Michael Hodosh, aka Dr. Michael, is a 49-year-old clinical psychologist who is shifting his focus from face-to-face counseling to counseling online.

He’s making a lot more money online in a lot less time. And he feels he is able to help people more than he can many times in face-to-face conventional systems.

You can do the same! 

Dr. Michael does his work through Kasamba, newly acquired by Live Person.

There are dozens of online marketplaces like the one Mike is using. More are springing up every week. And people who can see new possibilities are starting to transition their counseling and life coaching practices from conventional face-to-face settings to working online through these marketplaces.

In fact, Dr. Michael is one of over 30,000 professionals registered at Kasamba (now Live Person) to help people find solutions to their most pressing problems.

With a doctorate in psychology and training as a coach through CTI, Mike currently earns from $5-6K a month in as little as 80 hours a month providing direct service to people who contact him at Kasamba, or through one of the other online profiles he maintains.

Over the course of his career, Mike has developed expertise in post-traumatic stress, shame, guilt, self-esteem, relationships, depression, anxiety, various forms of addiction, schizophrenia, and other kinds of psychotic disorders.

One of his greatest strengths is knowing how to make people feel comfortable talking about things they might never have talked about before.

Listen to Dr. Michael talk about how he’s leveraging his strengths and the resources available at Kasamba (now Live Person) to make more money in less time while helping people across the globe. You can do the same!

Listening to Mark Cruthers talk about his experience teaching AP History online to a group of homeschoolers, what comes up for you?

If you haven’t yet heard this interview, see previous post to listen: “How to Make an Extra $25,000 A Year Teaching A Few Homeschoolers Online.”

The WizIQ free virtual classroom, Elluminate, Kasamba, Moodle, and the new tutoring environment at LearnHub are opening doors to brand new possibilities for teachers - of all kinds - and learners - of all ages.

We truly CAN teach and learn whatever we want, anywhere and anytime we’re ready.

Some of us want to enjoy this freedom now. But there’s way too much information to decide where to start.

We want reliable tools and strategies that will work for each of us. And we’re different.

I’m recommending that clients use these 9 questions to chart their own best course:

1. What do you want to learn live - and online - with others?

2. What could you teach in a free virtual classroom?

3. What would be the most fun to teach and learn with a group of people with whom you’re not co-located?

4. What might you need to translate about the way you work face-to-face so that you can create a trusting, vital, collaborative learning relationship with others in a virtual classroom or office?

5. What will you need from live teachers and co-learners for you to achieve your best performance?

6. What kind of help do you want navigating collaboratively with others? What would you prefer to explore alone?

7. What other questions come up for you when you think about teaching and learning whatever you want online?

8. Where and how will you evaluate the answers you find?

9. When would now be a good time to start experimenting with some new possibilities?

As you consider these questions, please choose one or more of them and share your thoughts and feelings below using text.

Alternately, you can share your thoughts using your microphone, telephone, or webcam on THIS VOICETHREAD.

Soon, I will convene a live session, using WizIQ, where we can explore our thoughts and share our experiences in this brave new world of live, online teaching and learning.

Watch this space for an announcement of the date and time.
