Started by two educators in 2017.

Masterclass Space began in 2017 with two people, Aditya and Atul, working evenings and weekends because they believed students deserved better guidance than they were getting. We have never taken outside funding. Everything we have built has grown on the strength of our students’ results. Our founders still work directly with students and families every week. We care about doing the work properly, and we look for people who feel the same way.

Aditya Shanker Raghuwanshi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Masterclass Space

“When Atul and I started Masterclass Space, we pitched schools for a year and a half and nobody said yes. We kept going because we believed a good teacher can change the direction of a student’s life. I still work with students and families every week because I never want to lose touch with that.
