We make learning ashared experiencesharedexperience

Sebastián had seen how good education worked - with connections between students, good conversations, teachers who give personalized feedback, and active learning - but this type of education remained expensive and exclusive.

Circles was born to solve that false dichotomy between quality and scale. Sebastián, a Harvard College graduate with experience as a teacher and in educational public policy, wanted to use technology to make those most valuable elements of quality education accessible to thousands of people without losing effectiveness.
