How many years of teaching experience do you think is necessary before you start an educational platform?

I have 0 experience in teaching, never created a product focussed on education, and schools are paying me to use my product in their class.

I know nothing of your product, so this isn't a shot against you personally, but there are plenty of products schools are paying for that provide little value and a handful of them that are providing negative value.

You've reached the first step in the process, getting into schools. The next step is show value in outcomes rather than just another grift.

The original point I was trying to make is that you don't need to be an experienced teacher to create a useful educational product.

Like I said, my product is not really made for schools, and it's also not my main focus. But plenty of teachers and students seem to get value out of it. I just have to trust their word on that of course.

Calling someone arrogant because they want to create an educational product with only 2 years of experience is really weird for me.

You don't need any experience. You don't even need a quality competitive product. You just need a landing page and marketing to administrators. Even better if you have connections to school boards.

Maybe they're orthogonal. The trick is making the two work together.
