Early Steps Academy

Mumbai, September 2024 Early Steps Academy (ESA), a global leader in case study-based learning for children, has reached an incredible milestone by welcoming a new learner from Guyana, making it the 100th country to join their global learning community. Founded in 2021 by Harvard Business School alumni- Sneha Biswas, ESA offers after-school programs designed to expose children aged 8-18 to essential 21st-century subjects like Entrepreneurship, Space Technology, Climate Change, Applied Mathematics, Finance, and STEM.

ESA’s growth comes at a time when the global education landscape is in dire need of innovation. According to UNESCO, over 1.5 billion students were affected by school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic, and many education systems have struggled to adapt to the demands of the 21st century. Traditional curricula often fail to equip students with practical skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, and global awareness—all areas that ESA is addressing through its unique learning model. The academy’s unique case study method allows children from diverse geographies to engage with real-world scenarios, helping them develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills early in life. With a growing presence in the USA, Europe, India, Canada, and now Guyana, ESA is bridging the gap left by traditional education systems by preparing young minds for success in a tech-enabled, rapidly changing world.

Reaching learners in 100 countries signifies ESA’s rapidly growing global influence and underscores the universality of its curriculum, which emphasizes 21st-century skills, interdisciplinary learning, and communication. From the USA to Southeast Asia and Africa, ESA’s learners represent a diverse demographic, bringing a rich variety of perspectives to their case study-based learning model. The program’s global expansion also enhances ESA’s ability to host events, workshops, and competitions, giving students cross-border learning opportunities.

“Our rapid expansion in not just USA and Canada, but also to countries like Guyana, Gabon, and Somalia highlights the global need for more engaging, relevant education,” said Sneha Biswas, Founder and CEO of Early Steps Academy. “As we move forward, we are even more determined to scale up and continue our mission of providing high-quality education that prepares the next generation for the challenges of the future.”

Looking ahead, Early Steps Academy aims to further expand its footprint, reaching 150+ countries by 2025. With plans to deepen its curriculum offerings and forge partnerships with local educational institutions, ESA continues its commitment to providing innovative, future-ready education to students across the globe.

By building a community of 120,000 students from 100 countries, ESA is well on its way to revolutionizing education on a global scale, ensuring that children everywhere are equipped with the skills they need to thrive in the 21st century.

Early Steps Academy is bridging the educational gap across the globe, providing world-class learning to students everywhere—from developed countries like the USA and Canada to more underserved regions like Gabon, Guyana, and Somalia. By offering live global classrooms and small group discussions, ESA ensures that children, regardless of their location, receive a tailored, engaging education that meets their unique needs and empowers them to thrive.
