How to teach technical skills online. 

So in this video, I'm going to share with you a couple of different ways that you can teach technical skills online. I think a lot of times people think that when they are learning hands on skills, or they are teaching hands on skills, it can be very difficult to do online.

But so what you can do is you can use online marketplaces, I've spoken about these before, you can use online marketplaces, where you know, people just put all of their courses, they've got a lot of information, a lot of different types of courses out there. Udemy is probably one of the more popular ones within the it in the technical world. And, you know, the thing is, with Udemy, couple different things, there's a lot of stuff out there, some is good, some not so good. But you as an instructor, if you put a course out on Udemy,
