Is creating an online course for me?

Take the quiz and find out!

Do you have any hobbies, passions, or interests outside of writing?

Yes, I have one or several really weird hobbies that I am passionate about.
I used to, but I really don’t have time.
No, I only have time for work and writing, but I am passionate about those two things.
Not really

Correct!

Incorrect.

Do you like to share your passion?

Yes! In fact I already coach or teach people in it, either formally or informally.
I love it and I wish I could, but I am shy/ don’t want to bore people.
I would, but I don't think I'm qualified.
NO. That would ruin my enjoyment.

Correct!

Incorrect.

Are you a self-starter?

Yes. Definitely, at least I am when I’m motivated.
Sometimes, but sometimes I need some support.
I always need to have my butt kicked so I would say that no, I’m not a good self-starter.
I would rather take orders or be assigned to something, or not have to do things at all.

Correct!

Incorrect.

Do you like to learn new things?

Always. It’s what I love about writing, in fact.
Yes, but sometimes I feel like I just don’t have the bandwidth or the attention span.
At this point in my life I’m more about growing ever more specialized, not sure whether that is a good or bad thing.
Not really, I know as much as I need to know right now.

Correct!

Incorrect.

Have you taught before in any capacity?

Actually, I have! Or I do! Professor, coach, tutor, or counselor.
Not exactly, but I do or have trained people at work.
No, I'm not sure I have what it takes. But... I do have kids/pets does that count?
No. I'm not that interested.

Correct!

Incorrect.

Are you comfortable with basic technology?

I hold my own, plus I am good at web design and/or graphic design.
I can Google my way to proficiency in most cases unless it is really too complicated.
Not really, but at least I attempt to stay current on hoe the basic stuff works so I don’t fall hopelessly behind.
No. I am a Luddite and proud of it. Tech will be our downfall.

Correct!

Incorrect.

Do you have an author platform?

Yep. Website, social media, mailing list, you name it…
I do, but it needs serious help.
I'm lame. I don’t have a website, but I do have lots of social media followers, but that’s only cause it’s fun for me.
Author platform? I am a writer, not a marketer. My publisher will promote my work so I don’t need to.

Correct!

Incorrect.

Do you have an idea of who you would want to teach?

Yes. I have a specific type of person in mind who could benefit from learning what I have to teach.
Kind of. I can think of several types of person that I might be able to impact but I’m not sure how.
I would love to teach everyone and anyone, but don't know how.
I can certainly think of who I WOULDN’T want to teach!

Correct!

Incorrect.

Do you have an idea of a subject that you would like to teach?

Yes, doing this quiz and looking at your website, my idea is starting to get even more precise.
I do have some ideas but I don’t really know if they’re great and which one to choose.
I don’t really have an idea, but this teaching thing does sound intriguing. Not sure it's for me, though.
Nope. I don’t want to waste valuable writing time.

Correct!

Incorrect.

What is your goal with teaching online?

To effect positive change, to touch more people than ever, to earn extra income, and to grow my author platform.
To share my knowledge… maybe even while making extra cash, but I have no idea how to start.
To make money fast!
Honestly I don’t really have any online teaching goals. This is not for me.

Correct!

Incorrect.
