Charitable Program "Recovery of Educational Losses"

The Charitable Foundation "For the Future of Children" and the Optima Distance School are launching the second stage of the programme, which has already helped 9500 children in 2023-2024. This is a unique opportunity for all students in grades 1-11! Students will get free access to educational materials of the first and largest distance school in Ukraine "Optima" in 2 any subjects for 3 months.

This is a real opportunity to catch up on the school curriculum and restore the child's confidence in learning, because every student receives a lesson:

•    entrance testing to identify educational gaps;
•    access to a modern educational platform with interactive materials;
•    individual pace of learning (independently or with adults);
•    a knowledge test and a certificate with grades;
•    support from the Optimus AI assistant, an innovative electronic tutor;
•    modern interactive content: 3D animation, videos, tests, infographics.

What is Optimus?

Optimus is a unique artificial intelligence-based assistant that adapts to each student: it explains complex topics, gives examples, helps to better understand the material and motivates learning. This is 24/7 support that does not replace the teacher, but strengthens the child's independent learning.

The programme is open to students in grades 1-11, regardless of their location, who have suffered from the consequences of the war (displacement, anxiety, lack of access to quality education, etc.) and have knowledge gaps.

The initiative to implement the school knowledge recovery programme is supported by the Optima distance learning school in cooperation with the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. Information about the programme can be found on the website of the Ministry of Education and Science

Our goal is to support students all over Ukraine.

Give your child a chance to catch up on their studies and feel confident!

The “Educational Loss Recovery” program turned out to be a godsend for us. Free access to “Optima” materials helped my son catch up with the curriculum. Mathematics and physics were particularly important for him. Thanks for such an initiative!

The war significantly affected my daughter's education. We were exploring various options to address this situation. The “Educational Loss Recovery” program became our salvation. The learning, lessons, materials, and teacher support are top-notch. Thank you!
Iryna Stefanchuk
Thank you! If not for this program, I don't know how my son would have completed the academic year. He managed to catch up with the curriculum and even developed an interest in learning. We are immensely grateful for the opportunity to use the program. Thanks for the support in such a challenging time!

Our family had to change our place of residence, and it undoubtedly affected our son's education. We discovered the program and decided to give it a try. No regrets. Many thanks for the chance to improve subjects and prepare for future exams.

“Optima” teachers are simply a treasure! Thanks for clear materials, support, and explanations. My son now enjoys English and mathematics. Very grateful for such a valuable resource for our children.
Viktoriia Krivko
We were forced to leave, and, of course, education took a back seat. My daughter lost interest in learning altogether. We decided to try the program from the foundation. Finally! The child is excited about lessons, everything is clear and concise. We covered important topics. Thanks for this opportunity!
