If you're a medical student who's worked HARD to create a course on UCAT/Personal Statements etc., it's perfectly fine for you to charge for your services.

In fact, I'd encourage you to do so...

When I created my first classroom courses, the only way I knew how to compete with big competitors was to say that we were cheaper.

It was the worst decision I could have made.

In one instance, I ended up losing hundreds of pounds out of my own pocket, not to mention the months of hard work I put into it.

It's great if you can host FREE courses using society/charitable funds and the goodwill of tutors to help out.

However, for most students looking to provide a consistent, sustainable service, it's absurd to expect them to do it for free.

As long as you're not holding a monopoly on that information, you should be able to charge whatever you want without feeling guilt-tripped.

Recently, I've read a lot of viewpoints online that I disagree with, so I've written about my stance on the subject.

Read my short article on it here (and I'd love to discuss if you think differently!):
