In this episode, Teacher Zdenek (an English teacher from the Czech Republic) and I answer other English teachers' questions about getting started in the online teaching world and developing your own online teaching business. In this episode, we talk about finding a niche, overcoming issues that non-native English teachers face online in the industry, and how to get started and grow successfully on YouTube!
Zdenek kind of sat back a bit for this episode as we talked mostly about YouTube, but he will definitely be contributing more in future episodes when talking about niches and course creation!
