How to make money online as a beginner
that you don't need to create a product or create anything until someone signs up for a lesson with you and when they have that lesson when they sign up for a lesson that's when you can start planning for it and you can do this on week-by-week basis so I really recommend starting with one-to-one lessons another reason as well is that you're going to learn a lot about your learners you know what struggles they have what problems they have now you might already have this experience if you're teaching or if you have experienced teaching in traditional settings in different countries but if you're first getting started you're going to learn so much by teaching one-to-one the next thing is doing group lessons and this is obviously where you have two or more students in the class now I experimented with group lessons in 2022 and it went really well I love the dynamic of an online group

lesson I use zoom to teach these students in the same class it's a really good platform for group lessons you can use Skype or Google Hangouts whatever platform you want to use but I really enjoyed the dynamic and additionally and it works like this you know if you have a one-to-one lesson where student pays you 30 you can get four where each student is paying you 15 and you'll leverage your time more and get more per hour by doing group lessons thing is the harder to get started because you have to get two or more learners who are willing to commit to a number of weeks at a similar time and they have to have

you know a similar level or at least fit you're an ideal student so is it harder to do new you'll probably have to have a larger audience to get group lessons another thing I want to mention is working asynchronously with your learner by offering different types of services so this might be writing feedback you know writing Corrections it could be speaking feedback now I've done both of these things for my learners and for example one student had a presentation and he uploaded his presentation to Google slides I think it's called and I went in there had a look at his notes had a look at his presentation and made changes and then he uploaded his presentation so he recorded a version as an mp3 file or he uploaded it to SoundCloud sorry and then I went into SoundCloud and made the corrections you know I left comments on his presentation now there are many ways you can do this with writing feedback

you know answering homework questions nything that you can do online now Google Drive is a great way to start people can upload their writing and then you can give feedback on this and other services too and this is really useful for people who can't really commit to a similar time every week and it's also a way for you to um outsource this work too so maybe you can bring in the work but then get of the people to do it for you so thinking about so think about you know what kind of services you can offer and how you can get this set upthe next thing we're going to talk about is selling products and my experience with this is selling an e-book so I sold a $10 eBook on my website I used cells

to sell it for me where I just uploaded the ad the e-book put my price and then put some code on my website copy and paste this code and it was as simple as that and I create some Facebook ads and it sold really well very very pleased with how it went and that was the first time I started to do something that wasn't one to one or group lessons it gave me the confidence to move forward you know I started quite small and then moved on from there so after you get experience and after you have taught so many lessons that you're doing the same thing over again then it's that time

when you can start thinking about making a product creating something that is a little bit more passive and again it's just so much easier to do these days once you have your product created you can use something like sales or Gumroad and then just copy and paste this code so selling a product is like moving on to a more passive way of making an income as an online teacher the next thing I want to talk about is courses and specifically video courses now my history of this is I created a course put it on a third party platform it did really well so then I took the content from that course and decided to put it on my own website and I did this because I wanted to first test it and create a course for your own website takes a lot of work there are plugins you have to use payment
processing to get started with and so many different things that you have to do when it designed the website too so I wanted to validate it I wanted to make sure that it was going to work before I did all that all that work for my website and it did you know it went well and then that's when I decided to put it on my own website so this is the to fluency program it's been live since November 2022 sales are going really well and that people love the course so I have actually transitioned away from one to one teaching and group lessons and I focus solely on this course and my future course is to again going back to group lessons and talking about having a big audience you will need a sizeabl audience and you know know how with marketing and web design or if you can get someone to do this for you to reach
your stage where this is going to be profitable but something that I always talk about is building you know building slowly and building up your audience using your email list to then reach a stage where you can sell something where you have a large enough student base where you can sell something to them so online course is a great thing to do and but it will take some time to get there the last thing I want to talk about is having affiliate links on your website or selling products that aren't yours now affiliate marketing works like this people have a certain product but they want other people to market this product for them so they say if you market this for me and someone buys it from your
website or wherever you post the link and I'll give you 50% of the sale and the percentage can vary it can be as low as you get 10% or you can get 75% or more so it really depends on on the product and the person who's selling this but this is something else to consider because if you don't want to build products if you don't want to build a course then you can sell other courses instead now I've done a little bit of affiliate marketing for this blog my teaching ESL online blog but I've not done any for my to fluency website the one for English learners and the reason is because I have my own product and it's what I want to focus on you know I want to focus on selling my own products
how to earn money from home
but I do know other teachers who sell different courses or promote different courses and receive an affiliate income from that so this is something else to think about and another way that you can earn as an online teacher so I hope that has been helpful for you and there are many ways to earn as an online teacher the key is to know that it's going to take time to sell things like products and courses and group lessons it's going to take a certain size of student base or your email list in order to make this work for you but the good thing is you can start with one two lessons build up
