Who are we?

At Curiosity Learning, we're on a mission to change the way the world thinks about the education system. We believe that lifelong learning is essential, but the traditional education system isn't doing enough to create curious, engaged learners. We're here to shake things up.

Our goal is to create an environment where learners are motivated by their own curiosity and eager to explore new ideas. We believe that learning should be fun, collaborative, and driven by the interests of the learners themselves. With Curiosity Learning, we're committed to transforming the education system on a global level, and we're just getting started.

Our story began with a high school student who, like so many others, became disenchanted with the traditional education system. They knew that there had to be a better way to learn, and he started the first Curiosity Club, a space within their school where learners can learn anything they are curious about through collaborative projects. Today, we're supporting high school students across the Netherlands in starting and running their own Curiosity Clubs, and we're looking for talented and passionate individuals to join our team.

We're already operating in several communities around the world, but we need your help to continue this global transformation. We're looking for people who share our vision and are committed to making a difference. If you're ready to join us on this exciting journey, please send your resume and a short paragraph as to why you are interested to apply@curiositylearning.org.

We can't wait to hear from you!
