Product Designer

Suraasa is a teacher mobility and upskilling platform empowering educators to meet the demands of modern classrooms while creating global career opportunities. 

What problem are we solving?

The global education system is at a crossroads: a severe shortage of qualified teachers threatens the future of millions of students. Developed nations like the U.S. and the U.K. face thousands of unfilled teaching positions, while many classrooms globally lack access to skilled educators. This pressing challenge calls for innovative solutions, and Suraasa is at the forefront of the change.

How are we solving it?

With over half a million educators on its platform, Suraasa offers globally recognized courses accredited by renowned institutions and awarding bodies. These programs focus on core teaching competencies, including pedagogy, classroom management, and the use of digital tools. They also equip educators to teach inclusively and to adapt to diverse cultural contexts. This holistic preparation ensures teachers can excel in any educational setting.

Suraasa partners with top schools globally to help them hire ready and qualified teachers from talent-rich regions like India, South Africa, and the Philippines. This approach bridges the gap between teacher supply and demand while enabling teachers to build thriving international careers.
