What do students say?

“What sets this course apart from others is the combined expertise & methodology utilized by Paige & Minji. Both have vast experience in the field of online education, & how to guide individuals to success as are independent teacher from a business & educator mindset. …I have implemented several of the strategies I learned in this course in my independent teaching with positive results.” - Respectfully, Alyse Bukoski, M.A., M.Ed., CAGS

“I highly recommend this Udemy course. It's been carefully designed to cater to teachers. It helps them understand how to embed their methodology and teaching into a business strategy. Teachers feel comfortable teaching, but when it comes to setting up a business, most of us step back and hesitate because business isn't what we can do. This course shows how to overcome that mental block and make a step towards setting up a sustainable teaching business.” - Ann
