Question For Fellow Teachers
I'm wondering how you manage the administrative part of group classes? I have seen teachers offering group classes on italki, but I don't understand how this works with students booking a lesson. The only thing I can think of is to have some hours available that students schedule, but aren't *really* the times - the time is in the group package description. This isn't really ideal. Any suggestions?I'm specifically asking about the scheduling through italki. I have some resources (Skype, Google Hangouts, Fuze) to manage this on the practical end, but scheduling through italki is a bit limited.

lana and fellow teachers, can anyone guide me in improving english???????

Answer

Excellent question, Lana. I didn't even know you could do group lessons on here. The only thing I can think is, as you say that you could book fictional times and then arrange separately with the students what time the lesson will actually take place.
