Teachers, the Internet
and Money Making

Internet Income Orientation Guide for Teachers
and Those Who Love to Teach

By:
Chukwuemeka Fred Agbata Jnr.
& Joe Oye

Intro

You are probably aware…

This is a different and very unique special report for teachers and all
who love to share, for pay, what they do or know.

The reason we produced the special report is because we have
noticed that many people are still wondering about making
money by turning what they are doing as hobbies or
occupations or their special knowledge into sources of extra
income - using, especially, the Internet as a platform.

Nigeria‟s population is soaring towards the brim of 170 million.
According to the Internet World Stats Report, 2012, only 48,039,711
Nigerian are online.

By now, you are probably aware of the first figure mentioned above,
if not the second one.

You've probably heard...

Today, millions of people around the world have prioritized
consulting the Internet for information before checking information
sources off the Internet. This is done to the extent that even for
health and wellness information, they search the Internet before
they consult doctors and other health and wellness specialists.

Definitely, that points you to how important the Internet has become
when it comes to seeking and getting information in a firsthand
manner.

More millions of people use the Internet for formal, business,
technical and personal, education purposes. We are not surprised
to have noticed the huge rush the Internet is experiencing from
different types of learners.

You‟ve probably heard that learning online is now in hot demand.
The in-thing…

In fact, knowledge expansion using the Internet is sweeping over
every nation; including Nigeria.

You've probably asked...

In Nigeria, the newspapers are crammed with headlines on bombing,
killings, corruption, down economy and other gruesome occurrences
and issues. These have unavoidably dominated how we spend our
days. To be candid, news isn‟t news anymore! We are sure you‟ve
read and heard enough of all these lately.

You have heard and read about teachers‟ strikes too. If you are a
school teacher, you cannot deny your participation in strikes! They
have unfortunately become so frequent.

Back to headlines and news, you must have noticed that almost
nothing else is published and aired about teachers other than
strikes. Even though, the Teachers‟ Day is yearly observed, we can

COMING SOON:

only give the credit to the International Labour Organisation (ILO)
which has made it a standard for commemoration. Shall we talk
here of the cosmetic promises usually made on Teachers‟ Day by
government officials? No! Not now. Not here. You will also see that
the celebration of the Day and similar occasions never interpret to
better financial status for teachers!

You probably have asked too… Why teachers are so neglected by the
government? So mistreated in terms of being paid salaries that
match not with the load of work they do. It is the same story on the
part of managements of private schools. We recognize they are in
business, though.

Well, the neglects may not be surprising than seeing many teachers
themselves still remaining ignorant of turning their call to cash in
the part-time or after-school ways. Please forget making money
from the so called “lessons” or summer coaching or NECO or WAEC
short-time jobs here… Or selling stationeries to pupils or students…
Or any other petty engagements many teachers think they can use
to patch the holes in their financial status.

We are not here to demean teachers or water down all their efforts to
improve themselves financially. We are here to provide you the
ticket for you to get to your best financial zone through today‟s
technology. We are here to show that we feel the ways things are
with you financially. We are here to provide you with the clarity and
direction you have been wishing to have.

We want to tell you that we have you in mind in getting this special
report in place for you to be guided to the Internet where we clearly

know you can get paid with teaching. We have the concern about
you getting extra-income working short hours on the Internet.
We are so happy that, in Nigeria, we are the first team raising
the first make-money-online concern for teachers and, at the
same time, for other Nigerians who love to share either formal
or informal knowledge with people in or outside Nigeria. We
are pleased that the „wonder‟ called the Internet has made it
possible that Nigerians can teach Nigerians virtually – and
even other people all over the world.

We are glad that we have been doing what we are passionate about
on the internet for some years now. We are joyful that doing that
has paid off and that the returns are growing day by day. How
pleasant has it become that we chose to share our income-making
experience with you and other Nigerian teachers?

Before we go on, here are the brief profiles of the authors of this

THOUSANDS OF TEACHERS, SAME QUESTION!

|7

COMING SOON:

The above graphics are question clippings from the Internet. That
they are from the Internet is not important here. The important
thing is your ability to grasp the message behind them.

We decided to caption that page as “Thousands of Teachers, Same
One Question!” because the questions displayed represent huge
number of such questions so prevalent online. Even with the three
samples, it is easy to see the questions teachers are asking about
improving their lives.

Look at the questions again.

Did you notice the following words?

Extra cash
Extra money
Extra income
Part-time

Those words are the keywords in the questions and, at the same
time, they are the core of the questions; the core of the financial
improvement concern of teachers.

We will all agree that all the questions are relatively the same. They
show what most teachers are asking individually:

How can I make more income on part-time basis?

We have indicated that those three questions were discovered online.

|8

COMING SOON:

Thousands of teachers are personally asking the above “how-can-
I…” question.

Again, let‟s tell you that our inboxes have been flooded with various
forms of that question from across the globe. Notable among the
enquiries are from Nigerians on how they can earn extra recurring
income while not at work or even when they are at work (i.e. as
passive income).

We are sure you have asked or intended to ask that question too as
a teacher.

There can be a lot of worries if you have not received any answer to
that question, especially if you want to start out in something new.
How hard could this be for the person who is a starter and who does
not seem to have an experienced person to help show the way?

We don‟t know you personally, but I know the following three things
about you:

a. You have great discontentment about your situation of not
getting something on your hand to fetch you money beyond
your present income. This might be more frustrating to you
that we think!

b. You have the longing as a teacher (or an individual who loves
to get paid sharing his or her knowledge with learners) to start
building extra income with teaching.

|9

COMING SOON:

c. You wish that you have someone in the know of making extra
cash who can lead you in regarding that longing.
We want to assure you that we, as a team (and as introduced
above), are here to help you about your longing. We stand as
the “someone” in the know of making extra cash so ready to
lead you by hand to extra income based on the use of the
Internet.

While we can lead all Internet beginners in, we felt we need to create
a ground for orientating the teachers (or individuals who loves to get
paid sharing his or her knowledge with learners) about teaching and
making money on the Internet.

…and we, therefore, created this personal orientation guide for you.

Let‟s go over the contents of this personal orientation guide giving
you the fundamentals you need:

Teachers are made ready for the Internet and the Internet is
ready-made for teachers plus other reasons you must note

Surprisingly, besides the identified struggling, misconceptions and
confusion, the opportunities for teachers to earn money through the
Internet are untiring.

Teachers are made ready for the Internet. The Internet is ready-
made for teachers. These are two of the reasons we found out
showing that teachers can easily teach and conveniently make
money on the Internet. We have other reasons too as explained
further down the pages.

Wide Web journey ahead.

Furthermore, you will note the two styles teachers can use to teach
online.

Facets of teaching for money on the Internet

We provide the facets on which teachers can make money on the
Internet, even though their specifics are contained in our successive
information package on Teachers, the Internet and Money Making.

In that information package, the details of online teaching regarding
the following matters are provided to help the beginners of online
teaching business have the required understanding:

Hardware components (e.g. computer)
Internet necessities
Software (e.g. online whiteboard and communication applications)
Activities (assignments, examinations etc)
Course, Tests and Evaluation materials
Delivery (multimedia, course materials etc)
Teacher-Leaner relationship
Fees/methods of payments
Audience (local and global)

COMING SOON:

How a beginner can start teaching online so simple without
compulsorily making use of all the things listed above (i.e. how to
make exceptions in the use of tools and materials) are explained in
the afore-mentioned information package.

Be warned and be aware of the factors forcing teachers to stand
still financially

We deal with some fallacies that force teachers stand still and make
them think that making money online may is hard or is not for
them.

Of course, our observations cover how to personally neutralize the
misconceptions working against you in taking the next big steps.
This part shows what to do to avoid worrying about the usual
excuses that don‟t make things happen as wanted and as fast as
possible.

opportunities in the education area of the Internet marketplace.

REASONS WHY YOU CAN START TEACHING ONLINE – EASILY
AND SOONER

We were moved to pioneer the efforts of improving the financial
status of teachers through online teaching because of the enhancing
factors we found available concerning that.

Some of these are shared with you below as takeaways from this
orientation guide.

Takeaway #1: No limit to entry – though you must be engaged in
focused area(s).

Like any other engagements on the Internet, teaching online has no
limit or obligatory requirements to enter. In other words, once you
have identified your areas of interest, you can start without any
delay on any chosen online presence platform.

However, the no-limit entry opportunity does not mean that
necessary technical processes as well as ethical rules will not be
followed. Technical processes are what a beginner can master in no
time.

Takeaway #2: Certificates, Diploma and Degree – not usually required

No one (teachers or interested individuals) need to base their
teaching intentions on the qualifications they have. Diploma,
certificate and degree in education are not usually required for being
a private teacher online.

Please note that pure academic teaching involving Universities
(online and those with distance learning teaching opportunities) and
| 14

COMING SOON:

similar educational entities often verify the qualifications, experience
and internet skills of potential teachers. We need to point out to you
here that there are various teaching options on the academic arena
too for which no verification is required.

Takeaway #3: You can easily plug your skills to the Internet.

Let us assure you that there is no teaching skill or activities you
desire to do that cannot be fitted to and used on the Internet. It
goes, therefore, that teaching online covers all areas of education
and training. This has made the online education industry to
become a multi-billion industry.

Takeaway #4: The Internet is ready-made for teachers

The main use of the internet is learning and the majority of learning
done on the Internet is by teaching. Of course, the Internet is full of
teaching opportunities which clearly indicate that the need for
online teaching and learning wouldn‟t be saturated.

| 15

COMING SOON:

All the tools needed by teachers to teach online are already made
available and it is observed that they are continuously provided and
advanced as the needs arise.

Takeaway #5: Teachers are made ready for the Internet

The training received by teachers is applicable and transferrable to
the Internet. What is left for a teaching beginner on the Internet is
to master and apply a few skills: computer operation skill, word
processing skill, emailing skill and Web browsing skill.

These skills are already every day requisites for almost everyone.
There is no argument that typical teachers must have acquired
these skills beforehand.

Takeaway #6: Technical requirements for online teaching - average

The previous takeaway explains this as well. The skills enumerated
above fall within the average skills expected of a teacher of today.
So, if you have possessed these skills, you are just a few steps to
your Internet teaching income.

Takeaway #7: Teaching is a business on its own

All what obtains about online income building through teaching can
only clearly spell out how big teaching is as a business.

Offline, we take teaching as absolutely formal and so, we tend to
look at it as a uni-source of income for teachers and as a job; a job
meant only for certificated people in education.

| 16

COMING SOON:

Online, it is more than that.

Even offline, the framework of teaching is parallel to that of
business: teacher to students versus businessman to clients or
audience. Assuming each students paying directly to the teacher!
On the Internet, this pay-to-the-teacher framework runs quite easy.

What you will need as a teacher, with a teaching business online, is
to create a payment channel through which teaching fees will be
paid.

Can you see your classroom work now in a business perspective?

Takeaway #8: Teachers are marketers

Teachers are great influencers. We believe that you will agree with
this in a straight manner.

Teachers were trained in how to create and apply persuasion
methods to enhance or change the perspectives and beliefs of their
students. It is evident that when this skill is hinged on while
running a business online, the result has always been huge.

Maybe, you didn‟t know you have this skill yourself!

Takeaway #9: Our economy is weak. Yet, a leverage

Our economy is down.

We already know that.

| 17

COMING SOON:

So many changes are taking place. It is not a hard fact that it is a
good time to peep into it and pick any opportunity found available.
We have stories of people who succeeded doing this.

As bad as the economy is, the Internet still serves as a safe haven
for anyone who is serious about making extra and recurring income.
This notwithstanding, you must have passion for whatever you want
to do online.

In the present case, you must have passion for teaching and for
teaching online.
Yet, the down economy is a motivation (an opportunity) for teachers
to get extra incomes by turning to the ever-booming online business
of teaching.

Takeaway #10: Given the technology, teachers’ lives can be made
easier financially

We uphold the fact that if teachers are given (taught) relevant
technology and procedures, their lives will improve financially. Our
team is the closest testimony we can cite here.

Takeaway #11: Those making difference and helping to achieve
results get paid.

Those who make difference and help other people to achieve their
life goals are usually paid for it. If you are, as a teacher, get paid
doing those in the classroom. There is point in you not being paid
outside the class…

| 18

COMING SOON:

…even on the Internet where your presence is not compulsorily
required to get paid.

Takeaway #12: You can earn earlier than you think

As simple as that, you can start earning on the Internet far before
your expected time.

Takeaway #13: You are time rich

We know teachers are time rich and we feel it is better to turn your
white times to money. The Internet gives this chance – this chance
of earning while you are even in the class or while sleep.
Takeaway #14: Ready audience

There are ready learners online. How fast you locate them or how
large the number you get depends on your online interests and
marketing techniques you are able to apply.

Takeaway #15: You can start free

| 19

COMING SOON:

As indicated above, there are various learning management tools for
teachers online and they are fitted for every teaching need. It is very
pleasant to note that most tools or applications are free. Those that
are sold are always free to start with and there is the option for paid
upgrading when wanted.

Takeaway #16: Success stories regarding online teaching business

(To be included in our upcoming internet package for teachers)

If asked to summarize all the takeaways above into one statement,
we will only say that:

You as a teacher or an enthusiast in teaching, don‟t have a
reason now to jumpstart your own teaching business on the
Internet.

INTERESTING INSIGHTS

Just before we go to the style and facets of your Internet teaching
business, listen to some selected interesting insights:

People are turning to the Internet in great numbers

Greatly - indeed.

People are turning (better put: rushing) to the Internet in search of
information. The rush is enormous and so also is the potentials for
making money. The teachers cannot be left behind. The audience
outlets are expanding too. Smart phones, iphones, ipads, and other
variants of tablets are expanding the outlets for reaching and
teaching your audience.

The audience, the horizon of opportunities, the technology, the tools,
will grow bigger. The ways of doing things online will grow better.
The way to make money too will be easier and be more numerous.
History and trends have told us all these.

The time to jump in is now! The time to learn about entering and
operating in the online teaching industry is now.

Let’s Talk of Believing, Thinking and Growing Rich

We realize what those waiting to start a business believe.

They believe that:

| 21

COMING SOON:

They have potentials.
They were born rich.
They can think and grow rich.
They can do and achieve a lot.
They have talents and skills
They should be able to surmount negative feelings; doubt, fear and
low esteem.

At the same time, they regret that doing nothing to improve their
financial status amount to wasting their time and wasting
abounding opportunities.

But the reality is, they are confused and their confidence is at loss.
They know that they need clarity. They need more than great ideas.
They need appropriate direction that will land them in their dreamed
profit zone. They need focus.

Another reality is that by not taking action, they remain
wishpreneurs and waitpreneurs. They sympathize themselves
undeservedly. They seem to forget that doing nothing brings
nothing.

If you feel you are like those described above. Then you must be
concerned so much about taking action now.

For reading this personal orientation guide on online teaching thus
far to this point, I have the view that you want to teach online for
extra income. I believe that you will want to start doing something
about “doing something”. Or let us say doing something about
teaching online.

| 22

COMING SOON:

This insight is our call to action to you.

Between thinking and growing rich, there should be actions.

It is time to break from wishes and to stop waiting.

Again, this is our call to action.

Just for you… Take action now.

On the Internet, every day is a pay day

An unchangeable statement is: 24-7-365, every day is a pay on the
Internet.

One quick advice

Don‟t forget that you are free to be free financially and that after
doing something productive, there is no small result.

One quick quote:

| 23

COMING SOON:

Therefore: Don‟t be sticky to start helping people by teaching on the
Internet.

There is no magic involved in taking action

The world needs more celebrities but the funny thing is that the
world does not hurry up the waiting celebrities. The world only
waits for and celebrates those who take action. That is those who
did something and did it greatly and, most often, with high level
distinction.

It is time to suspend your brainwork.

Stop the brainwork on that great idea. Now is the time to work with
the brain. It‟s time to get into the „doing‟ part.

Ever thought about this…

Whenever there is a change in law, technology and politics, someone
gets rich.

…a food for your thought.

FIRST THINGS TO KNOW FIRST ABOUT ONLINE TEACHING

Now let us look through basic information about the Internet
marketplace you want to enter:

1. Styles of Online Teaching

Based on our involvement in online teaching, we could describe the
two styles of online teaching available online:

a. Pedagogic Online Teaching

This is the academic way of teaching online which can be either
institutional or self-managed. The two styles by delivery can be
either by synchronous and asynchronous – blended and non-
blended.

b. Customized Online Teaching

This style of online teaching can also be synchronous and
asynchronous. However, the context of the syllabuses can be suited
to learners‟ needs beyond the academic purposes. Skills sets, life-
long learning, extra-mural activities and personal development
education are all featured as teaching contents under this style of
online teaching.

| 26

COMING SOON:

2. The 13 Facets of Online Teaching

Online learning is run not only based on the contents or syllabuses,
it is also based on the delivery methods and also on the person on
the front-end who teaches.

As a result, online teaching can be performed from different teaching
angles:

Instructor
Coach
Facilitator
Counselor
Tutor
Trainer
Expert Adviser
Writer
Speaker
Commentator
Documentarian
Anchor
Mentor

| 27

COMING SOON:

It is true. You have the longing to improve your life status by
earning residual recurring money. We know how desparate you are
in this regard and, therefore, we must not forget to warn you of the
fallacies surrounding you not taking necessary actions.

We have found out that top among the myths draining the energy of
those teachers who are still waiting to start teaching on the Internet
are:
 Lack of technical and marketing skill.
 Lack of teaching experience and qualification.
 Believing that teaching online is demanding.
 Thinking that teaching is not interactive enough.
 Believing that the Internet is special and that it is for special
people or professional educators.
 Fear of the unknown territory.
 Huge amount of money to start.

To be honest with you, you do not need to be a computer guru or an
Internet marketing guru to start teaching online. In terms of the
requiremetns for technical knowledge, expereince and qualification,
please refer to the reasons why you can make it with online teaching
as presented earlier in this orientation guide.

We shouldn‟t call you along to making money on the Internet and at
the same time leave you with wrong beliefs and thoughts. Not only
because we have gathered the evidence online, but also because we
have practically built the experience for some years, the Internet
money making is greatly misunderstood by many people looking at
the impression of it by those who are yet to be there.

| 28

COMING SOON:

To be candid, the Internet is not for special people and working
online is not as demanding as you might have taken it to be. Also, it
is more interactive than how many people hold it. Of course,
teaching online is very interesting.

What of the fear of getting to an unknown territory (the Internet) and
general negative feelings that serve as hinderances for you to
kickstart teaching online? What of the outlook you have that your
presence on the online teaching arena will cost you a lot of money?

These are the answers:

We want to first anwer the last question that you can start with
nothing than. ...with no kobo down. Internet teachng and learning
services are numerous and there are usage plans ranging form zero
to even three figures in amount of money. One can start small, free
and easily.

Once you have chosen what and how you want to teach to get paid,
you are free to choose between free and paid platforms and services
to get started.

Now to the matter of dabbling on what you don‟t know about (the
Internet). This is likeable to any other things in life that we have to
learn.

We were beginners on the Internet too.

Millions of people doing one thing or the other now on the Internet
too were beginners. None was born with internet skills. Nobody was

| 29

COMING SOON:

born an online teacher just as no one was born a computer engineer
or an Internet marketer. Everyone learns and follows the procedures
and rules and even if you are a pure beginner, you to can learn to
earn more money.

Do you remember the fact that starting and doing something makes
it softpedalled. As pointed out above, it requires common computer
and browsing skills to start teaching on the Internet, once one has
identified a niche with huge number of potentials buyers or clients.

One important thing to know is that there are wealth of activities so
viable to help you create incomes non-stop. Another important thing
to note is that there are wealth of information and resources with
those who have been there – information and resources which is
sought from them can make your journey so pleasant and fast. You
will not need to reivent the wheels and you will also not make the
mistakes they have made.

As we have just said you must know your niche. Teachers niche is
teaching. Making money on the Intenet has been around for years
but almost nothing was done to carry the teachers along in Nigeria.

This is the firt time teachers in Nigeria are being openly called along
for Internet teaching. Let‟s us tell you that the only way to unplug
yourself from all odds that have been holding you down is to take
the next step by starting out with online teaching.

Teaching on the Internet is still hot. However, it takes passion,
dedication, drive, tenacity, self-belief, right attitude and readianess
to learn new things for a teacher to teach online profitably.

CONCLUSION

We hope that we have familiarized you, through the information
provided on the preceeding pages of this guide, with the existing
opporuinity in online teaching.

We know ourselves that the information proivided are only onthe
„WHAT‟ teaching on the Internet – not the HOW at all. In other
words, we have only attempted giving you the SMALL ANSWER to
the “how-can-I...” we presented above. It remains the BIG ANSWER.

Honestly, there is an hard truth we have not told you yet. The truth
is that attempting to teach on the Internet is not as straight forward
as painted throughout this guide. Beyond the rudiments, there are
learning curves to be mastered in other to really enjoy teaching
online right from the beginning. The following page hands out to
you the next life-changing step you will take...

COMING SOON:

Join other teachers and other
interested individuals soon

practically go beyond the “WHAT”
to the “HOW” of teaching and
making money on the Internet.
