Teach what you know, live.

You bring the knowledge. Telureo runs the YouTube channels, the schedule, and the audience numbers. Every tutor teaches with an agency. What’s that?

From sign-up to your first live lecture

Four steps. Only your agency’s approval waits on someone else.

  1. 1Create a tutor accountSign up as a tutor and connect LinkedIn, so learners can see who is teaching them.Sign up as a tutor
  2. 2Join an agencyChoose an agency in your dashboard and send it the one-time code we give you. The code lasts an hour, and the agency approves you with it.How joining an agency works (opens in a new tab)
  3. 3Book a lectureChoose a channel and a time. If the lecture is part of a course, link it to its lesson. We create the YouTube event for you.The booking guide (opens in a new tab)
  4. 4Teach live on YouTubeGo live from OBS or any streaming app, with the stream key in your dashboard. It’s ready about a minute after you book. Then teach, and answer questions in the chat.Streaming, step by step (opens in a new tab)

The essentials

  • Teach live, and answer questions in the chat. A recording or a loop isn’t a live lecture.
  • One lecture per day (UTC), 10 to 120 minutes long.
  • You can cancel until 48 hours before the start.
  • Only use material you have the right to use.

How tutors are ranked

A lecture’s score is its live watch-minutes on YouTube. Scores arrive about 2 days after a lecture ends and are final after 5. Your score for a day, a week, or a month adds up your lectures. Replays never count, and a score measures live audience, not teaching quality.

Good to know

Anything else? The rules cover the details.

What is an agency?

An agency is a team on the Bittensor network, a miner on Telureo’s subnet. It vouches for up to 5 tutors, helps them teach well, and earns from their live audience. It approves you with a short code. You can move to another agency once every 7 days, and booked lectures that haven’t started move with you.

What do I need to teach?

A computer with a camera and a microphone, and a streaming app such as OBS. When you book, we create the YouTube event and show you the stream settings to paste into your app.

What if other lectures run at the same time as mine?

That’s normal. Up to 8 lectures can run at once on each channel, and learners see them side by side in the schedule. When you book, the form shows how many places are taken at that time.

Who watches, and does it cost anything?

Anyone aged 13 and over can watch, for free, on the channel’s YouTube channel. Teaching is free too.

Can I leave my agency?

Yes. If you leave without moving to another agency, your booked lectures are cancelled, and you can join an agency again after 14 days. Agency changes pause from 12 hours before each of your lectures until it ends.
