Empowering Students. Unlocking Potential. Bridging the Gap Between School and Success.
Our Story
We launched EdVenture because we knew students deserved more than vague advice and last-minute panic about their future.
​
As high schoolers ourselves, we’ve seen too many students wait until it’s almost too late — scrambling to understand course planning, career paths, or college applications while under pressure. We realized the system doesn't offer early guidance, and most programs are either too generic, too expensive, or too disconnected from what students really need.
​
So, we built something different.
​
EdVenture started with one goal: to give students a head start on high school and beyond. We created a space where students can plan ahead, not play catch-up. We guide them through the realities of high school — from GPA and course rigor to college applications and testing — and then help them explore real career fields through online sessions led by students walking those paths themselves. Finally, we empower students to turn interests into action — through passion projects, leadership, and initiative — all before they’re forced to make decisions without direction.
​
This isn’t traditional tutoring. It’s a roadmap for the future, created by people actively walking it.
Meet The Team
Anushka Iyer
Hi, I’m Anushka, one of the founders of EdVenture! I’ve been tutoring for a few years now, starting with English lessons for neurodivergent students during the COVID-19 pandemic. More recently, I’ve been a partner with the Borderless World Foundation organization through a non-profit called Indians for Collective Action, where I teach students in orphanages at the Kashmir conflict zone—a humbling experience that’s shown me the importance of personalized learning and patience. I know that every student learns differently, and I tailor my approach to meet their unique needs. Whether it’s helping with writing, public speaking, or building confidence, I’m here to support your child in a way that makes sense for them. In addition to tutoring, I’m actively involved in speech and debate. It’s a great way for me to explore current issues, sharpen my critical thinking, and develop strong public speaking skills. Besides this, I’ve been an Indian classical dancer for the past 9 years, and have learned discipline, dedication, and the value of hard work through the process. We’re here to make sure you don’t have to go through the same struggles we did. Welcome to a tutoring experience that’s for students, by students.
Krishay Madhav
Hi, I’m Krishay, one of the founders of EdVenture, an organization dedicated to empowering students through mentorship and skill-building. As the founder of Almaden Chess Club, I’m a passionate chess enthusiast working to make chess accessible to all while fostering strategic thinking and building community. I’ve organized tournaments and taught players from diverse backgrounds, helping them grow through the game. In addition, I actively compete in Public Forum Debate, where I thrive on engaging in thoughtful discussions and sharpening my argumentation skills. My involvement in Mock Trial allows me to apply analytical thinking in courtroom scenarios, deepening my understanding of law and advocacy. Outside these pursuits, I enjoy baking and spending time with my dog. At EdVenture, we’re committed to helping students gain confidence, master time management, and develop clear communication skills. With the right support, we believe every student can excel both academically and personally.
