Take Advantage of Your Knowledge and Skills by Teaching Online
In this blog, I’ve been trying to show you how you can gain freedom. Freedom to choose your own path, to work when and where you want and so on. I can’t think of anything more satisfying than to be able to work at home, in any city, with global clients. This removes many of the usual worries (no jobs in my city, recession in my country) by providing diversification (as you would do with your investments). As I mentioned I’ve been working remotely for many months, but I’ve recently come across some exciting news for those of you that have some sort of expertise to share with the world (and almost everyone does).
At Teaching Sells (of which I’m a member), they show you how to teach online and get paid for it. From figuring out your content and how to structure it, to marketing and building the site. The idea is to set up a paid monthly subscription site, but instead of a regular website you create an ‘Interactive Learning Environment’ using all sorts of multimedia. This creates a community of learners around your topic and provides a constant revenue stream for you.
I’m setting one of these sites up for another of my passions, teaching guitar. What can you teach to others while gaining the freedom you want?

Great post.
I am also a member of Teaching Sells. You gave me some useful advice in the “Would Teaching Music Sell?” forum.
As we’re both in the music industry, maybe it makes sense to bounce some ideas off each other? Let’s chat sometime.
