 The class of 2025 interveiwed Chris Streeter the Co-Founder of Educreations. We learned so much about Chris, and we would like to share it with the world. Chris went to UC Berkley in California, and he graduated with a degree of computer science. His ideas for Educreations started while he worked at a company, and him and his friend wanted to do something more interesting. So that's when they made Educreations. Educreations is an app were you can create learning videos. He said computer programing is based on math, and it is like a different language. His sixth grade teacher inspired him to do his career. Khan academy inspired him to make Educreations. He made Educreations because teachers didn't have time to help students that needed help.
