What We Do
Edge Learning is an innovative afterschool program in Austin, Texas. We provide personalized academic support to middle and high school students who aspire to be the first in their family to graduate college.
Students receive in-depth tutoring for core subjects, the college prep process, and life skills. This support is uniquely tailored to each student through high-quality tutors and personalized technology.
Why Us
Our support is intensive, continuous, personalized, and long-term and is made possible by our expert, caring tutors and smart technology. This combination is the reason our results are above and beyond other programs. Students who consistently attend our program raise their grades by more than a letter in every subject we support them on—in addition to significantly improving their confidence, study and organization skills, SAT/ACT scores, and success with college and scholarship applications.
Key Features
