Epson supports the journey of learning during the back-to-school season in 2023



Children tend to read differently from books versus screens. Recent research indicates that students may learn better from printed materials compared to using screens, according to Deloitte’s 2022 back-to-school spending survey. The research shows that while digital learning is growing, traditional learning is more effective whilst children are developing. Recognising this trend, Epson’s Back-to-School bundle provides the paper resources that families in the Middle East need to get the most out of educational materials.

This back-to-school season, with the purchase of selected Epson EcoTank printers, families can get a three-year warranty and up to three years’ worth of paper and ink.

The EcoTank L3350 printer offers a seamless experience with no need for cartridge replacements, featuring a 100-sheet rear paper tray and impressive print speeds of up to 15 pages per minute. Whether you are part of a modern and bustling household or seeking high-quality printers, this printer is an ideal choice. Meanwhile, the Epson All-in-One EcoTank L3550 takes print productivity and convenience to new heights within your home. The upgraded PrecisionCore Printhead ensures even faster printing, while the replaceable maintenance box reduces repair downtime, enhancing overall efficiency.

5 of the most-popular Airbnb locations in Dubai

Bobby Grudziecki, chief operating officer of Frank Porter, identifies the five most popular areas in Dubai for those looking to make the most out of their properties and the rates owners can secure:

• Dubai Marina

The Marina and Jumeirah Beach Residence are popular locations, says Mr Grudziecki, due to their closeness to the beach, restaurants and hotels.

Frank Porter’s average Airbnb rent:
One bedroom: Dh482 to Dh739 
Two bedroom: Dh627 to Dh960 
Three bedroom: Dh721 to Dh1,104

• Downtown

Within walking distance of the Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa and the famous fountains, this location combines business and leisure.  “Sure it’s for tourists,” says Mr Grudziecki. “Though Downtown [still caters to business people] because it’s close to Dubai International Financial Centre."

Frank Porter’s average Airbnb rent:
One bedroom: Dh497 to Dh772
Two bedroom: Dh646 to Dh1,003
Three bedroom: Dh743 to Dh1,154

• City Walk

The rising star of the Dubai property market, this area is lined with pristine sidewalks, boutiques and cafes and close to the new entertainment venue Coca Cola Arena.  “Downtown and Marina are pretty much the same prices,” Mr Grudziecki says, “but City Walk is higher.”

Frank Porter’s average Airbnb rent:
One bedroom: Dh524 to Dh809 
Two bedroom: Dh682 to Dh1,052 
Three bedroom: Dh784 to Dh1,210 

• Jumeirah Lake Towers

Dubai Marina’s little brother JLT resides on the other side of Sheikh Zayed road but is still close enough to beachside outlets and attractions. The big selling point for Airbnb renters, however, is that “it’s cheaper than Dubai Marina”, Mr Grudziecki says.

Frank Porter’s average Airbnb rent:
One bedroom: Dh422 to Dh629 
Two bedroom: Dh549 to Dh818 
Three bedroom: Dh631 to Dh941

• Palm Jumeirah

Palm Jumeirah's proximity to luxury resorts is attractive, especially for big families, says Mr Grudziecki, as Airbnb renters can secure competitive rates on one of the world’s most famous tourist destinations.

Frank Porter’s average Airbnb rent:
One bedroom: Dh503 to Dh770 
Two bedroom: Dh654 to Dh1,002 
Three bedroom: Dh752 to Dh1,152
