In this video I’m talking about something every independent online ESL teacher has to figure out: what curriculum you’re going to use when you’re not teaching inside a company’s pre-made lesson system. I share a couple of solid starting points so you’re not wasting hours trying to reinvent the wheel. I point you to “The Ultimate List” because it gives you a big, organized roundup of ESL curriculum options, and I also mention ESL KidStuff as a super practical site with ready-to-use materials you can pull into your lessons. I also connect this curriculum conversation to the bigger side-hustle picture—because curriculum is part of how you build your own teaching business. If you want to teach classes you design and price yourself, I mention Outschool. If you’d rather keep it simple and just show up and talk with students worldwide, I mention Cambly. And if you’re still getting set up, I include ways to stay connected with me (my email list and freebies) so you can keep building your online teaching journey with less trial and error.
