Now imagine if you didn’t just use a LLM wrapper but rather an AI designed with learning science embedded at every level 🤯
Ethan Mollick@emollick
AI really can help education: Randomized controlled experiment on high school students found a GPT-4o powered tutor that personalized problems for students raised final test scores by .15 SD, "equivalent to as much as six to nine months of additional schooling by some estimates"

One GT Anywhere parent..."My kids are mastering material 3 times faster than their peers. The platform is gifting them years of childhood back."
Free, from home, covered by TEFA. Great time to be the parent of a bright 3rd–8th grader.
Austen Allred@Austen
I moved to Austin in part so that my kids could go to Alpha School (despite tuition being $40k/year/kid). Now kids in Texas get the exact same academics for free, even from home, with GT School Anywhere.

@rhettjoneslore @jliemandt Rhett, I run GT and spent years on a similar path, starting with malaria programs in Africa. DM me if you want to brainstorm plans!

@jliemandt is literally *the* reason I actually have ambition in life.

Can't wait for more kids to take part in our competition lab! Where the best and brightest earn their stripes.

Yesterday I was honored to witness the ribbon cutting for GT School's new Competition Lab - basically the container for the future of competitive academics at GT School. Students earn the privilege of participating in Competition Lab by meeting their daily XP goals on Timeback and staying up to speed on their standard afternoon workshops. We will provision eligible students with time, materials, and support to achieve new heights in their specialties: math, robotics/engineering, creative writing, quiz bowl, etc. But we can't do it for them, and we won't let them coast. Competition Lab's GM, guide Matt Starolis, challenged our kids to formally sign the Competition Lab pledge and initiate their responsibilities as members. That's my daughter, Claudia (age 10), accepting. She heads to quiz bowl nationals in Chicago in May, and she meets her new writing coach on Thursday.

@gtmom The Competition Lab is such an amazing place for GT kids!

In a few years we’re going to realise how we’ve been dramatically underestimating what kids and teens are capable of, and how much our education system has been holding them back
liemandt@jliemandt
@ByrneHobart Prediction: Within a couple of years, your child will be learning from an app built by an Alpha School student. Related: SaaS market is doomed. I’m watching my $100m+ investment in Timeback be disrupted by the students.

@nateliason @CameronSorsby @AlphaSchoolATX That’s awesome! We are totally going to steal *ahem* borrow your stuff for GT middle school!
English
I started my first job in a decade.
Last fall, @CameronSorsby reached out to ask if I could do a workshop at @AlphaSchoolATX on vibe coding.
I had a blast, and was blown away by how sharp and entrepreneurial the students were.
Cameron and I kept talking, discussing his plans to expand Alpha’s entrepreneurial and AI education, and the more we talked the more I realized I had to be a part of it.
This week I officially joined as the “Head of Founder Development.”
I’m working on expanding the high school’s AI and entrepreneurship curriculum, along with a much bigger project for the Fall I’ll be able to share soon.
With young kids of my own and my deep frustration with the education system, @jliemandt and Alpha’s mission is one I’m extremely passionate about and thrilled to be a part of.
If anyone is going to fix education, it’s us.
Can’t wait to share more on what we’re building.

@clharrington024 Imagine what he could do if he could do that across all subjects!

My third grade son is in a gifted class but still finishes early every week. Now, when he finishes he goes on Mart Academy and he’s halfway done with 4th grade math in around two weeks.
If your child is at public school you can still absolutely ask that the teacher have them use Math Academy if they finish early.
Justin Skycak@justinskycak
There is no reason why a grade level's worth of learning has to take a year. Kids can master the material so much faster, and climb so much higher, if you give them individualized instruction up the skill tree and avoid wasting their time.
English
So obvious, but exactly the opposite of the experience for most bright motivated kids today.
Justin Skycak@justinskycak
What is the single most efficient use of a student's time right at this moment? Have them do that. Because to do otherwise is to hold them back from achieving their fullest potential.

Everest, an 11-year-old Alpha GT School student, is being interviewed by CBS, NBC, CNN, Fox, and others. Hundreds of articles and counting.
Meanwhile, every Alpha School student today: "Can we have extra time in our public speaking workshop?"
Office of the First Lady@FirstLadyOffice
Everest Nevraumont is a 11-year-old student at the Alpha School, which is based in Austin, Texas. Everest participates in AI-powered, personalized learning through her school. She is a public speaker, AI-education advocate, three-time Texas State Champion in History, and was on a winning International History Bowl team. She also delivered a TedX speech about how she uses AI in her education. 2026 State of the Union

All of us at @gtschool are so proud of Everest!
liemandt@jliemandt
From an anonymous Substack review to the floor of the U.S. Capitol in a matter of months. @Ednever wrote the viral Alpha School review. His 10-year-old daughter Everest - three-time Texas state history champion and TEDx speaker - will be the First Lady's guest at tonight's State of the Union. This is what happens when Alpha School founding families go all-in on transforming education. 🔥

What happened in other states when ESAs went online is nothing compared to what’s about to happen in Texas
Austen Allred@Austen
By the way if you have kids in Texas they can enroll in the remote version of what is described in this post (GT School Anywhere) for free with the new TEFA vouchers. Academic outcomes that crush any private school. For free. Luckiest kids in the world. anywhere.gt.school

This app blew me away. Made by a writer for writers. 10 years old, shipping real things. At GT, we're not raising kids who use AI to avoid work. We're raising kids who build with it.

@Tylergroce @ben_m_somers Hey!👋🏾 founder of GT anywhere here. Sounds like we might be a great fit! Feel free to reach out with any questions.
English
Hey Ben,
I’m dabbled around on your site several times and I end up just kind of getting lost with all the options.
Is there a curated curriculum that y’all suggest or recommend or it’s just totally ad hoc and whatever they do or don’t want to do is game?
We homeschool now are heavily considering GT anywhere from Alpha, and really curious.
English
I'm going to publish our standardized test results soon
Pretty excited about it. We will compare our results Head to Head against Alpha School's.
The AI labs are hotly competing on benchmarks, and I can't wait to bring this energy to Education.
English
@Autonomic443 @Austen Not for testing, but we have (optional, but highly encouraged) weekend intensives in Georgetown to go deeper in the sciences and humanities!
And only limit is the number of bright, motivated kids!
English
@arvindnaga @Austen Thank you for the response. I do have a couple of questions.
With remote schooling, will we ever have to go to a physical location for any kind of testing?
Will you be limiting the total number of students enrolled in the online school?

@arvindnaga I wish GT Anywhere had the option to enroll for "Pre-K". My "Pre-K" son is in 2nd-grade math and reading.
English
A lot of folks in this situation signing up for GT Anywhere just for the acceleration and the community. They know school is holding their kid back, but not looking for virtual. (Well come to you with physical campuses soon enough!)
kikicarmine@kikicarmike
@Austen Are there products for tutoring? My son loves his school but I’m afraid the academics are lacking.
