MyEdSpace secures $15M to expand world-class education

Online education
platform MyEdSpace has raised $15 million in Series A funding. White Star Capital led the round with participation from Educapital, Emerge,
Active Partners and Coalition Capital.

Founded in 2022 by
Sean Hirons and Kharis Yanakidis, MyEdSpace is an online learning platform
offering live, interactive lessons for UK students. Lessons are delivered twice
a week by experienced teachers, with all sessions recorded and supported by
workbooks, homework, and step-by-step video solutions.

Teachers are
selected through a rigorous process from the top 1 per cent in the UK. They deliver
live lessons to thousands of students simultaneously and have built a social
media audience of over 4 million, presenting complex topics in familiar
formats.

The company’s
mission is to make a world-class education accessible to all, using top
teachers and technology to deliver engaging learning at scale.

Sean Hirons,
co-founder of MyEdSpace, said:

We set out to
combine the best teachers, leading technology, and the power of social media to
build a platform that delivers the education that young people want and
deserve. Our model makes learning affordable and ends the postcode lottery of
achievement.

The new funding
will support hiring more teachers, adding subjects, and advancing AI-powered
learning tools to improve the student experience. The company is now scaling
its UK model across the Atlantic, with initial US courses launching in October.
