When I began teaching online in 2012, I had no online experience, no email list, and zero traditional teaching experience. I started out in a position like many of you. Today, I have over 60,000 students taking my own high-quality courses. I'm making more money than I've ever made before, and I believe you can do it too! In this in-depth book, I teach you everything I did to build my own online teaching career – from the very beginning to now. In this complete guide to teaching online courses, I break down how I got started teaching online, how I built my own brand, and how I make recurring passive income from teaching online. The book is broken down into 4 THINK, CREATE, SHARE, BUILD. Here’s what is taught in each THINK Do you really want to be an online teacher? What can you teach? How to get in the right mindset of an online teacher Steps to your first course Types of online courses Coming up with class topics that will sell Brainstorming your first course and more!

Great Intro

The author is a well known successful online educator. You will get the best practices in an easy to read ebook, direct from the horses mouth. Highly recommend the book as well as his other online resources.

This is a very low quality and low effort book.

I bought this book to learn how to make online courses. I learned that I should set the PowerPoint slide size to 16:9 and use a sans-serif family font. There is no comparison of what microphones or cameras to buy, just two or three pages about the fact that you should get one. A lot of advice is very vague and does not go into detail, it is like reading a magazine.

It is also poorly formatted (missing photos or photos that go over text) and obviously has never been proofread.

Not to mention he is promoting his online in every chapter. One of his strategies that he reveals is to have a presence everywhere and that's what this book is - a quick presence on Kindle to promote his online courses.

Awesome book. If you ever wanted to teach online this book gives you the basics to get started. I started reading this book a week ago and before I even finished the book I had a class up on Skillshare and working on one for Udemy. I am telling you the way this book lays it out for you makes it simple enough for the novice.

Excellent advice, well presented

Looking for another point of view before making the commitment to teach writing online. Phil's straightforward approach and valuable links place the responsibility for success where it belongs: on my shoulders. Thank you!
