Learning At Home? – Try One Of These Five Best Learning Apps In Hindi
In today’s times, almost every parent and teacher is searching for suitable mobile apps to supplement education for their children via digital. And rightly so, since that is the most practical, easy and enjoyable way to continue education from homes. But the majority of learning apps and digital content available is in English medium and for a Hindi medium student, it is slightly difficult to find a suitable learning option.
A parent whose kids learn in hindi medium shared her concern with us, “(I have loosely translated into english) Sometimes it feels helpless to have nothing for our kids to do because everything digital is available in english language and when I searched for a hindi medium app, all I got was the apps for hindi language learning and not for our kids to learn Math, EVS, Science and Computers in Hindi which is the medium that they understand.”
After digging further. I found that this parent is not alone. As per a report by MHRD, only 17% children go to English medium schools whereas the largest number, 49% of all children are reported to go into Hindi medium schools. The remaining 34% study in other local languages.
We have this large percentage of our students studying in Hindi medium and still we do not have good comprehensive Hindi medium learning apps? How could this be possible?
With this thought, we started searching for an answer and explored and filtered the best apps which I can recommend to the parents whose children want to learn in Hindi language. We found these 5 best mobile apps for learning in Hindi. We have also mentioned reasons why you should use them. Feel free to understand your situation and read the “Why use the …..

Summary
We have been involved with the school education sector for some time and connected with a lot of parents, teachers and students who study in hindi medium. Many of those teachers were skeptical about online learning earlier. Many parents raised concerns about giving their child a mobile app. But after the lockdown, all of these teachers and parents have been asking us if we could recommend some online educational tools and mobile apps in hindi medium to them, and therefore this article. They have realized the value of an in-home digital education supplement for their children.
Most parents and teachers are today seeing educational apps as a strong empowerment and also realizing that it needs some parental involvement and guidance to ensure best value from the apps. They are happy that they can monitor the usage and their child can discover ways to learn more things beyond just subjects.
In the end, we would like to share something we all know: students learn best in their mother tongue or local languages. We are sure that more learning apps will come in hindi medium and other local languages like gujarati, marathi, tamil, telugu, kannada and also the current apps will keep adding and enriching more digital content for our students.
I hope the above information helps you to choose and try the learning app in hindi best suited for your requirements. Do share your experiences and inputs on this with us at [email protected]
