Brooklyn-based edtech start-up Sawyer has raised $6 million in funding to develop Sawyer Tools, its software suite which enables educational programmes to schedule classes, communicate with parents and process payments. The company will also use funding to grow its business for offering online courses into new markets. Currently, Sawyer only offers the service in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Unlike similar services which require users to pay for membership, access to Sawyer's courses can be individually bought.
