About GEO

We started GEO because the mathematics of good teaching were broken.

The best education on earth is one adult, one child — and almost no family on earth can buy it. Artificial intelligence changed the mathematics. We are building the school that proves it, and we intend to be examined on every claim we make.

The entity and our standards.

Global Educational Organization is an independent private online school. Delaware, USA corporation; school registered in Florida under Florida Statutes § 1002.01(3). Designed to Cognia standards — the accreditor of tens of thousands of schools worldwide. Our promise: our words always match our stage.

A long-held interest in education and learning led him to extensive self-study in pedagogy and learning theory. As CEO, Mohamed owns strategy, fundraising and finance, go-to-market and partnerships, and curriculum direction.
