Has anyone thought about learning online?

Hi there,

I'm a Spanish & English tutor on an online tutoring website. I'm wondering if there are any people interested in learning online here, and if so, have you done it before?

Do you learn online regularly? Do you find it effective?

Are you an online tutor? If so, where do you find new clients? So far I've just been using chalksy.com which has got me around 12 students, should I be using classifieds websites too?

Thanks in advance!

 

Have you tried to get enrolled as a tutor with http://www.i-to-i.com/ ? You can travel the world, have all kinds of fun, teach Spanish/English and make money in the process.

If teaching languages is your passion, why not join reputable organizations like http://www.i-to-i.com/ or http://www.teflonline.com ?

By the way you can still continue doing http://chalksy.com/ along with teaching Spanish or English all over the world.

 

i-to-i looks interesting, I'm definitely interested in travel.

The thing about the two websites you mentioned is that you are not working for yourself, to your own schedule. I'm interested in starting up my own online tutoring business (English/Spanish & maybe Web Design) in the future, so I need a company that allows me to work for myself and build up my own list of clients, such as the link I previously posted.

Cheers for the links!

 

I haven't heard of Chalksy. I just checked them out, and like them. I might take classes there someday. Right now I'm taking online classes on TutsPlus. It's only $19 a month, and you can take unlimited classes. Although, it's mainly just in graphic design, web development, etc.

 

Hi Rebecca,

Let me know if you're interested in Spanish/Web Design classes ! TutsPlus seems to be online content rather than live tutoring, but thanks for the suggestions!

 

TutsPlus is mainly video learning and a forum for each class. I'm studying graphic design, for that purpose it's perfect. I'll keep your Spanish tutoring in mind, as I only speak English. It would come in handy, especially where I am. There are lots of Spanish-speakers here! Anyway, have a nice day!!
