About

Teachers who build.
Developers who teach.

Smart Learning is a team of teacher-developers. We make the tools we wish we had in our own classrooms — and we keep teaching while we build.

Our founder’s vision is to make teachers’ dreams come true by building magical educational things to learn and interact better.

At a glance

A short, honest picture of who we are. We list only what we can stand behind — not a wall of invented figures.

Teacher-developers

We are a team of teacher-developers: people who teach, and who also design and build the learning experiences.

Still in the classroom

Our founder is still actively teaching. The work is meant to serve real lessons, not only a demo reel.

20+ years of practice

Carlos-Alberto Aldana-Sánchez brings more than twenty years of experience in development and teaching.

Three doors into the work

Visitors enter through Smart Learning Academy, Smart Teacher Center, or Smart App Development — each with its own page.

Smart Learning has worked directly and indirectly with institutions across Latin America and the US.

  • ADEN Business School

Institution names are shown as text, not as logos. This list is limited to organizations Carlos has named; it is not a claim of endorsement.

Our story

Smart Learning was founded by Carlos-Alberto Aldana-Sánchez, a developer and teacher who still teaches. He is also the founder of LinguaVirtual and of Yes! Better Together.

The through-line is simple: teachers who know the classroom, and developers who can make what the classroom actually needs. We build educational software and learning experiences — notebooks, games, courses, and the paths around them — and we test ideas in real teaching, not only on paper.

We are not publishing a longer timeline of dates and chapters than we can stand behind. If a fuller history should live here, it will be added when we have it in Carlos’s own words.

Vision

Make teachers’ dreams come true.

By building magical educational things to learn and interact better.

That is the founder’s vision for Smart Learning. In our everyday language: building the future of learning, and making the tools we wish we had in our own classrooms.
