How teaching online can increase career and income opportunities for educators
According to Department of Education research there are almost 1.8 million homeschooled (1,773,000 in 2012) students between the ages of 5 and 17 years old in the United States. That number continues to increase, growing by 61.8% between 2003 and 2012. With 24/7 digital classrooms, teachers have an opportunity to impact the lives of these children directly, while creating additional revenue and taking control of their career.
Opportunities for Teachers
Modern technology bridges financial, time and geographic gaps that hindered after-hours tutoring and instruction a few decades ago. With online learning platforms, educators and students can connect from anywhere there is an internet connection, whenever it is convenient or expedient.
Whether a student has fallen behind due to illness or excessive absences, or a teacher wants to work with a motivated homeschool family preparing their child for college entrance exams, 24/7 digital classrooms deliver custom solutions to meet the challenges.
Starting an online school may seem like a daunting task, but today it is easy, and cost effective, for educators and parents. And, some children who struggle in traditional classroom settings thrive in a one-on-one virtual environment. Teachers enjoy the flexibility to design a curriculum specifically targeted toward diverse learning styles without investing in expensive software, hardware and teaching aids.
Expanding Learning Opportunities For Non-Traditional Students
Education enlarges a child's territory with new concepts, experiences, and challenges that prepare him or her for the future. The role of adults is providing opportunities to expand the world in a safe, challenging environment that encourages each child to pursue learning at their own pace.
When you work with a platform like 24/7 Digital Classroom, you set the schedule based on your students' readiness and skill level. There are fundamental advantages for teachers who want to increase their income while improving learning outcomes.
