Thanks, Sandra, for the chance to share with your readers about [2] http://MuchEnough.com.

At MuchEnough, we believe that everyone has specialized knowledge that is valuable to someone else at the right moment.  Whether it’s your first (or second or third!) language, knowledge of your local geography or history, a skill you picked up at school, at work or through life experience, someone needs to know what you know, and they need to know it now!  If only they could find you…

MuchEnough.com is a worldwide venue that helps people find the right person with the right skills.  Simply schedule time and set payment for the online training/coaching sessions.  While the site itself is in English, we support posts in any language and character set.  It’s is free to join and use for students and instructors. The company pays its bill by charging a small commission fee to instructors when a paid subject is sold through the site.  However, there’s the option to offer free classes.

MuchEnough allows instructors to describe their class, create a profile,  set their availability, and set their fees if any.   The site allows students to search subject listings, schedule time with instructors, and meet and pay online.  To use MuchEnough as an instructor, you register, create a profile page, indicate your availability, and create “subjects” describing what you teach.  On each subject page, you can add resources and learning activities, attach photos, YouTube videos, PDF documents and text.

The goal is to provide a genuinely useful description of your class subject that highlights your knowledge and primes potential students for further discussion online.  We make sure your subject pages are optimized for search engines, so students searching for your information can locate you!  MuchEnough also uses twitter, facebook, and blog posts to promote specific subjects (see @MuchieFirehose on twitter).

Your students can contact you through the site by leaving you a question, scheduling a meeting, or providing community feedback ratings.  MuchEnough meetings can be held using our integrated audio/video chat rooms, via Skype or any other tool you find useful.  The site lists various screen sharing, whiteboard, collaborative editing, and co-browsing tools to incorporate into your session.  We also offer training in each of these tools to get you started (arrange an orientation session).

So, what would you teach?  Please check us out at [3] http://muchenough.com  or find us on twitter @MuchEnough or facebook at [4] http://www.facebook.com/pages/muchenough.com/15237708111137?sk=wall.  We’d love to have you join our growing community.  Let us know how to adapt MuchEnough to your specific needs.  Be your own boss, set your own prices, and have fun teaching online!

Thanks,

Dave Rogers
