Education Secretary Sonny Angara, together with Khan Academy Philippines led by Chief Operating Officer Myrish Antonio, visited Fernando Ma. Guerrero Elementary School in Paco, Manila, on Thursday to observe the Khan Academy Session with its learners.

During the visit, Secretary Sonny Angara watched how the Grade 5 learners integrated the Khan Academy application into their Mathematics lesson.

In the Philippines, Khan Academy provides free education through courses that are available to learners and teachers that are continuously updating for alignment to the current local curriculum. It also integrates the Khanmigo, an AI-powered tutor in English and Filipino language that guides learners and assists teachers.

Secretary Angara thanked the Khan Academy for the partnership and for providing free tools and personalized learning resources for Filipino learners.

“Thank you for giving us a glimpse of the future. It is something to inspire and aspire for, and we will work hard toward it. You know, sometimes the most difficult part is how to get there, kaya pagtulungan natin ‘yan,” Sec. Angara said.

Khan Academy Philippines, on its part, vowed to provide more learners access to digital learning content and empower them to study at their own pace, both in and out of the classroom, as well as help teachers create lesson plans for fun and engaging activities.

“You will see the possibilities when the parents, the school administration, and the teachers come together to ensure that our learners will have fun learning Math more and more,” Khan Academy Philippines COO Myrish Antonio said.

“This is a good first step, and an insight for you to see how the students use Khan Academy integrated into their class, as well as Khanmigo. We hope you will observe with an open mind and heart, and also see the possibilities of what we can do together,” she added.

From 34 pilot schools, Khan Academy now has 373 partner schools with 130,503 learners and 1,515 teacher beneficiaries. DepEd and Khan Academy Philippines sealed its partnership last August 5, strengthening the foundational skills of Filipino learners in numeracy and literacy through the Khan Academy online course content.
