My Academy started in 2005, and has grown to be one of Scandinavia's largest provider of professional home tutoring. Since the Company was founded, we have helped thousands of happy families. Today we have around 1500 tutors employed – located in, and around, the biggest cities of Sweden. We believe our success takes ground in our structured approach to tutoring, by using the My Academy Method - carefully selecting tutors - and helping students according to their individual needs. Helping your children with their homework, exam-preparations or study methods takes time and specific knowledge, which, for many families, can be hard to manage in the middle of a busy week! We have found that My Academy’s services make a big difference for these families. By always taking ground in the individual student’s needs and challenges - our home tutoring provides measurable results. Our goal is to always see a development.

Spira is Swedish and means to grow. This is what we want for you - the opportunity to grow your business, beyond your current stage and your current market, within or beyond the Swedish border. Spira is a consulting, advisory, networking and investment business specialized in globalization and growth. Founded in 2017, our three founders have vast experience in all phases of the expansion process. From defining MVP and taking the first trembling steps on the market, to large scale launches with dozens of countries in a day, and also in some cases to scaling back again when it didn’t go to plan. Between the three of us we have carried out more than 100 launches in over 70 markets. We know from experience that the most important type of advice is hard to come by - advice from people who have actually gone through it themselves, advice that is not a paper product. This is what Spira offers.
