2 Q: What video call methods can we use?
A:

Since this is an online platform, we refer to the "Classroom Option" as the video call method.

You have to set at least 1 "Classroom Option" on every Course that you activate.
Use a "Classroom Option" that you are familiar with and love using.

Currently you can choose from the following:
- Zoom,
- FaceTime,
- macOS Screen Sharing,
- Google Meet,
- MS Teams, and
- StreamYard.

When a Student books your Course, they can only select 1 Classroom Option from the ones you have set.
You can choose to share your screen sharing but our recommendation for "screen sharing" is Zoom.
Note that you, the Teacher, must have a paid subscription with Zoom in order to teach 1-hour Sessions. You can set multiple "Classroom Options" as a strategy to reach a larger audience if you are willing to use these Classroom Options.

Good to know:
Students can search Courses based on these Classroom Options.

1 Q: Will Students message me before they buy my Course?
A:

No. Out of the question.

Why not?
When you are an approved 5StarTeacher on our platform, your profile, your Courses, and your videos have been thoroughly screened and checked by our Team. The "5star" part in our name is congruent with our commitment: to always deliver high quality and great value. We don't want anyone to waste your time. And therefore we do things differently.

Your "paid" Single-session Course is the best opportunity to show your Students what value you have to offer and the best opportunity for them to experience you as a teacher, coach, consultant or expert in the field.

So make sure that you have created a 5-star value Course with an attractive title, a concise and clear Course description and a confident Course Introduction Video which will function as your sales pitch. And if that is all 5-star quality, it will be approved by our Team and we're sure Students will take your Courses.

No back-and-forth sales conversations before they buy on our platform.
They either buy, or they don't. Just like on Amazon.
