Extra Credit with Teacher Michael

Today I sit down with my best friend Josh to discuss the best approach to referring new teachers during a global pandemic.

In addition to teaching with VIPKid I recently started teaching with GoGoKid as well and today I'm going to answer some questions about why I made that decision.

==========

Questions from this episode:

1. How has your teaching style changed at GoGoKid, if at all?

2. Have you had to prepare additional props for GGK or is the material similar enough that you don't have to?

3. Is it worth the headache to add a second company?

4. What have you done about the dress code and branding in the classroom?

5. Can you book the 9 & 9:30 pm (BJT) time slots with GoGoKid?

I recently started teaching with GoGoKid as well as VIPKid and today I'm going to answer some questions about why I made that decision.

Questions from this episode:

1. Were you not getting enough VIPKid bookings? Is that why you added GoGoKid?

2. What are the GoGoKid hours like?

3. Is it worth getting a TESOL certificate?

4. How have your GoGoKid booking been in the 1st month?

5. Do you think it's fair for companies to have a clause in the contract saying that you can't teach for a competing company?
