"Am I APPEALING to MOTHERS?"

Most of my booked classes online are kiddies lately. I had noticed that some mothers show the interest of seeing me while teaching their kids. I felt flattered when they sometimes take some photos of me. It is strictly a video class. At times, I was thinking that selling myself virtually is starting to pay off. It is an edge that I can have more booked classes. I hope their husbands will not get jealous.

It is indeed flattering. But I ignore it sometimes. It wasn't my duty to entertain mothers.

Just as long as the kids benefit from it.

I agree. I always make sure that professionalism is being practiced during the class. Even if the mothers are quite inappropriate when showing their endearing gestures.

What kind of courses do you teach online that you get a lot of kids?

I teach the English language based on their levels. I am a well-round teacher online, my friend.

@cintol I personally think that I needed to do it. For the reasons that it is my source of income.

Hehehe I am so careful. Most of the classes online are recorded. Unless the students will be provocative, then they can hear some striking comments.

@Shavkat it is always good to be presentable online, right? i hope kabsat, that you won't be tempted to accept any messages from the mothers of your pupils.

@ridingbet I never entertain such messages, especially from the mothers. They can make a story to the company and I'll be in deep trouble. In fact, it is a big NO for us to communicate with them without any lessons.

That is fantastic! How did you get into this? How do you talk to several students at one time? What do you teach?

I am a home-based English teacher, my friend. I am using the company's software and teach the online students the English language.

I must admit that I had seen some husbands quite irritated when the mothers are trying to connect virtually. But I don't mind. Work is work.

Nope. Considering where I'm from, I'd be really worried if they are planning to sue me or if my face will show up in the news for all the wrong reasons

You have a point. I never entertain such gestures from the mothers. It strictly works and needs to practice professionalism at all times.

I agree. There is another story. There are some divorcees that show flirt act.

If their child gets special attention, you have won more than half the battle. Evil Grin. If only Pony could take a cue from you...we could enjoy teasing him rotten.

I agree. It is very rewarding to capture their attention. It wasn't easy but I need to do my best. Some of my co-teachers virtually cannot stay long because they can't find ways to deal with kiddies.

Indeed, my friend. It was a long journey to get the main track in teaching kiddies.

@Shavkat I am glad you are a hit with the mothers because then they will let you teach their kids. I guess if I smile a lot people will be pleased with me if I want that. I guess I would have to try and do what you do to let them take pictures of me so I can continue to teach their kids.
