In this video I sit down with Sam, who’s brand new to Outschool, and we go through what her first two months have actually looked like as a new teacher on the platform. We chat about what Outschool is (and how it’s different from the more “traditional” online ESL companies), why she chose it, and what’s been working for her so far — including the fact she’s already built momentum with successful classes and a lovely stack of 5-star reviews. Sam walks me through the application process, what she thinks helped her get accepted, and the kinds of things you want to have ready before you apply. Then we get into the practical side: how to market yourself to parents, what parents are really looking for when they click on your class, and how to set yourself up so you’re not just posting a class and hoping for the best. We also talk earnings in a realistic way — what’s possible, what affects it, and why your topic, listing, and consistency matter. If you’re considering Outschool as a way to earn remotely and build a bit more freedom into your life, this is a really useful “new teacher” perspective.
