Online Course Creation: Complete Course of Blunders to Avoid (Udemy.com)

Exactly what I needed. Enthralling from the get-go. TJ makes the time to answer every students questions. provides resources including a Facebook Support group (in addition to the Q&A discussion page) and is engaged. You can tell he cares about his students and that is great for motivation. I highly recommend this course, and this instructor in particular.

I'm thinking to create a course and this really gave me an insight of this world. One suggestion: use any other background that you think is good instead of white. I'm watching this course at night and its not comfortable.

Contrary to some others, I liked the "old" background + his suit-and-tie. They gave the lessons a more serious atmosphere right from the start. The TV screen background wasn't distracting at all but instead provided some relief to the eyes when you need to look away rom the instructor for a few seconds. Some of the negative feedbacks might have originated from competing instructors trying to sabotage a good thing. This kind of behavior happens in real life all the time.

This bloke is unloading about his failures in his previous endeavours at course creation. Nothing yet about actual course creation content.

Mir hat besonders die Art des Sprechens (akzentfreies Englisch), die Beleuchtung und die Ruhe des Dozenten bei der Präsentation gefallen. Das Ganze wirkt sehr professionell. Ich habe nicht viel Neues gelernt, jedoch habe ich Bestätigungen für meine Pläne erhalten. Ich schätze außerdem die Offenheit und Ehrlichkeit des Dozenten, sofern ich sie einschätzen kann, das macht das Ganze glaubwürdig für mich. Er ist als Person der professionellste Dozent, den ich auf UDEMY bisher gesehen habe.

There were good tips on course creation. in particular, using the Udemy "free" courses, accessing other courses similar to yours to see what they cover and how they do it, to use the Udemy metrics provided in the Instructor area, and others. These were all useful tips. There was a LOT of emphasis on promoting Udemy, which seemed "over the top". There was a strong suggestion to use TikTok, which seems inappropriate given the recent (July 2020) information that it provides data to China. Does not appear to be secure at all.

That´s a fast and great course. I recommend mostly to someone that is already an online instructor as me. I would love to see the process of making a course in max 2 weeks since it takes forever to launch each one.

This course is not technical but offers very useful information about blunders to avoid from an experienced teacher. It deals with issues I would not normally think is important. I think the course could do with mini exercises.

I learned tips in the first two videos that could save me time and earn me money when creating my Udemy courses. Like TJ mentions in the description, this is not the tech course. I'm in two for that from other Udemy experts, and making progress on that end that way. However, I have taken at this point countless courses on public speaking from TJ. I knew, liked, and trusted him — so I invested in this course of blunders to avoid. His perspective is very important and helpful.

I found this course for free with a coupon from the /r/udemyfreebies subreddit, so my experience (related to coures value) might be influenced by that. I don't think I'd pay $10+ for a course this short. However, it was definitely insightful and worth the short amount of time I invested in watching the videos. Thanks!
