Be coachable

Painless payments

Let me share my thoughts with you on why and how to collect payments in advance and what else you need to become trustworthy, so people aren’t worried to pay upfront to 'a complete stranger' when they're considering starting tuition with you.

Collaborate, don't compete

Collaborating is a simple yet powerful strategy that I've been using to help my work-life balance (and also because it comes naturally to me). I can 100% recommend it for everyone. A collaborative environment is always better than one where everyone ruthlessly competes. An example of how I collaborate is my Maths Match, where I share info about leads that I can't cater for personally.
