NEW YORK, June 24 --
Encouraged by the ‘stupendous’ success of its teacher-student platform in India, TCYonline.com has taken a similar initiative in the US by opening new floodgates for teachers who can now supplement their income through online publishing.
“Relevant and original content brings students. For all those teachers/authors who have the capability to write questions can publish them through www.tcyonline.com and can generate a steady income,” said TCYonline.com CEO Kamal Wadhera at a teleconference here this morning, following the launch of the platform through an interesting competition for teachers.
“The basic objective of the contest is to give a huge repository of quality content to the students from different authors, as thousands of students are already visiting the site,” the CEO informed.
The key feature of this platform is, unlike conventional ways of publishing, now teachers can earn a life-long income by uploading their content on this web-portal. This unique concept is a real windfall for the teachers because they can now start earning through this website right from the day one as they can get their works published even if it is a couple of tests.
All a teacher has to do is upload his tests (minimum 25 multiple-questions) on the website. The uploading is a very simple process and any computer-savvy teacher can do it in a jiffy. The beauty of the whole exercise is, just with an effort of three-four hours on a single test, a teacher can make good money and can also keep track of his earnings in this very transparent platform.
This platform can be a dream-come-true for scores of teachers in this country nursing a secret desire to get their works published but never got a chance before. Thanks to this platform, now such teachers won’t be at the ‘mercy’ of conventional publishers. The online publishing has opened new vistas for them coast to coast in the US.
Now teachers don’t have to line-up in front of publishers, endlessly waiting for their content to be published. They don’t have to rush through deadlines, without any fear for rejection, and live in uncertainty for their fruits for labor to see the light of the day. Such teachers can now publish their content at their own pace, what they feel is the best for them, in the format they like, with a freedom to innovate at their own pace, and even partial work.
Among the benefits for the teachers include, ready-to-use useful resources that would aid their teaching methods, and provide a wonderful platform where they can interact with other teachers anywhere in the country. On top of that, they can create and share the content, and may even choose to draw financial benefits from the company’s soon-to-be-announced incentive model.
The tests can be on any subjects for K-12 students and some college entrance exams like GRE, GMAT, SAT or ACT, including State level exams.
It is worth noting that TCYonline.com already has over 115, 000 registered students and teachers.
If it’s a great income source for teachers, it is a boon for students too as the company wants to keep the basic services free.
Thanks to this student-teacher platform, the students would now be able to analyze and benchmark themselves with anybody and anywhere in this country. They can now interact with other students in discussion forums and deliberate on the tests online. Similarly, they can discuss their problems with the teachers who would guide them from time to time.
“There can’t be a better method through which a student can improve his grades. By doing these practice tests religiously, the students would be able to analyze themselves as to where they stand and thereby work on their grey areas,” Wadhera concluded on an optimistic note.
