Hello Cheyi.... It can take some time for students to find your profile and purchase lessons with you. There are some basics how to attract students (from profile picture/video to description and /or being active on the livexp. Good luck MiRinda
The first thing you should do, is promoting your XP profile on your social media. That might help you.
Hi Cheyi, I found the most effective way is to keep active on the format but also to have a wide range of your schedule available along with a broad descriptive of your teaching format. It takes some time but in no time you will get the traffic you desire or seek. best wishes and best of luck to you!!

- What is the most common mistake that you see beginners make when learning English?
It’s very common to make mistakes when you start learning English. What’s the most common mistake (grammatical, speaking, etc) that you have seen with beginner students? How did you correct them?

I think beginners of any language translate every word or sentence in their minds. This translation method takes long time to learn any language. They should focus on rather core skills of language; ie. reading, writing, speaking and listening.

Not so genius, but this has worked with my Asian and Latino students: Substitute all "Th-" in words with a "D-", as it is an easier starting point e.g. instead of "The", ask them to say De(almost like a form of pidgin english: de boi VS the boy). Its a matter of throat to tongue, where sounds with "T" and "D" are easier to begin with and then you will gradually progress to the "Th-" sounds as the find confindence and comfort. You could always tell them to pretend they are blowing out candles on a birthday cake; and for the "Th" sound their tongue should gently touch their teeth, like in words like "Thin" or "This". Have them practice the not so elated soft "Th" sound-- its like their tongue is having a short siesta on their teeth! Such a mental jounery and lots of creativity will get you through a lot of pronounciation hurdles.
