OUTSCHOOL CLASS EXAMPLE: Before, During, & After my Outschool Class

[@teachwithalejandra]

What would you like to teach on Outschool?

[@teachwithalejandra]

@Learn ESL and ELE with Richard Yes of course! You can send me an email at [e-mail]

[@jr-yv9nn]

Alejandra, can we focus on students on the other side of the Globe?

[@teachwithalejandra]

@@jr-yv9nn Yes you can. It will really depend on the time of day you open up classes. For example when I teach early mornings in my time zone I teach many students from Asia but when I teach during lunch time I teach many students in North America.

[@jr-yv9nn]

@@teachwithalejandra Excellent. Thanks!

[@mistylambert2567]

I was hired by Outschool back in April but I cannot get learners to sign up. I’ve taught in the elementary public school setting for 20 years. I really want to do this but it’s very frustrating having no learners. My email is [e-mail]

[@Mombierella]

Thank you for sharing. Looking into this and was curious

[@teachwithalejandra]

Thanks for watching!! Are you considering online teaching?

[@jherriot24019]

You have great screen presence!

[@lriley2642]

You are so awesome at this.! Thanks for sharing. I will try that out.

[@teachwithalejandra]

Thanks for watching! If you have any questions about Outschool let me know.

[@reclaiming.teaching]

Simple yet amazing! I like watching the Outschool samples of classes. I agree. The opportunities for working from home still surprise me and fill me with glee!

[@teachwithalejandra]

Yes! I love learning about new opportunities! Have you started working with Outschool?

[@reclaiming.teaching]

Alejandra Londono Not yet! Too busy to squeeze it in right now. But it’s in my back pocket. :)

[@nekeb5421]

Very helpful! Thx

[@rebeccafelber5187]

I like how you did the thumbs up/ down to answer questions!

[@teachwithalejandra]

Yes, I love trying to incorporate body movement and hand gestures so everyone can participate without always having to take turns speaking. Thanks for watching Rebecca!

[@kristenalmonte1110]

Nice fun factor!

[@mela0521]

Best sample class video I've seen yet! I recently started teaching and this helped immensely

[@teachwithalejandra]

I'm so glad it helped! Thanks for watching :)

[@Holyhype3]

Thank you 😊 love your energy ✨️

Like 12 🙏🏿🙏🏿👌 Very useful video for teachers and students 👍👍👌👌🤗🤗🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

[@teachwithalejandra]

Thank you for watching! ☺️

[@jeremyarcus-goldberg9543]

Great video with lots of tips. I love how you figured out how to lead a drawing class with only one camera.

[@Gioconda144]

Amazing class!

[@teachwithalejandra]

thank you 💕

[@jr-yv9nn]

By the way, Nice teaching attitude, very good material, praising students and TPR.

[@teachwithalejandra]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@lindseygallagher8159]

where did you get your headphones? also, I don’t really have an office set up in my home. are there other ways to go around the space you work in?

[@teachwithalejandra]

My headphones were from Best Buy but using headphones isn't necessary. You can use any space in your home honestly. Sometimes when I teach lessons out of office I have a green screen or just blur my background. You can use either of those features on Zoom.

[@nicoled.1032]

I love this video! Your energy is contagious! Thank you for sharing! 💕

[@dowhatyoulove3216]

Thank you so much for this great example. :) I also hope to teach on Outschool in the near future, however right now I am still doing my research.. :)

So fun to see! I don’t teach in outschool, but i still enjoyed watching it!

Thanks for watching Brittany!

Love this video! You make it seem so easy!

Thanks for watching! 💞

[@anagarcia5070]

Love your energy! Very informative, thank you.

Thank you Ana.

[@eslonlineteachingandmore8190]

I love it! You did such a great job!

[@teachwithalejandra]

Thank you! I appreciate you watching my class.

[@literacyartbyiris7183]

Thanks for the information.

[@teachwithalejandra]

Thanks for watching 💗

[@bellaandnate]

Love your shirt!

[@missmaricela6368]

Great job thank you for sharing your class. I learned a few tips. I believe you can use your phone as a document camera. My Spanish classes are getting booked, but, not my Yorkie drawing class. 😥

[@teachwithalejandra]

I was going to try and use my phone but I’m not sure how to connect it to zoom yet. Have you tried it? Also thanks for watching! 💖

[@missmaricela6368]

@@teachwithalejandra I haven't yet because my drawing class isn't getting any learners. I recommend you watch, Lindsay Moynihan, "How to use Your Phone as a Document Camera in Zoom" video. I found it easy and very helpful. She's also an Outschool teacher.

[@teachwithalejandra]

@@missmaricela6368 Thank you for the recommendation. I will have to check it out.

[@jazmindlc7215]

Man I need to submit a class on outschool😅 I get nervous about it. Loved watching this!! What headset do you have ? I’ve been considering wireless :)

[@teachwithalejandra]

Yes! It's normal to be nervous but after a few classes it gets a lot easier! I use my beats. Thank you so much for watching.

[@jazmindlc7215]

Alejandra Londono 🤗💕

[@jamee_maree]

I know this is an older video, but just curious if you are still teaching online and if so, which platforms are working vs not? (Noticed last few videos were a year ago but forgot to comment until was watching this one lol)

[@teachwithalejandra]

I am currently still teaching online with Outschool. I am not using any other platforms at this time so I can't really say how other companies are doing.

[@eslwithagypsysoul3942]

First of all... Oh my goodness, I love your shirt! And it’s so cool to see what you do before, during, and after your Outschool classes! 💝 llamas are awesome! This looks like such a cute and fun class 🌺 Your llama is so adorable haha! How long is this class? What a fun idea! You’re so organized, I love it! 🥰

[@teachwithalejandra]

Thanks for watching 💖 I know! I’m loving my llama class, it’s a 30 min class & I seriously love teaching it. Have you thought about your next class yet?

[@eslwithagypsysoul3942]

@@teachwithalejandra That's so awesome! It seems like your students would totally love it! That's great💖 My wheels are always turning haha!

[@briangoodspeed8815]

Where did you get your shirt from?

[@teachwithalejandra]

I got this shirt years ago from another online teacher. I don’t think she makes them anymore though 😔

[@Hey-howdy-yall]

How do you know how long each class takes? I created two and felt like I wasn't going to have enough material but I ended up not having enough time! :(

[@teachwithalejandra]

It's definitely a learning process. I think as you get more experience with teaching your own lesson plans you get better at timing. I know for me I set a specific time goal for each activity. For example 5 minutes intro, 10 min discussion, 15 min drawing time etc. But of course, sometimes, depending on the group of students the lesson may be a bit shorter or longer.

[@angelastanton9671]

Where did you get your T-shirt and Apple teacher sign? They are so cute!😊

[@teachwithalejandra]

I got the t-shirt from another teacher on instagram. Her link is in the description box. And I bought the sign from target. Thanks for watching!

[@samchai2141]

Thank you for all the great info, I am in a process of applying for Out school. I am wondering if I told them that I want to teach students how to paint, can I later switch to teach math?

[@teachwithalejandra]

Thanks for watching! Yes of course. You are not limited to one subject area. So you can start with painting and later do math if you'd like.

[@samchai2141]

Thank you! Can I use your name as my referral?

[@teachwithalejandra]

@@samchai2141 Yes of course! I would love to help you out. Send me an email with any questions you have at [e-mail]

@@teachwithalejandra I will do that thanks again!

[@shantelprice9466]

What do you charge for this type of class...so cute! Great energy!

[@teachwithalejandra]

Generally I charge $8-10

[@jr-yv9nn]

Hi! If we have experience teaching Asian kids, Middle eastern kids and Latin American kids, can those kids from far away or other parts of the world have access to Outschool? Kindly, Ruben :D

[@teachwithalejandra]

Hello, yes students from around the world in many different countries can take classes on Outschool.
