Foreign Development English

26/09/2020

Greetings, fellow teachers. Over the past year, I have received many emails from my followers asking me if I can build a tutoring website for them or whether or not there is a way for them to build their own. I decided that I would make a step-by-step tutorial for building your own tutoring website that comes with a fully-featured booking/scheduling system and calendar, easy payments (from Stripe, PayPal, Alipay, etc.) when a lesson is booked, and the ability to connect with your students and followers through blogging and posting content.

Teachers, there's no better time than now to start building up your own platform. Why wait? You could be taking your freelance teaching game to the next level with a good website that can scale up as you receive more students.

This tutorial is available on Amazon for $9.99 in Ebook format.

Build Your Own Tutor Service Booking Website by Connor Smith

21/09/2020

Hey, everyone. I recently wrote a step-by-step guide on building a scheduling/service booking website for freelance tutors. The idea for this came when I realized that ESL (English as a second language) tutors weren't taking advantage of the opportunity to find their own students. I created a poll on r/tefl asking why. 72% of ESL tutors weren't sure how to set up their own platform, 10% were too lazy to start looking for students on their own, and 18% didn't even know where to start finding students.

I hope that you find it useful and that it gives some of you non-tech tutors out there a way to build a tutoring website without having to hire a developer or get into too many technical details.
