Recently got the slice cc and made some purchases. However, I am unable to link this to any bill payment system. How are you all paying your slice cc bills? Even a 1% cashback on this bill would help me save a lot. Thanks!
Over the past few months, I started experimenting with something on the side. I worked on creating structured learning content for students from Grades 2–8 focusing solely on conceptual clarity.
I’m trying to realistically understand whether this is worth pursuing seriously over the next few years or whether I’m underestimating how difficult/scalable this space is.
The niche is mainly Maths, Science, and Logical reasoning.
What I’m currently offering:
Live/Recorded conceptual lectures
Topic wise mock tests/worksheets
Doubt support over chat
Occasional live doubt clearing sessions
USP is my teaching approach that aims to break down difficult concepts through real-life examples, illustrations, and animations followed by high quality questions much different than the conventional ones. The interesting part is that parents are willing to pay for the value I'm providing and want to be associated for long term. Additionally, the feedback from parents for recorded content has actually been pretty positive.
This made me feel there may actually be demand for high-quality early-stage learning that is not hyper-commercialized like large edtech platforms.
But I’m confused whether this is a genuine scalable opportunity or just early positive validation from a small sample size
A few things I’m struggling with:
Scalability: Should I continue building recorded-first content with doubt support? Or move toward live cohorts only?
Marketsize: Is there actually a strong market for Grades 2–8 wrt what I'm trying to build?
Customer acquisition: Most parents seem interested only after seeing sample teaching quality over a period. How do small education creators scale trust initially?
Time constraints: The main issue. I can only devote 2-3 hours on a daily basis, but only if it makes sense. Otherwise, I'd like to invest my time into something more productive
I don’t currently have a large budget/team.
Would a “high-quality teacher + personalized support” model actually stand out today?
Long-term direction. If this works, should the focus eventually become:
An app/platform
YouTube-led growth
WhatsApp/community-led learning
Small premium cohorts
Would genuinely appreciate advice from anyone who has built/scaled businesses, preferably edtech.
Bought both from kalyan jewellers yesterday:
Nath 9.8 grams 22kt gold bought at 1.54L
Earring 8.4 grams, 22kt gold + ruby and emerald bought for 1.55L
Paid using slice so will get around 15k as cashback on the purchase
Side note: My grandparents took all the wedding jewelry from my mom post her marriage and distributed them to their daughters as a gift and sold the remaining. Whatever small ornaments my mom had accumulated, she sold them to sponsor my education, so this is just a small attempt to reignite her desires for gold. Had gifted her bangles from tanishq last year, but the making charges were sky high. I came to know about gold stacking and a lot more from this community, so thanks a lot to all of you as well for making this possible ❤️
I have also enrolled for the membership from Kalyan which promises 0 making charges upto 18% ig. If it works out well will make all future purchases through the same scheme as it helps save a lot on making charges
Note: It is for new users only, and cashback will be credited in BB Wallet
Minimum order value: 200
I am currently working on a 1-1 online mentoring solution(D2C) focusing on students studying in grades 4 to 8. Key highlights are as follows:
Ensuring conceptual clarity
Covering school + competitive exam syllabus
High-quality practice questions and mock test
1:1 feedback
I currently have 6 students whom I'm mentoring personally. In total, over a span of 1 year, I have received around 28 enquiries. All the clients I got were organic and stay for long term so I have confidence that I'd be able to scale it. One of the reasons I have very low number is the time constraint because of which I get on and off this idea. I believe its time for me to get some helping hands and see how it goes. I want to engage with people who are in this industry to get some insights on how can I scale this. In case someone has a passion to teach, they are more than welcome to share their opinion.
Feel free to ask for any detail I may have missed.
Thanks much!
