About Proximity Learning

Established in 2009, Proximity Learning has pioneered using web conferencing technology to stream certified teachers into a classroom when a teacher could not be found locally. Students are able to see, learn and interact with a teacher "live" each day within their school classrooms, directly addressing the teacher shortage crisis.
