I like that you have free organization plans, but I think you need some sort of intermediate option for a classroom type environment and student groups. The ability to a teacher or TA pair program, or set up students to work in small groups on a semester long project would be awesome.
However A 12 week class with 30 students is 1.5k, if I am understanding how your plans work correctly, and I don't see that happening. Given that it's less likely to be always on programming when it's students and teachers, I think a significant deduction would be reasonable.
Alternatively, you could spin off a classroom focused version.
Maybe something that will need to wait for when you are more profitable, but if you get people used to your service as a student, they will carry it with them.
- kansface 13y agoI like this idea. We should support an educational option to get people onto the platform. While 1.5K to basically replace an office is a no-brainer, its far too much for students.
- disc 13y agoI think this use-case has a lot of potential. As someone who's past tutorials, yet not quite confident enough to seek employment with my hobby language, I'd love some small-group or individual pairing experience (sort of like golf or skiing lessons, only for programmers.) As long as the cost for facilitating this is reasonable, I wouldn't have a problem paying for it.
