Join​ startup with a small team, good chemistry, unusual pay, and a bold mission to educate Earth.

It’s called Skool — ​We’re building a social learning network where people can join niche communities, learn things, solve problems, make friends, and have fun. We don’t see our platform as ​“the thing”​. It's the thing that gets you to the thing — finding purpose and human connection in the real world.
 

We believe — ​education should be lifelong, fun, done with friends, personalized, accessible to everyone, and emerge naturally from p2p interactions, not static textbooks with a teacher in a room.
