About Life School

• Life School's mission is to make life better, one new skill at a time.
• We do this by producing short "TLDR-style" guides on life skills (e.g., Cooking, Cleaning, Personal Finance, Home Maintenance, Gardening).
• Lessons are heavily researched, vetted by industry-leading pros & presented in a standardized, bullet point-based style, approximately 500 words each. We audio record lessons & add videos where helpful.

• Life School recently raised a pre-seed round from Precursor Ventures, Craft Ventures, Quiet Capital, Jason Tan, and a few angels.
