Hi Everyone,

I'm an online English Teacher - looking for fellow teachers and students. I'm interested in your experiences teaching online and look forward to any discussion we can have about doing so.

Hi! Thanks for your responses. Just wondering your thoughts on what you would do differently looking back on when you started teaching online in terms of getting new students. What method was most effective? What method didn't seem to work at all? Thanks!

I had an experience of teaching via Skype. It was quite interesting and unusual. Thanks to my student, we've done it! :cool:

With getting students, I have noticed that a large number of the sites set up by individual teachers offering Skype lessons in our links database vanish after a while, so that may not be a particularly effective way, though a lot depends on how well marketed a site is, and it's more a straw poll than a huge representative sample. I mostly work in a fairly narrow and specialised area, so there's a lot of word of mouth. If you can get into this sort of work, it is relatively easy to find people.

Thanks. [STRIKE]=)[/STRIKE] Don't try to make your own emoticons. Simply click on :) and choose the one you want.

Selwan, your first sentence doesn't make sense. Do you mean "I need an English teacher because I want to ask the teacher a question"?
