Hello Instructor Community! 

 

Happy World Teachers’ Day! Established in 1994 and celebrated annually on October 5, World Teachers’ Day marks the date that the UNESCO/ILO recommendations were adopted which established standards for education professionals. 

 

We partnered with several Udemy Instructors to put together this quick video celebrating you and all that you do for your learners!

 

And now onto the giveaway….

To celebrate World Teachers’ Day, we are giving away Udemy t-shirts to the first 10 instructors who answer a daily prompt from October 5-7. During the celebration period, a daily prompt will be posted at a random time. The first 10 instructors to respond to the prompt will get a t-shirt (unless you've already received one this period). Limit one person. Offer valid while supplies last.



Today’s prompt: What made you decide to become an online instructor at Udemy?

Teaching is my passion and I love teaching.

Online teaching helped me to teach students all over the globe.

Thanks to Udemy for providing an amazing platform for teachers to teach students across the globe.

My teaching helped a lot of students to get knowledge and jobs - this is my motivation

To provide free education to students especially poor students and as Udemy has its reach worldwide, it promted us to join Udemy. 

I want to teach and train people in spiritual, psychological and physical sciences so that people can live their best lives in a world that can be confusing, depressing and dangerous. I do this from a Third world/First world cultural view as a Black Southern/Urban based elder Womanist so that I can help bring Divine liberation and Divine empowerment and protection to the oppressed, beaten down and ignored populations of this world society. That's why I'm here.

I wanted to multiply my impact by teaching my knowledge to other engineers, while having the freedom to create what I want, when I want.

Looks like I didn't make it in the first 10, oh well:)

For me it was the idea of accompanying Udemy in the democratization of education. To make specialized knowledge available to anyone who has the desire to excel at affordable cost.

 

I was also very motivated by the idea of being an evangelist of the energy transition to a carbon neutral future.

 

Society needs people who understand the transformation process in which we find ourselves.

I am a researcher and forecaster. I was looking for a platform where I can present my discoveries to the world. Udemy helped me to broadcast my inventions by providing such a wonderful platform. Knowledge + a wonderful well-equipped platform to deliver my discoveries helped me to become a teacher.

Love and blessings

TBH I was enrolled as a student learning web development and dreamt of getting employed with some skills. I realised I needed money to buy more courses because I love Udemy courses and cannot keep asking money at home.  I decided to share my accounting knowledge which I gained from maintaining accounts of my family business. All I wanted was to earn few bucks and pay for my expense coz I've been unemployed for long time and earnings from Udemy kept me afloat and helped me gain some respect at home. I'm not bluffing or trying to gain sympathy but actual facts. As a student too I'm grateful of Udemy for bringing good quality courses and I'm learning valuable skills and also making some bucks as well. Thanks for creating Udemy.
