Frequently asked questions
What experience do you seek in potential instructors?
Right now we're especially looking for instructors with experience in localization sales and multilingual DTP. However, we welcome experts in other areas of localization too. If you have valuable knowledge in any aspect of the field, we'd love to hear from you.
How does payment work for instructors?
Instructors are compensated through a revenue share model. While there's no immediate payment for the initial course development, you'll benefit from a share in the course's ongoing revenue.
I'm new to online teaching. Can I still contribute?
Absolutely! Remember, every expert once started as a beginner. Our team is here to assist and walk you through each step, ensuring you gain valuable experience along the way.
Can you walk me through the process of course creation?
Certainly! Begin with a high-level curriculum draft. You'll then fully flesh out a lesson and showcase it in a mock session. This step aids in determining our mutual fit.
Your course first airs live for an audience, followed by the development of a pre-recorded format. Your role? Shine in front of the camera. Ours? Ensuring everything runs smoothly from there.
How much time does it typically take to create a course?
Our instructors usually juggle this alongside their full-time roles. So, if you're in a similar boat, you might need about 5 weeks to reach the mock session, another 10 weeks to set the stage for the Live course, and then a stretch of 2 to 3 months to craft the pre-recorded course, all fitted into those spare hours.
It takes effort, but the results are worth every bit.
