TeachStreet 101 Video Tutorial: Requesting Reviews

If there was one thing you can do on TeachStreet, as a teacher, to help boost your profile, requesting reviews from your past students would be it. We try to provide our community with a lot of information about classes and teachers, so having testimonials from past students definitely help the cause.

Once you get a couple great reviews under your belt, you will instantly get more recognized in the TeachStreet community depending on how competitive your category is.  You’ll get higher placement in search results and you have the opportunity to become a “Featured Teacher” or “Top Teacher” for your category (ie. Pottery Community), as well. Here’s a quick video of how to request reviews from past students:
