EdTerm revolutionizes learning by offering AI-driven mentorship and real-world wisdom from lived experiences.
In a world where traditional education often prioritizes theoretical knowledge over practical, lived experiences, EdTerm is bringing real-world wisdom into the heart of lifelong learning. Through AI-driven mentorship and the valuable lessons learned from diverse individuals, EdTerm is rethinking education by emphasizing hands-on learning and authentic insights.
Empowering Learners Through Real-World Wisdom
At its core, EdTerm is grounded in a powerful idea: learning isn’t just about memorizing facts, but about understanding real-world challenges, overcoming obstacles, and growing through experiences. This vision is led by Cameron Covarrubias, the founder of EdTerm. Cameron, a high school dropout, faced an educational system that didn’t understand his potential. Rather than being discouraged, he set out to create a platform that empowers others to learn from the wisdom of professionals and individuals who’ve navigated their unique paths.
“I’m building AI that learns from humans so humans can learn from AI,” Cameron explains. With this mission, EdTerm seeks to preserve and share life lessons, making them accessible to a new generation of learners.
A New Kind of Learning: Beyond Theories to Actionable Insights
Traditional education often focuses on textbook knowledge, which is essential but doesn’t always equip individuals with the practical skills needed to navigate today’s complex world. EdTerm aims to bridge this gap by offering actionable guidance rooted in real-life experiences.
Through the platform’s Human Wisdom Database, learners gain access to the stories of individuals who have faced personal struggles, career setbacks, triumphs, and transformations. These firsthand accounts provide practical insights that textbooks often overlook, offering a more holistic approach to learning.
EdTerm ensures that its learners are not confined to hypothetical case studies but can instead access insights grounded in reality, mentorship without the barriers of geography, status, or access to networks.
Tero: The AI Mentor With a Human Touch
One key aspect of EdTerm’s approach is its AI-driven mentor, Tero. Tero is designed to help learners navigate personal and professional challenges by offering advice grounded in the wisdom shared by individuals in the Human Wisdom Database.
Tero is more than an algorithm, it’s a platform designed with empathy in mind, offering personalized guidance that supports emotional and personal growth. Whether helping users with career decisions, mental resilience, or finding new inspirations, Tero uses practical wisdom to guide learners in real, meaningful ways.
Bridging the Gap: Collaboration with Universities
EdTerm is partnering with leading universities across Southeast Asia to build the world’s first regional wisdom archives—research-driven collections of lived experience that preserve cultural knowledge, guide students with real-world insight, and unlock entirely new frontiers in lifelong learning. By capturing the stories, lessons, and career wisdom of alumni, elders, and local professionals, universities can strengthen their research capabilities, enhance student mentorship, elevate their global academic positioning, and protect valuable institutional memory that would otherwise be lost. Together, we’re proving that experiential wisdom is just as essential as formal education—and that universities have a historic opportunity to lead this shift.
More Than Education: A Community for Growth
EdTerm is not only about education, it’s about creating a supportive community of learners. The platform encourages users to share their own personal stories and insights, contributing to the growing wisdom database. This sense of community promotes lifelong learning, not just through skill-building but also through evolving as individuals.
Empathy and human connection are at the heart of EdTerm. Each learner can relate to the struggles and successes of others, creating a space where learning and personal growth go hand-in-hand.
A Vision for the Future
EdTerm is more than an educational tool; it’s a new way of thinking about learning. By recognizing the value of lived experiences and using AI to enhance mentorship, EdTerm is shaping the future of education in a more personal, transformative direction.
Cameron Covarrubias’s vision is clear: the future of education isn’t just about memorizing facts or earning degrees; it’s about understanding the world through the lived wisdom of those who have experienced it firsthand.
As EdTerm continues to grow, it is clear that this platform will play a pivotal role in redefining what it means to learn in the 21st century. With its emphasis on empathy, mentorship, and practical wisdom, EdTerm is setting new standards for lifelong learning.
