why now?

Classrooms are growing

Higher education is evolving faster than educators and their institutions can keep up. Rocketing tuition is forcing institutions to increase access to content, resulting in enormous classrooms -- virtual and otherwise -- where students can get lost.

Quality is dropping

The result is a learning experience lacking the substantive feedback and one-on-one mentoring students need in order to thrive. Unsurprisingly, many become disillusioned and a large percentage drop out.

1-on-1 mentoring doesn’t scale

Until now, one-on-one mentoring, which has been shown to produce the highest outcomes, has been neither scalable nor economically viable.

Sense re-sets the balance

between classroom size and student performance, allowing institutions to scale their operations, increase profitability, and ensure a better educated generation of students in the years to come.
