About us

OUR MISSION

We change the way education is organised, making it centralised, efficient, and simple.

MyStudyGenius is the brainchild of Benjamin Flum’s two passions: teaching and technology.
 
Benjamin experienced firsthand the challenges of traditional school administration as an international business teacher – the time-consuming processes, fluctuating demands, disconnected tools, reams of paperwork and little overview of operations. With the dream of simplifying and automating repetitive tasks that so often burden the management of schools, Benjamin teamed up with Caroline Santos, a designer and user experience mentor that believes in education as an empowerment tool.
 
Together, they shape what is MyStudyGenius today: A simple, cost-effective and flexible management tool to meet the demanding requirements of small to medium-sized private schools.
 
Based in the vibrant heart of Berlin, MyStudyGenius has already attracted attention from the German press and the start-up community. The tool has recently completed beta testing and is now reaching out to private schools, charitable organizations and other educational institutions.

We are educators that became entrepreneurs
