Origins
How Agora came to be.
Named after the ancient Greek gathering places where ideas were exchanged and decisions shaped societies, Agora continues this tradition — creating spaces where learning happens through conversation, rigorous feedback, and writing.
Our Vision
Students who can articulate complex ideas in simple language, who write to think rather than to impress, and who understand that intellectual depth matters more than strategic positioning.
Our Approach
Writing sits at the center. Clear writing reveals clear thinking — it’s how chaotic thoughts become coherent arguments, how memorization transforms into understanding. We don’t teach students what to think; we teach them how to think, using writing as the primary tool for intellectual development.
Our Commitment
Every program we build prioritizes intellectual honesty over admissions optimization. We treat students as serious thinkers, not test-takers — because that’s what rigorous education demands.
