Masterclass

Classes taught by celebrities. That’s what Masterclass does and I recommend you look at.

At first you might gasp that celebrities can’t possibly teach something useful because they know nothing.

But if the celebrity is Frank Gehry teaching arcthitecture, Kevin Spacey on acting and, yes sorry to inform you, the ever present Gordon Ramsay teaching cooking and how to say f***.

This service is going to grow to be big.

Being taught by someone you have heard of and know to be an expert is engaging even for those normally put off by video class learning.

The price is cheap. $20 for 10 video lessons.

The video production quality is excellent.

Question is who will be the celebrity to teach psychology (Freud is dead) or to teach marketing (Mad Men)?
