Why Prenda?
Prenda is on a mission to empower learners. We help people run microschools, where small groups of kids meet in a home and own their education. The model is helping light a fire for kids like Mo-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4nLjauGM3U and many more- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXnJ6lT6aww, and we are just getting started. Imagine a world where kids grow up as empowered learners - they choose to learn, develop their gifts, and apply their passion and grit to solve the world’s big problem.
We know that what got us here will not be enough to take us to the next level of Prenda’s growth, so we are rebuilding the organization. To support thousands of guides and tens of thousands of students, we need to use technology and scalable methods borrowed from consumer marketplace companies. That means leading teams that grow quickly and get a lot done.
