Become a tutor

Anyone who knows their subject can teach on Telureo. You teach live from your own computer, on Telureo’s YouTube channels, as part of an agency. Getting ready takes 4 steps.

1. Create your account

1. Sign up with your email address, or continue with Google or Apple. With email, you confirm your address with a 6-digit code that works for 15 minutes.
2. In your details, choose I want to teach. Add your name, date of birth, and country. With email, you also choose a password of at least 10 characters.

Telureo is for people aged 13 and over. If you already have a learner account, you can turn it into a tutor account from your dashboard.

On the demo site, made-up addresses such as you@example.com get their code on the demo inbox page.

2. Sign in with LinkedIn

Connect LinkedIn, so learners can see who is teaching them.

1. In Settings → Connected accounts, sign in with LinkedIn.
2. Paste the address of your public LinkedIn profile.

Your public tutor page appears once this step is done. You can also connect YouTube, X, and Instagram. They’re optional, and they appear on your page.

3. Join an agency

Every tutor belongs to an agency, a team on the Bittensor network that supports up to 5 tutors. On the network, each agency is a miner. Your agency agrees with you how it pays you, and can help you teach well.

1. Open the Agency section of your dashboard. It lists the agencies and their free places.
2. Choose one, or paste the address an agency gave you into Agency address. The address is the agency’s hotkey. Then press Get a code.
3. Send the code to the agency. The agency signs it with its keys (edu miner authorize --code <code>), and you’re in.

A code works once, for 1 hour. You can get 3 codes per UTC day, and each new code replaces the last.

Changing agency

• You can switch to another agency at most once every 7 days, with a new code. Your booked lectures move with you. Lectures you already gave stay with the old agency.
• If you leave without switching, your booked lectures are cancelled, and you can’t join an agency for 14 days.
• If your agency removes you, your booked lectures are cancelled, and you can’t join an agency for 7 days.
• No agency change is possible from 12 hours before one of your lectures until it ends. The pause runs on through a next lecture that starts within 12 hours.
• If your agency’s miner is deregistered, you can switch at once.

4. Set up your page

In Settings:

• Public profile. Your display name, the subjects you teach, a short biography, your teaching language and learner level, and your website or community links.
• Pictures. A profile picture, shown on every lecture, and a banner for your page. Choose one, check how it looks, then save.

In Courses, plan what you teach. A course is a series of lessons in order. You can link a lecture to any lesson, even while the course is a draft. Publish the course so learners can see it.
