ProblemMany people have tried to tackle how to help students succeed in traditional
subjects, but few have tackled one of the most pressing problems:
What makes kids WANT to learn?

SolutionMotivate kids to learn through project-based mentorships.
my Path
The goal of myPath is to inspire and motivate kids to learn. Through mentorships withworking professionals, kids learn how their education is relevant to future careers.
Education based on results: kids work on projects that they choose. Throughout thecourse of each project, they learn traditional educational subjects as well as life skillsnot taught in classes.
Mix: myPath is a flexible learning structure which involves both “theory classes” withteachers and hands-on practice with professionals.
