I currently work at a foreign trading company. A friend of mine at the company referred me to a Japanese couple working in international sales at another company. I met with them in person and they want to take private online zoom lessons with me focusing on business English. They will each take one lesson a week, separately, paying ¥5500 for 40 minutes (free zoom account limit). They offered the rate and I just accepted since it seemed fine at the time. The total would be ¥44,000 a month.
I’ve never taught English since living here, but looking at the textbooks they want to use and the teacher’s books accompanying them (they purchased used copies for me on Mercari), I feel I can “teach” them what they want to know. They did a trial lesson together using the first page of the textbook with me at a cafe near my office and they enjoyed it.
With this rate, is it too high? Low?
Any tips on how I should approach the online lessons?
