About Funclass
Funclass was born from co-founder Yan’s six years of experience teaching English online, where she faced a common challenge: keeping learners engaged through a screen.
Determined to find a better way, she teamed up with Viana, a skilled developer with business insight, and Crystal, a pedagogy expert with 20+ years of experience and deep ties to the global tutoring industry. Together, they built a platform designed to solve what other tools couldn’t.
Through research and outreach, the team uncovered a clear need: online educators were frustrated with corporate tools that failed to engage students aged 4–15. These tutors needed a purpose-built solution to improve focus, streamline their operations, and grow their businesses.
Funclass is that solution — a Zoom app that upgrades online learning for tutors and academies alike.
It builds on Zoom’s trusted environment and adds powerful layers: gamified features like points, leaderboards, and custom avatars to boost engagement, plus all-in-one tools for scheduling, student tracking, and business growth.
At its core, Funclass uses gamification to transform screen time into meaningful learning — encouraging participation, motivation, and progress inside and outside the classroom.
Less admin. More impact. Smarter growth.
Funclass isn’t just a Zoom upgrade — it’s the future of live online education.
