‘This isn’t the right course for you, right… I will refund the $97’
‘No… no… It’s alright. You have already given me value from your free youtube videos. No one will do that much for free… I want you to have the $97.’
When I give, I give without hoarding. What I give, there is no teaser and then buy the remaining. No.
I do need an income for myself and my family – else I won’t be able to sustain the free work or value providing in any form. My people who learn from me for free or paid understand this – I know this from my years having taught and interacted online in different way.
For that, there are detailed, structured courses that go beyond the free videos. Free videos teach songs etc, show them beyond just look and repeat, how to improve technique and undrstanding of music.
Then, those who want to deepen, want to go further, be better, have clarity along with me helping them get better surer and faster…
… they take one of the different options based on their needs and budgets.
Whatever it be, the basic giving part remains.
Give for free what is to be done, even the overview of what needs to be done.
Decide what you want to give for free – then give as much as possible on that topic, to the extent that someone can really do it and make a difference.
Then there is always more to give, to teach… what cannot be done in a video or on youtube. That is made in detailed videos and resources.
“Your videos… I can only imagine the effort you took making these course videos… it is as if you are there, sitting right in front of me..” said one of my adult students who made very effective progress in a very short time and continuing.
Over the years,I have collected cases and samples. The usual problems and their answers. INstead of just giving what a google search can, I show them the real life issues and their solutions. I understand my students who use the videos. The usual pains and problems. That is why my videos are effective.
Any teacher who is really interested in being an effective influence in making the students like better and helping them reach the goal, need to take this effort.
It is not enough to corret the answer sheet and give marks on right and wrong. What did that student do, that didn’t work. What could be done different by that particular person with indiviual skills and goals?
Compile them … Make them available in detailed courses.
Students all over the world can use them after work or before work or after bringing children to school, wihtout depending on you, to make their life better.
idfferent levels can be provided. We will discuss them.
Also about detailed courses, how to install them, etc.
But, all should be guided by the basic ‘need to give’. To make the others’ life better and help them reach their happiness – without that one wont’ have enough energy to do the needed work.
