Really cool! A lot of parents had success putting their kids into a learning pod during COVID and it looks like you’re building formal structure around this type of thing.
I love that you’re working on it. If you can figure out how to make this work, the real power of the internet can be unleashed on education… and really just in the nick of time.
Some questions for you:
1. How do you choose the pods? What happens if the kids don’t like each other?
2. What depth is the coach supposed to be able to get into? Seems like a really hard job to context switch rapidly between topics when each kid is at a different place and doing something different.
3. What does the social component feel like? Are the kids mostly building comraderie around broader cultural topics as opposed to learning?
