How It Works

Three steps from classroom teacher to published edtech entrepreneur

Step 1

Learn

Weekly live sessions teaching Next.js & AI integration. We start from scratch — no prior coding experience needed. Think of it like lesson planning, but for software.

Step 2

Build

Create your own AI tutoring app with 1-on-1 mentorship. You decide what subject, what grade level, what makes your classroom magic — we help you code it.

Step 3

Launch

We list your finished app on Gumroad so you can start earning. Then we create your pitch deck and introduce you to education-focused VCs. Your second career starts here.

What You'll Build

A real AI tutoring app — designed by a teacher, powered by cutting-edge AI

Personalized Lesson Plans

AI generates custom lesson plans adapted to each student's learning pace and style — like having a teaching assistant that never sleeps.

Adaptive Quizzes

Smart quizzes that adjust difficulty in real-time. Students stay challenged without getting frustrated — the sweet spot every teacher knows matters.

Student Progress Tracking

Visual dashboards showing student growth over time. Identify who needs extra help and celebrate wins — all backed by real data.

Parent Dashboard

Give parents a window into their child's learning journey. Automated progress reports that save you hours of parent communication.

Built for Teachers, Not Developers

You don't need to know what an API is. You don't need a CS degree. You just need the thing every great teacher already has: the ability to break complex ideas into simple steps.

Teachers Who Took the Leap

Hear from educators who turned their classroom insights into real apps

“I went from googling 'what is HTML' to having my own math tutoring app on Gumroad in 8 weeks. My 3rd graders were my first beta testers — they loved it.”

MG
Maria Gonzalez
3rd Grade Teacher · Sunshine Elementary, Austin TX

“The VC pitch was the part I never could've done alone. ChalkVC set up three meetings with education investors. One of them is now advising me. This is surreal.”

JO
James Okafor
5th Grade Science Teacher · Lincoln Academy, Chicago IL

“I was terrified of coding. But they teach it the way I teach reading — one small step at a time. Now I have a side income from an app I actually built myself.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Not at all! We designed this bootcamp specifically for teachers with zero technical background. If you can write a lesson plan, you can learn to code. We start from the very basics and build up week by week, with plenty of support along the way.

Plan for about 8-10 hours per week: a 2-hour live session, plus practice time building your app. Most teachers fit it around their school schedule — evenings and weekends work great. All live sessions are recorded if you can't make one.

Life happens — especially for teachers! You get lifetime access to all materials and recordings. Plus your 1-on-1 mentor is there to help you catch up. We've never had a student who wanted to finish and couldn't.

100% yes. The app you build is entirely yours. You keep all revenue from Gumroad sales, and you own all the code. ChalkVC has no equity stake and no revenue share. We succeed when you succeed.

In the final weeks, we help you create a pitch deck tailored to your app and vision. Then we personally introduce you to education-focused VCs in our network. These are warm introductions — not cold emails. Whether you pursue funding is entirely up to you.

The best edtech will come from teachers.

You already know what students need. Let us help you build it, sell it, and fund it.
