Summary
$10,000 a month working 20-hour weeks sounds like a pretty sweet gig! And for Jade Weatherington, it's been a dream come true to make a living in education--while working from home.
Her financial success didn't happen overnight. She had months of earning less than $100 from her online private tutoring.
But when she discovered a then-new platform called Outschool, things really started to take off.
In her first month on the platform, Jade made $32. Still, she was encouraged by the possibilities and scale of teaching online classes there.
By the third month, she made almost $5,000.
Today she’s making $10,000+ from a combination of online classes, pre-recorded courses, and other teaching products -- all while working around 20 hours a week.
Tune in to The Side Hustle Show interview to learn:
- how to decide what topics to teach
- the online teaching platforms Jade likes
- how to price and market your courses or classes

| 0:05.3 | out there, somebody wants to know what you already do. And that spells a side hustle or |
| 0:11.3 | a business opportunity to teach them. And by teaching online, you can, of course, reach |
| 0:16.3 | a wider audience. You can scale to more students at once. It's more time leveraged than one |
| 0:22.2 | on one tutoring, for example. And today's guest has been dabbling in online teaching |
| 0:26.7 | on a ton of different platforms for the last 10 years, but went from making less than |
| 0:31.6 | a hundred bucks a month teaching online to over $10,000 a month and says you can too. Jade |

| 1:16.5 | with students. So maybe we'll start there, Jade, with your figuring out what to teach, |
| 1:21.7 | how to figure out what topic to stake your claim in here. Sure. So anybody who's like, |
| 1:27.2 | I want to teach online or things that they can't teach online because they're not a credential |
| 1:31.5 | or license teacher. That's the first thing that you need to forget. You should absolutely |
| 1:35.5 | aim for teaching whatever you're passionate about. So if you have a love for trees, there's |
| 1:41.3 | someone who wants to sign up for your class and learn about trees. So the topic that you |
