Who we are.

Our Impact

At Educate, our innovation & transformation coaches help teachers become more self-aware of their identity and beliefs around student learning.

We customize our approach based on your school’s specific needs and work regularly with teachers at the point of instruction. Our coaches continuously support leaders to implement pedagogical practices schoolwide that promote access and equity.

Educate - Our Story

Our Story

Founding partners Frank Hardart and Robert Flanigan didn’t set out to start a company—they just wanted to give students the best education they could get.

Frank worked at a kid-centered dot-com, Bob was an investment banker, and they both sat on an advisory board for inner-city Catholic schools. Aiming to uplift struggling schools, they noted that while classrooms were equipped with expensive technology, teachers weren’t equipped to use it.
