Forming your own Online Teaching Business

Starting out is probably one of the biggest hurdles to overcome when forming your own teaching business online. To get yourself up and running without any students from the ground means that you are going to have to play the social media game for a while. Using apps like LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube to advertise your services and what you do. While you can start your own business whenever you want it is advisable that you try to start with a company as a medium so that you can build up some video recordings and other things in order to show what you can offer to students. 

When you have started to get students from advertising you should always have some sort of a contract signed by both parties as well as a list of details of the services that you are providing to them. The terms should also include the general teaching hours that you will have with them for each session (but you can change these based on your students’ needs if necessary) and try to always stay consistent with your times and sessions with them. You can also charge monthly or by each session, but that is a choice totally up to each teacher. You will also need to pick your fee that you charge for your services, and it is highly recommended that you look into other teachers and their services to see the general market price for teaching online.

Once you have students signed up and attending your classes the most important next step to do is to make sure you are keeping your students by having quality and fun lessons. This is always the hardest part for a lot of teachers, because it is hard to always have both quality and fun lessons, especially in online classes.
