Perhaps more teachers, whether local or online remote on DEV, Khan Academy, Byju's, Udemy, SoloLearn etc. is not what is really needed or the best solution. Perhaps one should be seeking facilitators like Glitch.com, Amazon ECS, mentors, coaches and SOLEs (Self Organized Learning Environments guided by Big Questions). There are also commercial online experiential learning courses by companies like XTOL and Schank Academy.There are supervised course rooms with programmed checklists of tasks to be completed but they rely primarily on an obsolete teaching technology known as books. In 1921 H.G. Wells pointed out in Salvaging Civilisation, Chapter:7 College, Newspaper and Book, the plus points of books vs. lectures. Seek teaching geeks that can use technology rather than tech geeks that can teach.
