What are the benefits of teaching the "Feed a Family" Classes

2008-12-03T13:07:00.002-08:00

Earn $10 - $200/hour Teaching FAF Classes/Workshops
Part time, Flexible schedule
YOU decide when you want to teach AND
How much you want to teach
Independent Teacher – Not employed by me
Tuition and Training: $300
($10/month if necessary)

Receive compensation in a variety of ways!

Income from teaching a 1-hour class in 4 weeks. When I teach classes, I only teach on a commission basis and I would help you get set up the same way. So if you have 10 students in a class and you get 60% of the revenue and the class costs $35. Total revenue: $350. Your compensation would be: $210 OR
$52.50/hour
for a 4 hours of teaching. I’ve had a lot more students in a class but I want to be more conservative right now.

Income from teaching a 1-hour class in 8 weeks. I am finding that it is better to offer an 8-week course with 1 hour/week than a four-week, 1 hour/week course. More people generally sign up for the longer course and you end up making stronger friendships that last longer, which will help you in the long run. For example, I had more students join my Garden Group last summer because of a longer course I taught. With 20 students paying $40 for the course, total income: $800. Your compensation is $480 or
$60/hour.

Income from teaching a one-time 3-hour workshop – $45/person. Even with only 4 people attending (total income: $180), you earn $108 for 3 hours, or
$36/hour.

Income from teaching a one-time 90-minute workshop – Some workshops we charge $5/person for a 90-minute workshop. The store manager will give me the total money in return for me promoting at least 10 products in his store. We have 12 people attend. Total income for me $60 for the workshop or
$40/hour.

Income from “Grocery Shopping Mentoring” Program. Take students shopping for 90 minutes. Charge $10/person for taking students shopping. Children are not invited to these events.

Extra income from selling class materials – You will receive class materials (books, DVD’s, etc.) for a discounted rate to sell to your students for a profit.

Income from recruiting other Feed a Family teachers – In every class you teach, let you students know that I am looking for additional teachers. When someone joins our team of teachers, you’ll receive a $50 bonus.

Income from teaching Kids in the Kitchen Cooking Classes (optional) – Same basic income as stated above. The Kids Cooking Classes are VERY popular. There aren’t very many Kids Healthy Cooking Classes offered!

What is a "Feed a Family of Four on $160/month" Class

2008-12-03T13:07:00.001-08:00

2008-12-01T17:28:00.000-08:00

I'm setting this teaching program up this way so you make more money AND you don't become an employee of mine. It's too complicated working and teaching with the schools to be employed by me. When you teach for the school thru community ed, you would be an employee of the school district.

So with that said, this is what I'm looking for when it comes to the teachers that I will train.

You would teach my signature class, Feed a Family of Four on $160/month. There is a confidenciality agreement that is required. This keeps teachers from going out and stealing my materials and my program.

Your work schedule is completely flexible. Teach only a few hours a week if you like or more if you want and teach when you want to teach. There are, of course, certain times that will draw in more students than other times.

The income I've been earning (and the way I would make sure you get set up to teach) is generally ranging between $36 - $60 per hour on average. Sometimes I get paid a lot more than that and now and then I get paid less. There are certain things that most people don't know in order to get paid that kind of money and that is part of the training I would give you.

The 2 things I want most from my teachers that I train will be:

1) Promote my Feed a Family Tips Group ($10/month subscription)

2) Look for additional teachers to teach my program in their own communities.

I am looking for teachers who have a passion for wanting to save money and eat healthier and want to teach and be part of our leadership group.

Detailed training will be given to each teacher and getting them set up the right way to help them make the most money. It will include everything they need to teach a class/workshop including curriculum and teaching materials, etc. It doesn't include food supplies or appliances but that doesn't have to be part of every class.

There is still a cost of $75 (which doesn't need to be paid immediately but within the next 30 days) by the potential teacher and then you would EARN the remaining $225 balance by:

From the classes/workshops you teach,

1) Find students who would like to become a teacher for my program (you receive a $35 credit per each new teacher you find)

2) Find students who are interested in signing up for the Feed a Family Tips Group. ($5 credit per new subscriber)

You would earn those credits when students sign up. Once the $225 is paid in full, you would continue to get paid those same commissions for finding additional people for me. Besides the income you get from teaching, you would earn this additional income.

Teachers will trained for the 4 AND 8 week Feed a Family classes (1 hour/week) and also a 3-hour workshop (like Gygi's) and also a 90 minute one-time workshop.

I know you will also SAVE more money since you will internalize the things you teach others, benefiting you and your little family even more. That's what has happened to me over the past 7 years!

Each one of these classes or workshops has income benefits and will draw certain types of students.

That's the plan in a nut shell. Let me know if you are interested. If you aren't, I completely understand.
