This post seems to make lots of sense. I think going into the education market, you must feel at least some passion for doing something good, leaving a mark, making a difference (however small). I would even go as far as saying that making lots of money from education is some kind of a contradiction in terms. Good teachers and educators don't usually make a fortune, but they make a difference. I think that's why VC and education do not go well together. If you plan to make an exit, then you're not really there to support the next generation of people who want to learn. You're not a teacher or educator if you're there only to make the jump up to the next thing. In that sense, the idea of passionate angels, and small startups that can find a niche and build a sustainable business out of it makes a lot of sense. It might not make you a millionaire, or won't disrupt the entire education market, but it should hopefully make you proud and help even a few people improve their learning experience. disclaimer: my startup kenhub.com tries to build a (small) platform to make learning anatomy more easy and fun.
