As an Online English instructor, you can expect to earn anywhere from $12 to $26 USD per hour (and occasionally more) depending on your skills and the hiring school.
-
Depending on where your pupils are located, you can teach early morning hours, late evening hours, or even a full-time daytime schedule. If you wish to teach in addition to your 9-5 work, this makes teaching English Online a viable side income.
-
As with classroom based teaching, it is important to prepare thoroughly, set fair expectations to your students, keep a positive, can-do attitude, always be patient with pupils, and regularly evaluate their learning. Also, keep in mind that students learn in different ways and therefore it's important to regularly reflect on your teaching materials and change them up if necessary.
-
Discover your student's passions and include them into the class as much as feasible. Give students regular feedback on their progress. Make an effort to be a happy, upbeat and approachable teacher. Show your face, smile and keep any slide bulletins short. Integrate games into class and keep a strong focus on time management, ensuring the lesson remains well paced and on point.
-
Instead of meeting students face-to-face, Online English teachers communicate with and teach them using email, online whiteboards and live messaging. It goes without saying that a reasonable grasp of technology is important to succeed in this field!
