Teachers already have a platform they can use to achieve Khan-like fame. Its called youtube and its the same thing that Khan used.

The author comes across as jealous and petty. His mentality is pretty much the polar opposite of the average HN reader. Instead of solving a problem or building a product he would rather complain about how he could do a better job but won't.

I understand that the author was being petty, but I do believe that he almost stumbled across a good solution in the article and missed it. I was pointing out that with a little more thought on the part of the author, a platform could be developed to help deal with the need to identify good education with application to a broad amount of people.
