Khan Academy, couldn’t have asked for a better ambassador than Bill Gates – someone who has touted it as the “future of education”. Salman “Sal” Khan, who started to post video tutorials trying to help his nephews and nieces with their Math and Science studies has found a global audience who love his fluid and easy to understand style of teaching.
He has now amassed an amazingly talented group of people who are taking his efforts to mainstream classrooms and around the world – establishing a truly global school. But it still came as a surprise that the #3 guy of Google – Craig Silverstein, left Google today to join Khan Academy.
The best of education brought to you by a group of extremely talented people at your leisure for free of cost. I am excited at the prospect of what Khan Academy can achieve.
