About InfoTeacher and the lesson you'll offer
|
|
We are committed to helping English students find good teachers/tutors like you for
their private conversation lessons.
The students will search for a prospective teacher/tutor through our system specifying
their preferences,
and get a result which lists prospective teachers/tutors.
If a student picks up and clicks one of the teachers/tutors in the list,
he/she can check the detailed information.
Our service, InfoTeacher, is basically introducing you, prospective tutors/teachers, to the student
who picked you up from the list. To become a tutor:
- You don't necessarily need credentials in English education
- You don't necessarily need to explain detailed English grammar
you only have to be a NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKER or a BILINGUAL with a valid email address to
be eligible for the registration, because many students are looking for just a partner to practice
their English conversation.
Of course teachers with credentials in teaching are welcomed to register, and you may want to
set your per-hour tuition higher.
Go PREPARATION section, get searched and make money
just by enjoying talking with students in your native language of English !
You have nothing to lose just by registering and being exposed to students
if you're an enthusiastic English teacher or tutor!!
