Competitors include agencies that are still focused on offline education such as Transitions Abroad, Smapse and Academic Families.Alexander Zheltov, co-founder and CEO of Educate Online, said: “Educate Online was founded in 2018 and since then has placed more than 4,000+ children between the ages of 4-19 in top schools.
