Youssef Assad — Founder
I’ve transformed from a software engineer into an EdTech entrepreneur on a mission to revolutionize how immigrants and international students prepare for language exams. After personally navigating the challenging and expensive process of immigration through language exams, I recognized a huge gap in the market: language exam prep is either too generic or too costly, leaving many stranded in a cycle of failure, frustration, and uncertainty. This realization sparked the creation of Passu, an AI + instructor-powered platform that makes language exam prep affordable, accurate, and personalized. As Founder & CEO, I’m leveraging my technical background in software development, my experience as an entrepreneur, and my own journey through the language exam system to build a platform that empowers learners, reduces costs, and speeds up exam preparation. Passu is already helping over 12,000 learners across the world — and we’re just getting started! My approach combines: → AI-driven adaptive learning that tailors feedback to individual learner needs → A deep understanding of immigration processes and language testing systems (IELTS, TOEFL, TCF) → A proven track record of building scalable technology and tackling real-world challenges → Insights into creating affordable, accessible solutions for underserved markets I’m passionate about: → Making language certification accessible and efficient for immigrants and international students → Leveraging AI to create scalable, personalized learning experiences → Building a platform that blends human expertise with the power of technology → Empowering learners to succeed in high-stakes exams and achieve their dreams My mission is clear: to ensure that language exams no longer hold people back from reaching their goals. Because when the prep is clear, the journey ahead becomes possible. Let’s connect if you’re interested in: → EdTech innovation and AI-driven learning solutions → Immigration and language exams → Building scalable educational platforms → EdTech partnerships and collaboration Currently expanding Passu's impact globally to help learners break through language exam barriers. Open to connecting with fellow innovators, educators, and potential partners who share our vision of making education accessible for everyone.
