As CEO of Classroomy, I faced learning challenges from an early age, including being expelled from school for protesting an ineffective teaching method. This experience led me to become self-educated with the help of tutors around the world.

That’s when I noticed the difficulties teachers and students faced with the technical component of the lesson, when they were constantly switching between tabs, other services that took up part of the lesson, I noticed how difficult it was for teachers to engage and keep students’ attention, how difficult it was for them to virtually analyze students’ progress.

So I decided that my team and I would create a next-generation virtual classroom that would be both teacher-centered and student-centered. It would have all the tools teachers need to capture and hold students’ attention, and it would be accessible from anywhere in the world.
