Founded in 2018 by two London School of Economics alums – Lina Ahmed and Maheen Adamjee – Dot & Line is a technology-based platform that is empowering thousands of female teachers to deliver online classes in Maths, English, and Urdu from the comfort of their own homes. Tutors follow a proprietary, step-by-step learning and development programme built exclusively for Dot & Line by education experts from the world’s leading universities. Dot & Line’s tutors are able to show a 40% increase in student learning outcomes within four months, while earning PKR 24,000 ($150) to PKR 100,000 ($620) every month.

Falcon Network’s investment concludes an exciting twelve months for the Dot & Line – with the business witnessing impressive growth in students, teachers, and revenues during 2020. As well as Dot & Line’s flagship Maths and English content, the company recently launched a high-quality Urdu offering due to increasing demand from Pakistani diaspora communities in the Gulf, Europe, and North America. Dot & Line intends to utilise the latest investment to further develop its technology and expand in key international markets.
