Our Story

Ways Direct was born from a simple observation: the most meaningful learning happens when people come together around shared passions and learn from each other.

In 2022, our founders Sarah and Marcus were frustrated with the isolation of traditional online learning. They envisioned a platform where creators could build thriving educational communities, not just deliver content.

Today, we're proud to be home to thousands of communities where learners don't just consume content—they collaborate, compete, celebrate achievements, and form lasting connections that extend far beyond their courses.

"We're not just building an education platform—we're creating a new way for people to learn, grow, and connect with others who share their passions."
— Sarah Chen, CEO & Co-founder
