Live teaching.
Thoughtful technology.

Unwire explores how Protostar brings personal interaction and a structured curriculum to online English learning.

In the interview, founder Antony Chen explains why live teachers remain central to children’s learning. Teachers respond to each student’s understanding, emotions and interests, creating space for meaningful English conversation.

The report also looks at Protostar’s curriculum, informed by the Common Core State Standards, and classes with up to two students. AI supports the work behind the scenes, helping the team develop learning experiences while teachers guide the conversation.
