If You're Thinking...

“I don’t have time to create an online course!”

  •  That’s why you NEED to be here. Virtual teaching gives you time back.

"I'm not tech-savvy enough to teach online!"

  • You don’t need to be. If you can send an email, you can teach online.

“I’m too awkward on camera!” 

  • Your students value authenticity over perfection - you connect best by being yourself.

I was anxious when being filmed, even for family purposes. We have no video with my family where I speak. It proved to be a huge obstacle for creating my online teaching business if I’m terrified of speaking to the camera and filming my online classes.  Yet here I am speaking to you in a language, which is not even my mother tongue. 

I had no technical background with any sort of video production so I needed help with what equipment to buy. I took the time to sit down and say, OK I don’t need the high-end stuff right now, I can start with the low-end and work my way up.

The bottom line is that Virtual Teaching is here to stay. Students need to have workshops worth their time and their money, and that is the advantage of the Academy. We help teachers to give QUALITY online workshops.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

You’ll learn how to take your in-person workshops and successfully translate them to online courses. We’ll cover: What resources you need to teach live on Zoom and/or create on-demand courses. How to structure your lessons so students stay engaged. A step-by-step audit of your current equipment, tech, and skills—so you can see just how close you already are to getting started!

This is a live, interactive Zoom workshop with three working sessions. That means you’ll not only learn but also take action during the sessions. You’ll have worksheets, planners, and clear steps to move forward so that by the end, you’ll have a real plan for your online teaching.

You only need a phone, and a clear plan! You’ll be surprised at how much you can do with what you already have. And if you can teach the amazing art or craft your create? You can definitely learn minimal tech. Think about it, what would you tell one of YOUR students who said "I'm terrible at this"?

You don’t have to be perfect—your students want you, not a polished production. What you have to offer will make their lives more creative, better, easier and happier. Don' teeny them that gift!

All sessions will be recorded, and replays will be available. However, attending live gives you the opportunity to ask questions, get real-time feedback, and make progress alongside others. And.... GIVEAWAYS!!!!

If you’re a crafter, quilter, or artist who teaches in-person and wants to start your own online teaching business - but aren’t sure where to start - this is for you.
If you are a shop owner or designer who wants to explore how online workshops can work into your business - this is for you!
Whether you’re curious about Zoom workshops, on-demand courses, or a mix of both, this training will give you the clarity and confidence to move forward.
