What this template makes
This template renders a woman in her forties standing in a quiet classroom after the last bell, desks behind her and a whiteboard with no readable writing. She speaks to the camera about the years of teaching that led her to build the course.
A founder line carries weight when it names real experience. Replace the ten years of teaching with your own background, whether that is a trade, a degree or time working in the field, and keep the second line to one design decision about the course.
Choosing a short lesson length as that decision gives the viewer a reason that sounds practical. Swap it for anything true about your product, and end on an invitation to try the first lesson.
Learners buy from people they believe have done the work. A founder in a recognizable setting, like a classroom, signals experience before a single credential is listed. One design decision explained in plain words makes the course feel considered.

The exact prompt

Vertical 9:16 handheld UGC video filmed on a phone, soft late-afternoon light. A woman in her mid 40s with shoulder-length auburn hair, wearing a green blouse and a thin gold necklace, stands in an empty classroom after the school day with rows of wooden desks and a large whiteboard with no readable marks behind her. She rests one hand on a desk chair, looks into the camera with a warm, steady expression, and gestures a small circle with her free hand as she talks. Golden sunlight streams through tall windows on the left, gentle natural handheld movement, shallow depth of field. She speaks in a warm, measured voice: "I taught for ten years before building this course. Every lesson is ten minutes, because that is what students finish. Come try lesson one." Native audio with her voice and a faint echo of the room. No logos, no brand names and no printed text anywhere, and the whiteboard has no writing. No on-screen text, no captions, no watermarks. Realistic hands with five fingers, natural face, authentic founder video style.
