History
Ayman Sadiq founded 10 Minute School in mid-2014 as a YouTube channel.[4][5][6] Largely self-sponsored in the beginning, 10 Minute School did not initially have a website and solely reached students through educational infographics.[7] It started creating video tutorials for Mathematics and English and eventually started taking live classes on Facebook.[8] 10 Minute School went on to cover the entire academic syllabus from Class 1 to Class 12, university admission subjects covering topics from public and private university examinations and extensive software and skills training.[6]
While one of the significant challenges for an organization back then was to find a suitable sponsor to found its operational activities, it later came to be supported by telecom operator Robi Axiata Limited and the ICT Division.[9]
In January 2022, 10 Minute School raised $2m seed fund from reputed Sequoia Capital. [10]
