OK, so you've made a decision to start teaching for yourself and actually have a teaching business. But you might be worried that you'll make some mistakes. Which are totally normal, by the way. This is how we learn!

If you’re thinking about leaving your school and starting your own teaching business, you’ve probably got HUNDREDS of questions spinning around your head.

So many teachers ask me - I know about newsletters and email marketing, but should I really be doing that?! What would I even write about?!

Enjoy!

Teachers sometimes talk to me and say ‘but nothing is working for me’! And I totally understand the frustration. 

And a few more! Give it a listen to check whether if you're focusing on the right things!

If I know one thing about all of us education-nerds is that we LOVE BOOKS!

Get inspired by listening to me talk about reasons why those books were so important to me and get reading!

Why is it so hard to stay consistent in building a business? 

So how would it sound if I told you that you can work 3-4 days a week? You’d probably think I’m mad. You’d think that you’d have to work 12 hour days all the rest of the week or that it’s simply impossible! You’ll probably think that you won’t be able to afford it - that it would be just part-time work = less pay.

Well, I used to think that too. And most of my clients did. 

So today I wanted to show you that you not only can, but SHOULD limit your ‘contact hours’. That you can work less with students and that there are other things that are as important and that you don’t have to spend all your time either teaching or lesson planning. 

Curious how? Listen to this week's episode!

How many times did you want to raise your prices but were afraid that people would leave? How many times did you give someone a discount out of fear that they would leave? How many times did you get a bit desperate about money in your teaching business?

I’m going to let you ponder on these questions and offer a reframe in case you’ve ever been stressed about charging, pricing and generally selling your lessons.

We don't talk often enough about how great and impactful of a job teaching is. So let's change that! 

Selling feels icky for many teachers!
