Hello,
A language school offered me to pay them for the use of their classroom and teach my own students there. It's a very good offer if I manage to find students for group lessons.
But I never liked advertising myself and recently it's like some sort of phobia or social anxiety. I'm not a psychologist and these terms are confusing for me. Also, it would be funny if I didn't have to pay a debt. And I have a daughter too. Besides having to buy her food and clothes, I don't want her to think her dad is a good-for-nothing sloth.
I have some good recommendation from students and recently I was told during a skype lesson that I am a talented teacher. But advertising is indeed a problem. I don't know why. Am I afraid of having talking to strangers on the phone? It's kind of stressful, but not really bad. Comparing myself to other teachers? They always charge less or have better qualifications or more photogenic... arrgh.
You know, this is silly, but I will report here after I get the job done today.
And maybe you will give me some good advice for the future.
