Not only are we your biggest cheerleaders, but we're also dedicated to cultivating a community of teachers who cheer each other on. Our Teacher Hub group is a space for teachers to connect, ask questions, gather feedback, share wins, and more!

A community of support

Continued training & education

To best support the success of teachers, new teachers will be invited to join our marketplace based on demand. Applications are always open, but there may be times when onboarding is paused so the market isn't flooded with more classes than learners can fill.

A commitment to sustainable growth

*Both secular & faith-based courses are reviewed to ensure they align with our content guidelines.

Before officially joining the WonderWell Learning marketplace, all teachers must verify their identity and clear a background check. To ensure the safety of our community, both are mandatory for all teachers on our platform.

Identity verification is completed by submitting one of the following valid photo government IDs:

  • Global watchlist
  • National criminal search
  • County criminal search

Once your background check clears, you’re in! We can’t wait to welcome you to our community.

Q: How can I enroll more learners in my courses?

We actively share about available courses. This includes sharing class spotlights in newsletters, on our social media channels, in our community Facebook group, and highlighting new courses each week!

We also encourage teachers to share about their courses. Our WonderWell Learning Community Facebook group is an excellent place to share your courses with families, as well as other education groups and your personal social media profiles.

We are dedicated to supporting the success of all our teachers here at WonderWell Learning and the strongest way we can accomplish this is with a combined effort of our team and teachers all actively sharing courses.

FAQ

Q: How are teachers paid & what can I earn?

Teachers earn 70% of the set class price.

Earnings from individual class meetings are paid 7-13 days after the completion of a class. Any refunds or issues that need to be resolved will occur during this time. At the 7-day mark, payment is then calculated and added to the next pay cycle! Payroll runs weekly and teachers can select how they’d like to be paid out in their Gusto portal.
