First a bit of criticism - I don't like this way of presenting. 193 slides? Each with one sentence? This is borderline maddening and if this wasn't a topic I was interested in I wouldn't have made it even 30 slides in. A tl:dr would just tell you to skip to slide 160.

Not only that but the parts about Skillshare itself are so disguised that I still don't have a firm grasp of why should I go there and what can I do there besides "learn" (I can just google a cupcake recipe, why should I learn through you?).

Now about the content itself - as someone from outside of the US, I'm amazed and frightened at this phenomenon. There were similar threads on reddit with people with over 200,000$ of debt. This is irrational and borderline irresponsible to owe someone so much money. I think education should be reconsidered and a better method tried. With the internet and the wealth of information on it, I find it hard to believe we can't optimize and improve upon the current education structures.

Edit: After exploring the site, I think I really like it. I'd probably like it more if I lived in NY, where most of the classes take place :) I think this idea is great and worth expanding,

I think, since your site is fairly young, it will benefit a user voice page, since I can think of tonnes of things I'd like to see there.

I agree. I regularly flag links to slide share. Life is too short for clicking 190 times to get through at most a page of text and a bunch of pictures.

I also upvote any and all comments within such posts that supply the content in a more readable format.

I actually presented all 193 slides in less than 15 minutes. The format was a huge hit with the audience.

I liked every single of my clicks.

3 minutes have 180 seconds in them.

The point is it goes kind of fast.

I went through the slides and every one had content worth reading. The flow of it was good too.
