If any of these are missing, your course is saved as a draft and you’ll see exactly what to add.
- At least 8 lessons and 60 minutes of teaching. Uploaded videos set their own length; for YouTube or Vimeo links, fill it in.
- Every lesson has a video, written notes, a practice quiz or a file (such as a PDF worksheet).
- At least 1 free preview lesson, so students can see how you teach before they pay.
- Paid lessons use uploaded videos, so students can watch but not download them. A YouTube or Vimeo link is allowed only for a free preview lesson.
- A clear description of at least 200 characters, and at least 3 things students will be able to do by the end.
- A course image that shows what the course is about.
Live courses (classes only, no recorded lessons) don’t need the lesson, minutes, preview and lesson content checks. Instead they need at least one live class planned on the Live classes page (the class link can be added later), an intro video (a short free preview lesson about the course, uploaded or as a YouTube or Vimeo link), plus the description, the 3 things students will learn and a course image. The classes must fit in the course length: a course that says 6 weeks can’t have classes running over 8 weeks.
Checked by our team
- Video is at least 720p, or a clear screen recording, and text on screen can be read on a phone.
- Sound is clear, without loud background noise or music over your voice.
- The course teaches what its title and description promise. For school and exam courses, lessons follow the syllabus for the class and board you chose.
- Notes, worksheets or practice questions are included where they help, especially for school and exam courses.
- The language you chose is the language you teach in.
- Everything is your own work, or you have the right to use it. No re-uploaded YouTube videos, copied academy lectures or pirated books.
- No promises of guaranteed marks, jobs or income, and no pressure selling inside lessons.
After your course goes live
- Keep the course up to date when the syllabus, a tool or a platform changes.
- Changes to a live course are checked again by our team.
- We may take a course down if students report serious problems or it stops meeting these standards.
Before your first course can go live, we also verify who you are. See the teacher terms, or start teaching.
