What I Learned In Computer Lab


 Today, in Computer Lab, I learned about the man who created Khan Academy. Khan started out in a closet at the back of his bedroom, making videos to tutor his cousins. As he made more videos, more people began to watch them and learn from his lessons, and soon he became very popular. Khan eventually became so popular, that the children of Bill Gates were learning from him! Bill Gates himself called Khan and invited him over for lunch and sent his personal jet to pick Khan up. The two talked over lunch, and Bill offered Khan a few million dollars to hire people and begin a business. Khan is now a very successful man and runs his own business that started in a tiny closet in his room, I am amazed at how far Khan got with his career.
