Live Group Learning for Teachers and Leaders

Circles creates small learning communities of 2-5 people who learn together. Our technology facilitates meaningful connections while maintaining the flexibility of online learning. Each group sets their own schedule, and our platform guides them through structured learning activities.

Circles excels in programs that benefit from discussion, peer learning, and practical application. This includes leadership development, communication skills, teaching methodologies, and technical skills.

The group's social commitment creates accountability and motivation that last throughout the program. Live sessions, a steady weekly rhythm, and instructor support keep participants engaged from start to finish — nobody has to push through alone.

Participants join the platform and form learning groups of 2-5 people based on shared availability and interests. Each group sets a fixed weekly meeting time. Our platform structures their learning journey through weekly guided sessions, where groups meet virtually or in person. Participants receive feedback from instructors after each session.

Each participant browses the course's open circles, with their meeting time, host and members, and requests to join the one they prefer; the circle's host accepts the request. Participants can also create their own circle. If someone cannot find a group, our support team helps.

We believe effective learning happens through active engagement and meaningful human connection. Our platform guides small groups through structured activities that combine individual preparation, group discussion, and practical application. Rather than passive content consumption, participants learn by doing, teaching others, and receiving personalized feedback.

More than 10,000 teachers from more than 500 schools have learned with Circles. Our approach is grounded in the principles of social learning, active learning, and continuous feedback.
