More about me:
I am working on starting up a company that will bring high level learning to everyone. Imagine a site where you can purchase a college book, and take lectures online from a number of different instructors.
Or you as a working professional or instructor, can contribute back to students by preparing lessons - uploading them and getting paid for each download. Become an online teacher in your spare time.
After being a student for many years, I know the frustration of trying to learn from come instructors. Being an authority on a subject, does not mean you can present it well. I want to open the door to good teachers. Allow students that may be having a hard time with one instructor, take the same lesson from one they understand. Sure there are colleges that post some class lectures online, but first of all they are only available through that college site, and second they are only from college professors.
I want to open up the gap, consolidate this knowledge, and allow those outside the college realm to make a buisness out of being a good instructor.
