On the record
Bio

Anita MacDonald, a former opera singer and pianist, aimed to provide a safe and state-of-the-art solution for sophisticated online music lessons. She spearheaded the development of Meteor Tutors, an EdTech solution that provides a secure online space for students and tutors to meet online across countries via the web or mobile app.

MacDonald, a multiple prizewinning pianist at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and qualified Secondary Headteacher, scaled global online tuition by matching qualified and vetted tutors with clients on the secure 2 factor ID site, with facial and fingerprint technology lessons. Students and tutors benefit from automated engagement and payment services for ease of use.

Now she provides the solution for employee training and seminars with Meteor Fireball.

  • MacDonald about her tech entrepreneurship:

    “It was like the natural next step. I was always into technology, and so are my kids with my daughter studying computer science, and my son being Head of IT.

    My path to entrepreneurship feeds from my extensive experience in education and in life, leading to a no-compromise approach to education in virtual spaces.”

  • “In addition to the highest quality standards I seek for music education, the safety of our students was of utmost importance. Virtual spaces carry threats like zoom bombings. The strong security features we have built in for children and teenagers are now also available to corporations who want to distribute sensitive information around the world,” MacDonald says.
