Our mission
Building prepared students, confident leaders, and successful citizens.
In 2019, we had a vision to reimagine what education should look like for students, parents, teachers, and schools.
At TECO, we leverage machine learning and artificial intelligence technology to personalize learning and to make sure everyone receives an effective, efficient, and enjoyable education.
Our beginnings
We started with big dreams to fix education's biggest problem.
We realized the biggest problem students face worldwide is that schools often expect the same out of everyone, but individual skills vary widely.
Some know how to balance play with work and how to use stress to an advantage. But others are left sleeping at 4:00am everyday and simply accept a “I’m just really bad at exams” mindset.
That had to change.
Our journey
We brought foundational study strategies back into style.
We brought years of educational research and our expertise in machine learning and AI technology to address the study skills discrepancy in a manner different from traditional boring "life skills" classes.
We now share our innovative Study Strategies Curriculum across the world, making sure that everyone has a chance to build strong academic foundations.
Our dreams
We're a team that will never stop building innovative programs and services to enhance education.
Having expanded to five countries, we're now building a TECO app for a better tutoring experience, a proprietary algorithm to link students to the "perfect match" teacher, a visual math learning platform & curriculum, a Speak Korean App with built-in voice recognition technology, a Korean vocabulary building mobile game, and several educational quizzes.

"TECO started as a little dream to see what I could do to change education's biggest problems.
And when I first started, knocking on schools' doors and reaching out to students in Korea, people thought I was crazy - that I was too young and the market too crowded.
But with the right people by my side and with a collective deep passion in the work we do, we've grown to a team of over fifty across five countries in less than a year.
As we grow, however, our mission to build prepared students, confident leaders, and successful citizens will never change."
Taesun Shim, Founder & CEO
