Just a random thought, but have you considered doing something like Matygo (http://matygo.com) - I just started teaching a class on there and its pretty cool / interactive with the students. Not sure what type of time commitment you were looking for, but I think they can always use great instructors.

Cool idea, they made it to my bookmarks. Ideas like this are the future of education. I was thinking the same thing when I read the original article posted about teaching. My first thought was why not a video chat with a class instead of one person. My second thought was I wonder if anyone is doing this, you answered my second question. Thank You.

The reason for the one-on-one format is that I want to get a feel for where different people are in their learning. Already, I've heard from total newbies, people with programming experience wanting to move into iOS, and people who have tried doing iOS development and found difficulty.

I totally agree that if you could vet your audience (which might be as simple as slapping a price tag on it and posting a syllabus), you could take a more homogeneous approach. I'll certainly be looking in this in the future.

For the moment, I guess I've created a wildly "unscalable" experience in order to give everyone personalized attention wherever they may be.

Sure I understand, I was really thinking about the problem space from your offer. I was not trying to imply that it is right for what you specifically wanted to accomplish. I do thank you for bringing up the topic though, because it helped me find something that is very interesting to me. I wish you luck in your teaching efforts.

question to any - is there a start-up working toward hosting generic teachers/courses? ie, say i wanted to set up my own certificate and have some vid lectures hosted and then have the site take care of the sign-up, details and perhaps the multi-choice questions etc and take a cut.

as far as i can tell, there are a lot for programmers, but nothing for anything else.

We started building bytecourse.com to aid in online education but left it on the backburner because it lacked any sort of business model. We would love to help you out if you want to host something. Email me at [e-mail]

I'd say udemy (www.udemy.com - no affiliation) is the closest to the site you're looking for.
