Hey guys! Just a disclaimer, these tips are tips that worked for ME. This doesn’t mean that they’ll work for everyone but it’s worth a shot. If you’re still not getting students after applying these tips, I would recommend that you also look into teaching on other platforms. Below is a PDF with a list of companies you can apply to. You can expect to get the following information: • Company name • Hourly rate • Bonuses • Requirements (degree AND non-degree holders), • Working hours • Preferred nationality • Payment system • Additional information and • A link that sends you to each company’s website. Again, thank you so much for watching, and all the best on your journey to online English teaching. drive.google.com/file/d/1Dm1Rp_jA7fzvewOMjhXVwUG0ZRMMTouu/view?usp=sharing

[@mrinternet.]

Hey I have a question, so you mentioned in your other video that to teach you're required to have a computer and webcam etc. Do you happen to know if say a tablet with a good connection and a good quality front facing camera can also do the job? Or are the requirements pretty strict?

[@Hey_Its_Mikki]

To apply you would need to do that on your desktop. If/when your application is successful, you can then teach on your tablet or phone

@@Sharon.Masengana I'm no online teacher but to answer your Webcam question, most Webcams are plug n play, meaning you just plug them into your PC or laptop and run the software and that's it.

Is the TEFL Certificate From Teacher Record Recognizable?

[@Hey_Its_Mikki]

I don’t have a yes or no answer for you because I genuinely don’t know. However, I only decided to get another TEFL certificate because I can’t get a straight answer to that question myself. So rather than being rejected or questioned by companies, I decided to do one that I know for sure is accredited. I’m still going to be in this ESL world for a while so it’s better to have something in hand that I’m 100% confident about.

[@LeboNkgodi]

Hey babe this is totally unrelated but when you earn do you pay taxes?

[@zoe4eel]

This is from another KZbinr who covered that topic, but basically yes 😅 you are earning an income, so you have to abide by the income tax regulations. But your income is definitely taxable. You'll have to do your own research on paying tax as someone who's self employed
