An Ontario high school student created a free online learning platform that students around the world can use to stay on top of their studies during the pandemic.

Sophia Joffe is a Toronto-area high school student at Country Day School who created eLearn.fyi: an online database compiled of more than 300 online learning tools. Students are able to access her website to create an online learning profile where they can manage their studies in a coherent approach.

“It was really difficult and it was really stressful knowing that right after March Break we were jumping into a totally new online learning system - it was so much different than an in-class instruction,” said Joffe in an interview with CTV’s Your Morning on Friday.She expected that there would be added resources to help students cope as they transitioned to an online learning environment, but her expectations fell short.

Like many students, Joffe is concerned the COVID-19 pandemic has caused learning loss for many students. Her goal isn’t only to alleviate the stress the pandemic has put on students, but eliminate learning loss altogether.
