As we know, many teachers are hesitant to charge more. Consider this: selling language lessons is rarely about language. It's about answering the "so you can" visualization. If you get a lot of price objections, you haven't answered the "so you can" properly. This is your value proposition. What your value proposition is not: - to improve your grammar - to communicate better - to be more confident These are not very valuable. Not on their own anyway. You have to discover the real benefit. Consider asking: - "what does improving your grammar allow you to do?" - "when you can communicate better, what opportunities will you have that you don't currently?" - "if you had more confidence, what would you do with that?" The answers to these questions are your value proposition. And why clients enroll in your course. To really get in deep with it, ask about the benefit of the benefit. If you realize the "so you can" frame, you can increase the value of your offer dramatically. Do you get many price objections on what you offer? How well would you say you understand the benefit of the benefit your clients are seeking?

Hi Everyone, I just wanted to share briefly some of my 'teaching philosophy' - This is from step 2 : As a language trainer, I'm constantly trying to pay attention closely to what truly goes on within my sessions. For example, learners' reactions to the chosen input, to my instructions, to the activities, to feedback, etc. This helps me adjust and re-adjust whatever seems to be keeping my learners from having learning experiences in my sessions. I do this with the aim of maximising 'learning opportunities' in the classroom - Now TBH... this is easier said than done! I normally achieve the above by implementing a continuous set of personalised and contenxtualised activities for my learners (engaging INPUT included) which are much more highly likely to push and encourage them not only to take risks themlselves so as to try out new ways of conveying meaning w/ the language, but also to apply and use their own (pre-exisiting) linguistic resources. In this way, learners tend to be more engaged, more willing to communicate 'purposefully' - enjoying their learning journey. Anyway, this is one of the ways I know my teaching has been somewhat effective.
