In this video, I’m sharing an online teacher Dollar Tree haul and exactly how I turn cheap, simple items into fun activities for my online classes. If you teach ESL online (or you teach on platforms like Outschool/Allschool), you already know you don’t need fancy materials to keep kids engaged—you need easy-to-prep props and games you can reuse. I focus on items that help with visuals, rewards, and quick interaction, because that’s what keeps students talking and participating. I also connect this haul to the bigger side hustle picture: keeping your “teacher spending” low so your online teaching income stays profitable. I’m always looking for tools that work across different platforms and age groups, and Dollar Tree finds are perfect for that. And if you’re still figuring out where to teach online, I link the platforms I recommend plus my free resources and email list so you can build a plan, get bookings, and grow your at-home teacher income without overcomplicating it.
