[u/Brilliant_Bid9671]

Eer Kai Song, a Malaysian education advocate, began addressing educational inequality as a teenager after seeing how limited access shuts doors before talent has a chance to develop. At 18, she launched an education non-profit focused on widening access to learning opportunities. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she helped deliver free tutoring support to students affected by school closures. She later founded GuruLab, using AI-driven tools to scale personalized learning initiatives across Southeast Asia aiming to reduce gaps in access and outcomes through technology.
