Since EnglishEverywhere started as an online school we have conducted more than 500 interviews and meetings with new teachers who are really trying to discover and learn all about one-on-one online lessons. Some teachers can adjust their classroom teaching experience to online teaching easily and quickly, However, most teachers had never thought about what online teaching really is and they just brought their classroom teaching style to online lessons. This resulted in many students not feeling any benefit from taking online lessons with those teachers.

The purpose of this eBook is not to recruit teachers to specific online schools. Our aim in creating this eBook is to share the knowledge of online teaching to decrease the number of unhappy teachers and frustrating lessons. We believe that this eBook will also be beneficial for teachers who have already experienced online lessons but who haven't been able to continue long term student-teacher relationships because of various reasons, such as not having had enough time to adapt their teaching style to the online environment. Difficult situations can arise when there are disagreements in what students expect from online lessons and what teachers actually do during their lessons.

In this eBook you'll learn basic knowledge about online teaching: optimum computer environment, software to use, tips on essential teaching skills, working for an online school or setting up independently, and fundamental things to remember for online teaching. You'll be able to provide thoughtful and interesting online lessons to students and can be confident about what to do and not do in your future lessons.

Conclusion


Reader's voice
I decided to turn to online teaching when I became pregnant with my daughter last year. Being a bit of a technophobe, I was nervous about how to adapt my classroom experience to the online environment. This book gave me a lot of good practical tips about how to prepare and to make effective use of my computer for online teaching. It also gave some invaluable ideas about how to develop and maintain good relations with my online students. I would recommend it as a very useful read for anyone considering turning to online EFL teaching.

I have been teaching English online for more than two years. After reading this ebook about Online Teaching, I changed my techniques. This ebook has dramatically improved the way I teach English Online. My students noticed it right away. One of my students told me Online learning is so much better than learning the old-fashioned way (in a classroom).

I have been teaching in classrooms for about four years and recently I decided to start thinking about teaching online but was not sure if I would be skilled enough. I found your eBook on online teaching to be informative, easy to read, and understandable with some useful tips about what to do and not do in online lessons. I particularly found Section 8 (on things to keep in mind when teaching online) to be particularly useful as I can easily refer back to the tips given.
I now feel confident that teaching online is something I can do and I look forward to moving into this new style of teaching. Thank you.
