Lifelong Learning? What About Lifelong Teaching? If You Agree, Then Educator Is Coming to You


I’ve met so many remarkable people over the years—especially those who’ve reached what society often calls “elderly.” But I’m telling you, sixty really is the new thirty. These individuals are full of energy, sharp minds, and a passion for life that would put many younger folks to shame.

Now, imagine what it’s like when you add decades of teaching experience to that mix. I’ve known many seasoned educators who bring their deep well of knowledge and creative spark to every lesson. And it's not just them—there’s also a wave of young Ph.D.s and experienced teachers from universities, institutes, and colleges who, for various reasons (like the ongoing war, for instance), have been pulled away from the classrooms they love.

And let’s not forget the coaches and instructors who seem to be everywhere these days, sharing their expertise. I admire their passion for spreading knowledge. But I’m here to talk about something different.

I know, I know—the topic of online courses might feel a little overdone by now. With giants like Coursera and Udemy in the game, it can seem like the market is saturated. But here in Kyiv, we’re working on something unique: the Educator platform.

Educator is a new marketplace dedicated to teachers—not coaches, not influencers, not self-styled "experts"—but real, experienced educators. It’s a commercial project, yes, but with a twist. Unlike most platforms, Educator offers 80% of the course revenue to the teachers. That's right, we believe in rewarding those who truly deserve it—the teachers themselves.

The platform is designed specifically for current and former teachers from universities, institutes, and colleges. We want to give these educators a stage to share their expertise, connect with lifelong learners, and teach in a way that fits the evolving demands of today’s world.

So, if you’re a teacher—or you know someone who is—stay tuned. We’re hoping to launch Educator around the New Year (or maybe even sooner!).

Follow our announcements, and let’s keep the spirit of lifelong teaching alive. Because teaching is not just a profession; it’s a lifelong commitment to shaping the future. And now, more than ever, the world needs what you have to offer.
