Your first step to a CEO mindset as a tutorpreneur is shedding any feelings of imposter syndrome. Imposter syndrome not only holds you back, but it perpetuates any negative beliefs that you can’t achieve your goals. I’m here to tell you that you not only can achieve your goals but you can also become the CEO of a thriving tutoring business.

All successful businesses set goals. You my Tutorpreneur friend, are no different! You have big dreams of a successful tutoring business that allows you the financial freedom you deserve. Maybe you’ll tutor full-time and can leave the classroom. Or maybe you can finally afford that trip to Italy you’ve been thinking about since you were in college. Or just maybe, you can get new tires on the van and send your kid to piano lessons.

Tutoring isn’t just a side hustle, it’s a job that you create the rules, hours and pay.

You’re using skills you already have from the classroom so there’s not a big learning curve or any crazy selling you need to do.

If you were a teacher in 2020, I’m saluting you right now. Back in March when we all thought this was going to be temporary, we set off to teaching virtually from our homes. There was no virtual teacher kit sent home with us. Our tools for online teaching consisted of things we could grab from our classrooms and spending our teaching salaries buying what we lacked at home.

This blog post is going to teach you how to brand your tutoring business like a boss so you can start earning money like a boss. Ya feel me? I think there’s a lot of misconceptions about branding your business. People tend to overly complicate the process which leads to overwhelm and lack of action. When we feel overwhelmed it's easy to hit the pause button on our dreams and say “I’ll do that later.” You are not that kind of Tutorpreneur! You have big dreams for yourself and nothing is going to get in your way.

When I first started my tutoring business, I had no idea what I was doing. Can you relate? It seemed like I could find bits and pieces of information on YouTube or blogs but nothing strung together to make sense of. I want you to come to this blog as a place of solace and find the information you need. I’ve compiled a list of 7 secrets to my own tutoring business and I’m sharing them with you!

This teacher gift guide is for the teacher who is working in person or online. Maybe you even want to start your own tutoring business!

If so, this is the right gift guide for you!

I’ve included tech tools that I use in my own classroom and tutoring business that I believe to be game changers when it comes to teaching.

If you were to ask me why I love tutoring so much, my answer would be it combines my favorite part of teaching (working with kids 1-1) and allows me to have control over how I make extra money.

I love working 1-1 with kids and really feeling the impact I’m making. And while I was dealing with behavior problems, I wasn’t getting to work 1-1 with kids that often. In fact, it forced me to do whole group lessons so I could try to reach everyone. I left each day feeling defeated and like I was making zero impact.

Starting an online tutoring business can be challenging, but with the right tips, you can set yourself up for success. In this blog post, we share three practical tips to help you get started on the right foot. From identifying your niche to marketing your services, we've got you covered.

I still remember the feeling I had when I got my first tutoring client.

I opened up an email and read “Hey, I remember you started a tutoring business. We are in need of a tutor for both kids. Are you interested?”

You know that heart-pounding, excited feeling you get when finally something goes your way?

I want that for you.
