The LearnThat Journey

Who we are

LearnThat Foundation aka eSpindle Learning started from parents' initiative and a vision of a 100% personalized solution. The “founding mothers” had gone through endless hours tutoring their children to help them expand their vocabulary and spelling skills.

With vocabulary being a core component of a successful education we wondered:
Wasn’t there a better way for this repetitive task?

Looking at existing programs we found that nothing was attentive or resourceful enough to fit the bill. We were looking for a comprehensive, resource-rich tool that managed the learning process, self-adjusting to the goals, the individual ability and skill level of each learner.

Since we couldn't find such a tool, we set out to create it.
