The Critical Misconception: You Can Submit ANY Video!
We need to make something VERY CLEAR. A common misconception is that tutors can only submit videos from TeachX sessions on the community. This is FALSE!
You are promoting your own business! You can submit any video or picture that showcases your profile, course, or event. It doesn't matter where the video is from.
- If you're at school, you can film your students (with consent).
- If you're tutoring privately, make videos with your clients.
- Videos can be anything: daily classes, testimonials, or even casual teaching moments. You never know what might go viral on social media!
No Students? No Problem!
If you think you can't create videos because you don't have students yet, think again! WRONG!
You can:
- Film yourself giving free educational resources.
- Make TikToks, Instagram Reels, or Stories.
- Create content on your social media and tag us—we repost everything you tag us in!
This is a video-sharing community, and we encourage you to get creative. It's not about perfect videos—it's about sharing!
Why Self-Promotion Matters
Self-promotion is key to standing out. By effectively marketing your skills and courses, you can:
- Increase your visibility on TeachX and beyond.
