Tell me if you would pay money to have an English as a Foreign

Language couch that teaches via web cam?
As I am thinking of how I will be able to work now with the coronavirus and social distancing happening. As since I have my Linguistics degree in would like to put it to use. My idea was to go to a foreign country to teach but I don't see it happening at this time.

Please let me know your thoughts on this.

    There are a lot of cheap online classes that we can take. Many philippinas do as around 2dollars per an hour.(and one on one) So it is hard for Americans making money considered from the rivals😅

    I prefer to learn it in a centre or school But I think it's good idea we have to try new things in life because Why not?

    Imo people would take the class according to the contents and a target learner of the class Philippine classes are cheap but some people prefer to learn American accent, which Philippine classes cannot satisfy

    I say go for it! Given the (lack of) alternative, it's still a good way to use your skills. And don't compete on price - they're cheap for a reason.

    @ No, will not compete on price but will have a planned curriculum and a target age and learner group at first.

    Ok, so my competition would be from people living in the Philippines. Thanks for this tip, as I would not have known that.

    As the old saying goes, you get what you pay for. So the first thing I will need to do is research this more so can find a medium ranged price. As well as appealing to the target group in lessons.

    @yo At this time the restrictions are too big for me to leave the US and teach. So, instead I need to think of alternatives for now.

    From what I've heard, there are tons of English classes online available due to COVID19 these days. I'd like to suggest that you should have your own specialty on your class, and aim the specific target not in general.

    My thoughts: Experience is a better teacher than a degree. Work for a year or two before deciding what is what with linguistics and language pedagogy.

    @Killian Experience is always a good teacher of everything. Why do you think that "with age comes wisdom"? On second thought never mind as I have seen people I think would have understood things but just ever got a clue to what they were doing. (My sarcastic side is out this morning, need some coffee)

    @Simply Kathy So... listen. Set aside the ego. First Principles. Tabula rasa. Think: How does Nature function vs how modern society functions?

    @Killian Oh, nature vs nurture... actually I believe humans are a little of both. As each person has a slightly different personality and view of life. So what we learn through experience as well as what we are taught makes us who we are now.
