In this video I’m talking about “secondary positions” in online ESL — the extra roles you can take on alongside your regular teaching schedule with Whales English (and often other ESL companies too). These roles are a brilliant way to increase your income, but honestly, I think the bigger win is that you learn how the company works behind the scenes and you build relationships with the wider team. If you’re the kind of teacher who likes to be involved, it’s well worth throwing your hat into the ring. I walk you through the kinds of secondary positions that tend to come up, like content creation, running webinars, teacher training, curriculum-related work, evaluating, and referring/recruiting. I share why each one might suit different personalities and strengths, and how they can help you grow your skills beyond the classroom. If you’re curious about moving up, diversifying your income, or just making your online teaching job feel a bit more future-proof, this is exactly the sort of thing I’d look into.
