Join the 'Cloud-Tutor' course to learn how to teach multiple language students effectively using just your smartphone in under an hour a day.
This course teaches you how to become a 'Cloud-Tutor', allowing you to teach hundreds of language students online in just one hour a day, using platforms like Soundcloud to make the process smooth and simple.
Become a "Cloud-Tutor" and learn to teach hundreds of paying language students in less than one hour a day.
Wouldn't it be nice to privately tutor hundreds of languages students from anywhere in the world in less than one hour a day using just your Smartphone?
Impossible...right? Even 5 private students would mean running all over town 7 days a week to meet appointments and still make barely enough money to pay rent. You could try Skype tutoring, but you'd still eat up your days re-scheduling cancelled appointments and creating activities to fill up the hours of face-time you have to spend with students.
Well thanks to the social web revolution, the old ways of teaching language have become obsolete. In this “How to Start a Tutoring Business” course, you will learn about the "Cloud-Tutoring" system Idahosa Ness uses to manage over 500 hundreds language students in less than one hour a day with his "Flow Series Courses."Â
The system is centered around the sound-hosting service, Soundcloud. Soundcloud allows us to structure meaningful conversations around sound. More specifically, it allows you as an educator to give valuable personal instruction to your students in a streamlined manner and on your own schedule.
So throw out that scheduler join the league of profitable and location-independent "Cloud-Tutors” and learn how to start a tutoring business.

Yes, definitely this course is a great match for me.
This course introduced me to an area of language teaching that I didn't know anything about, so that was good, and I appreciate his patience in the explanations and demonstrations.
For the concepts presented I gave this course a 3.5. But, the course is outdated and the teacher no longer provides support. I see questions that haven't been answered for 4 years. The instructor's site cloudtutorlanguage.com no longer exists.
What does the course teach? How to incorporate online, voice-recording technology into teaching languages. This approach eliminates the need to schedule meeting times between student and teacher. However, it also eliminates the spontaneous interaction also. That is not necessarily bad. I can see how some topics could benefit from this approach.
The proposed model is a flat-rate cost, below that of individual tutoring, to teach English with fixed objectives and a complete online course to be written ahead of time. The student completes the lessons and then sends voice recordings to the teacher for guidance.
Soundcloud is used with a monthly cost if usage rises above the limits of the free plan. One could follow the general plan of this course and use other free voice recording software.
More examples of how a language is taught solely through written lessons and voice recording would have been nice to have.
The course has been worth my time for the concepts but, not for current applications.
Exceptional content. Clear, well-organized, innovative, and packed with ideas from an experienced language tutor. Thank you!
Excellent so far. Would be nice to keep course up to date on Soundcloud changes.
The course is outdated.
The content could be explained a bit better.
Lots of useful information and insights
This is a genius idea! I've been trying to find a way to engage with my students without having to do 1-1 tutoring all the time and this is the answer I've been looking for. The course is easy to follow and I'm very happy to have found this course. Thank you!
This course has been great so far. It provides lots of interesting ways to improve one's teaching and business approach through the internet. Just isn't updated yet for some changes to technology, specifically the Soundcloud dropbox feature. Idahosa is a very precise and detailed instructor, easy to listen to and follow his classes. I enjoy them.

This is a great course, very well-organized and straightforward. Every section of it is a useful skill on its own.
