Teachers Earning Online: Opening New Opportunities for Teachers

New opportunity for teachers to achieve success
Teachers Earning Online: Opening New Opportunities for Teachers



Since the day we launched our Facebook page Facebook.com/teachersearningonline and our blog teacher-earning-online.blogspot.com, we have received numerous queries from interested teachers who are eager to join our site and offer their lesson plans. 

Many of them have inquired about whether there is a need to pay before they can register, how they will be able to sell their lesson plans and up to how many lesson plans they can upload to us. 
Initially, there will be no registration fees because it is for free.  So, teachers are advised to take advantage of the opportunity to register as soon as it is launched.  Once registered, teachers can upload as many lesson plans as they want and for different subjects.

Unfortunately, the site is not yet up since there are bugs that need to be fixed.  

However, recently, we received an email from Aaron Jed Tumbali, a teacher at St. Mary’s College and a Research Assistant who was inspired by the idea that Filipino teachers can now sell lesson plans.

In his email, he said: “This site is very interesting.  The idea of selling lesson plans is new in Philippine education.  This is an innovation that will put our education to a more globalized system.  I believe that this site will open new opportunities for teachers.  It will increase our awareness on the current trends in education. Let’s make this site a virtual place where knowledge and expertise are being shared to one another.  As teachers, we should welcome this kind of innovation to be updated in the digital era.  Effective and efficient teachers are the 21st Century teachers who have eagerness to learn new and different things.  We should remember that aside from our responsibility to teach students we also have the responsibility to help our colleagues in this profession.  Helping one another will help make a difference in our society.”

Thank you Jed for the kind words. We will strive to make the site and enhance its features so teachers can communicate and share their knowledge and expertise.
