Lead magnet
I found a lead magnet from ages ago: a list of websites with texts that are similar in content and genre to those of the OET Test. It is now on my website with a Mailerlite automation. Sent a demo and it works.

Asynchronous Learning
Asynchronous learning is not only a mouthful, but also jargon that most people outside of teaching are unfamiliar with. So, I was wondering, what do you call asynchronous lessons when you are talking to learners?

Leo suggested 'Learning Opportunities' instead of 'homework'. I like personalized weekly plan + other learning opportunities, which gives people a chance to complete a baseline or do more.

I've just sent my newest student who took her first session an email. I offered: 🌎 - 'learning opportunities' - time estimate - the word 'daily-ish' for flashcard review. - 'continue with what you're doing at your own pace' - 'read and give me your opinion' with her learning plan for the next 12 sessions. This assures her that I've got a bigger plan but that we are co-authors of the learning journey. And assures me that I'm not responsible for what she does outside the class.
Struggling to connect mailerlite and Squarespace.
The screenshots on the helpvideos are not alligning with what I am seeing on my Square Space and I'm struggling. Will report in tomorrow.

Confused
Hello, I'm throwing it here in case I'm not the only one and maybe we can support each other. I've had my business's for 3 years now but I mostly teach through language school. I took part in some coaching programmes for entrepreneurs and now I'm trying to do the whole marketing thing on IG. So far not really successful and Im already burnout, running out of time to teach 1-1 so I thought of switch to group courses. But I also heard opinion that you should first master 1-1, have clients and then switch. Any thoughts on that?

I know that my course works for a group because I've run it three times with a charity. I would also consider small group or pairs as a way to start. Good luck.
Be-Get-Have
First, I am not sure about 'It was broken' being classified as active. It feels like the sentence fits the passive and the active. For 'be', 'He will be discharged'. A formal declarative statement of a neutral process. For 'get', 'He got shafted'. A statement describing an unpleasant outcome, the subject of the verb suffered. This also suggests the finality of the outcome. The verb 'get' is also a sense of effort...'He got released' We also use 'get + passive' informally: 'I got my hair cut'. For have: 'I had my hair cut' just sounds more formal, but to me this really focusses on the organisation I did in terms of checking calendar, booking the appointment and talking to the hairdresser. It also feels more like 'I put things in place so that a barber cut my hair'. In the situation of a regular haircut, no one would say 'My hair is being/will be cut'.

The reason I said it could be active is that it could just be a verb using 'to be' in the past simple with the adjective 'broken'.
