Pairing self-learners with mentors would be a nice feature.

I recently retrained in IT and had to complement/substitute school material with self-study sources found online (mix of books and video courses).

Instead of teachers, whose added value was approx. zero, I would have benefitted from mentors/sparring partners prepared to do code reviews, architecture feedback,...

Keep up the good work!

Unfortunately the supply of mentors is basically nonexistent while the demand is endless. Multiple sites have tried with little success. I know one that survived by charging for it and paying their mentors but it's still way below their regularly hourly rate while it quickly becomes expensive for the student.

A potential avenue would be for self-learners to act as mentor to other self-learners. With a reputation system à la stackoverflow, mentoring tasks could be made appealing.

Nice work, Collin and I agree: this would be an interesting feature.
