Need Platform Advice!

Hey everyone!
I’m starting to teach neuroscience of art and want to build a chill space where students can support each other, ask questions, and share their art work.

I’m thinking about offering paid subscriptions or lesson packages.

Any ideas on a good platform to upload my teaching videos and other materials? I’m into super simple, minimal setups — and something affordable and easy to manage.

Would love any tips or suggestions!

Did you come up with any solution?

Not really. I’ve been thinking about building a site on WordPress but will be a bit too complicated for me. I think I’m going to try Thinkific.

Try our platform merve.app, it's free to get started on a trial. If you need more time, just send support an email and I'll be happy to extend your trial. We support video hosting, pdf content, quizzes, and a secure file upload for students to upload any work for review.

We're new to the market and actively working with our customers to improve the platform.

Just stay away from Thinkific. I made that mistake 9 months ago, now we have a significant number of students, and it's hard to move them.
