First impressions are crucial, and when it comes to online tutoring, a good camera setup is your ticket to success. To ensure that you present yourself in the best light possible, follow these tips:

  • Camera Orientation: Make sure your camera is properly oriented to capture your face clearly. A well-framed shot allows students to focus on your teaching.

  • Good Lighting: Adequate lighting is essential for a clear and engaging video. Position yourself in a well-lit area to ensure your face is visible without harsh shadows.

  • Clean Background: A clutter-free, neutral background provides a professional and distraction-free environment for teaching.


Step 2: Technical Check: Check Your Equipment - Get the Right Gear

To deliver high-quality online tutoring sessions, your equipment must meet certain specifications. At EDGE Philippines, we value the importance of efficient tools for effective teaching. Here's what you'll need:
