is represented as an avatar who is there to facilitate your child’s language acquisition and guide the student through the program while increasing the interaction!

How do I know that the VIEW Program works?
VIEW has brought together experienced educators and ground-breaking technology. We have developed our system specifically for young learners employing seasoned curriculum developers to help craft this wonderful and unique learning experience.

How does VIEW benefit your school?
VIEW will benefit your school in so many ways that it is too long to include on this page. Briefly, a few ways that you would benefit is by staying ahead of your competition with an innovative and unique product while not having to employ an expensive foreign teacher.

You will not have to pay for accommodations, high hourly rates, worry if they are doing a good job, or in the case of some schools employ a teacher illegally just so that you can compete.
