A marketer and an educationist, Sejal has been leveraging her expertise to revolutionise education by advocating for the development of secondary skills in children. She promotes innovative approaches of integrating coding and problem-solving skills into students' learning experiences.

Sejal Samar Jodhwat serves as the Chief Marketing Officer at FutoLearn EdTech Pvt. Ltd.

Raised in Bangalore, Sejal completed her schooling there itself. She pursued a BBM in Finance from Mount Carmel College, Bangalore, followed by an MBA in Marketing from IIMM, Pune.

After completing her education, she worked with some companies like ITC, ICICI Prudential, and India Infoline. Some time later she got married, and after becoming a mother of two, she began imparting life lessons to her children. Gradually, it led her to extend her expertise to university students, and she focused on enhancing their public speaking skills. Throughout this time, she recognised the potential of technology in education, which motivated her to join FutoLearn EdTech Pvt. Ltd. five years ago.

Headquartered in Bangalore, FutoLearn operates nationally and internationally under its parent company, Happymomo, specialising in Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality learning techniques. FutoLearn’s core objective is to offer top-notch AI and coding services to schools, prioritising the development of secondary skills. The company facilitates educational institutions in leveraging technology for improved teaching methodologies. Sejal attributes FutoLearn's success to its exceptional service and innovative approach to integrating coding and problem-solving skills into students' learning experiences.

Sejal explains that their primary challenge was introducing the new concept to parents and schools and persuading them to adopt it. Once they received approval from the CBSE, promoting their concept became much simpler. Many schools are now embracing this idea and incorporating it into their curriculum, and more parents are becoming aware of digital education. Personally, Sejal, coming from a commerce background and initially lacking being tech- savvy, found this to be a hurdle but quickly overcame it through her dedication.

Sejal believes that the current academic environment leans heavily towards rote learning, lacking creativity in the curriculum. She proposes providing children with a platform for experiential learning, enabling them to tackle problems and generate multiple innovative solutions. Additionally, she views public speaking as a crucial skill that fosters self-confidence and creative thinking.

Sejal strongly believes in the untapped potential of women, surpassing common perceptions. She encourages women to pursue their passions, taking gradual steps towards their goals. She advises them to continue learning throughout the journey.

Regarding role models, Sejal says she draws inspiration from her parents, attributing her discipline and dedication to their influence. She values learning from every individual and emphasises the importance of mutual growth.

She believes that, to thrive in this field, a genuine passion for connecting with children is necessary, as it aligns with the company's mission. Personally, she adheres to the three "Ds" in life: dedication, determination, and discipline, with her motto being "Network is net worth."

Sejal regards education as integral to personal growth and stresses the importance of remaining a consistent learner to gain experience.

When free, she enjoys listening to music, singing, and dancing.
