Want some advice regarding online teaching.

I'm stupendous in English and material science but I don't have any experience of teaching. Shall I give a try on this platform. I really need someone's advice.

Hi @ElianaC . Thanks for your help Eliana. I really appreciate your support and guidance. As per your suggestion I will really go for the steps you have mentioned. Once again thanks for your grateful and exuberant helping nature and encouraging me.

@Jayant2003 - Yes you should as long as you know what you are getting into. First of all, do your homework and make sure the course you want to create doesn't already have 100+ existing courses covering the topic. Otherwise it will be very difficult for your course to get noticed. Secondly, if your experience is like most instructors on Udemy, you will average no more than $1 to $5 earned for each sale of your course. Sometimes less than $1. Most new instructors have no idea about this.

If you want to create a course to try your hand at teaching and don't really care too much about how much money you might make, go for it. You will probably enjoy the experience. However, if you are doing this thinking you are going to make hundreds of dollars per month in the first year or two, there is a very high chance you will be greatly disappointed.
