Sherpa Learning
Our mission is to open doors for high-achieving learners through access to high quality, skills-based instruction written by rock-star teachers. We are authors, editors, educators, and content specialists committed to creating a diverse selection of resources that focus on advanced learners—a student demographic whose needs have long been ignored and devalued. We've worked for and with educational start-ups and mega corps alike, and at both levels found an astounding lack of (and disinterest in developing) AP* student resources. Even among the educational leaders, giants with giant resources, there is very little attention paid to top-tier students. We know high-achieving students need, want, and deserve the same opportunities as other students. Being ahead of the curve should not suppress opportunity. Sharp minds especially crave advancement, creativity, diversity, and competition. We also know they need help with not only mastering every aspect of their course load, but with being challenged in creative and varied ways so that they too can continue to grow and redefine their potential. We also will not deny that the founders of Sherpa Learning relate to these high-achieving students and their lesser educational marketplace appeal, because we were them (and still are—we will never be done learning).
