“Education unlocks opportunity and agency that can change the trajectory of a family for generations.”
Sandra Liu Huang
Head of Education & Vice President, Product
Every child should enter adulthood with the knowledge, skills, habits, and agency they need to realize their full potential. We believe that applying what we know from the fields of learning science and human development to education is the most promising way to achieve this vision.
In service of this vision, we collaborate with students, educators, and families to create educational tools and experiences that effectively meet the holistic needs of every child.

Focus Areas
We partner with students, educators, and families to build and support tools and programs that make it easier to apply the science of learning and human development.
Whole Child
Providing a truly transformative, personalized learning experience means supporting teachers and students as whole people — supporting not only academic achievement, but also their physical, social, emotional, and identity development.
We support the development of cutting-edge research on how people learn and the implementation of evidence-based practices that empower teachers to support each student according to their unique learning needs.
