Online Education Tips from Leading Educators and Content Creators

" I just started writing and sharing my work as a blog. Like most people, you had a website that you just stuck together and looking back on it now it's amazing to see where it came from. "

Tracy Gillet

" I love how easy the internet makes things. In the past it was so tech heavy, and these days obviously everything is much faster and more efficient. I love the accessibility of the internet. "

Anna Tyrie

" I discovered that you could actually turn teaching online into an actual business. I had it there as a bit of a resource pool for my face to face students. Then I started receiving payments from Google. I could reach a much greater audience. "

Anna Tyrie

" We went into 2 years of content building for what is now our Fluency Programme - so building a number of courses that will take someone from a lower intermediate level of English to fluency. We haven’t ever really stopped. We built it but we continue to improve and change. "

Anna Tyrie

" The act of marketing or getting something out there is really just an act of identifying what is the next area of disconnect. Identify those areas of disconnect and then build more streamlined ways of delivering your message to people. "

Ben Ahrens

" You can give someone the perfect program, it’s pretty easy to give them on a post-it note exactly what they should do. But delivering it in a way that integrates into their life and gives them the ability to continuously act on it - that is really the key. "

Ben Ahrens

" We brought in these doctors and researchers we call the Brain Trust. They came with a lot of experience in clinical settings and could help us develop these exercises and structure them in a way that was implementable in an online program. "

Ben Ahrens

" There’s a strong interest in it, and I can help people. I’m keen to answer their questions. It takes quite a bit of time but I don’t regret it because I get ideas from what they say, what they ask, what they need to know. And it informs me about what’s going on elsewhere. "

Charles Dowding

" I’ve got a two-bed trial in my garden where I’m verifying that all the time. One bed I dig, one I don’t dig. I see the difference. We add the same amount of compost to each bed. So, I’m informing myself all the time about what I’m doing. "

Charles Dowding

" One of my favorite sayings is actually It’s not what you know, it’s what you understand, and that’s what I hope to convey in my teaching. If you understand a bit of the process, you can adapt the details to wherever you are. "

Charles Dowding

" I love learning new stuff and one of the best ways to learn is to teach. So that just came like super naturally to me. I was either teaching people in my surroundings, I had the video component and then I had this component of loving new and technology related things. "

Igor Pogany

" You really have to provide the value up front. That's kind of the reason why people come in. You just help the world.You just tell them what you know, and then if they like it, you can come up with solutions that are for the next level. "

Igor Pogany

" For people who are already educating and they want to move into the digital sphere, just record yourself in the beginning, whether it's video or it might just be audio. Just get a little mic. "

Igor Pogany

" Think of a marketplace as really an awareness channel where you can get that first audience. You can leverage your own personal branding. You can show your expertise and you can get exposed to that audience in the first place. Same way you would leverage social media or ads. "

Thalita Milan

" When you're trying to create courses on topics that are too generic, you'll be competing with a lot of people. If you're on marketplaces, you'll be competing with literally thousands of thousands of instructors. So try to go niche. There are creative ways you can go niche. "
