Job description

About Third Space Learning

Our mission is to close the attainment gap by ensuring every student is able to access great quality tutoring to help them succeed in, and love, their learning.

AI tutoring transforms access and cost - allowing infinitely scalable high-quality education for all.

Third Space Learning works in partnership with schools to provide curriculum-aligned programs of one-to-one spoken AI maths tutoring to the students who need it most - significantly reducing the cost of providing tutoring by up to 95% - whilst increasing access to all students who require support.

We are one of the first movers in the AI tutoring market and are building the most evidenced AI tutoring solution that will change students' lives. The scale of the problem we seek to solve is significant; there are 11 million disadvantaged students in the US, 1.7 million disadvantaged students in the UK, and hundreds of millions more in global markets.
