There are four stages that a relationship goes through when it starts to go wrong and by recognising what they are you are more able to make changes to what’s going on and be able to do something about it before it’s too late.

1. Disillusionment / discontentment

I've been teaching for 6 years now and getting busier every year...until October 2008.

As a knitting teacher, Sept-Dec is my busiest time of the year...classes book up up to six weeks in advance. But Oct 08 was like a ghost town for Knitting SOS. My years finances have averaged out pretty healthy due to a couple of big jobs last Spring, but I'm noticing that I can't fill classes as easily as I was 12 months ago.

Has anyone else found this and do they have any suggestions to inspire people to learn?

I'd be interested to hear about how different teachers ask for and accept payment.

I'm a knitting teacher and I started off about 5 years ago not asking for any money in advance, just cash on the day. It took about 6 months of endless no-shows before I started asking for a 50% deposit. Then on the advice of students, I made this 100% deposit with a cancellation policy (see below).

But there are still times that people book and need endless chasing for payment (these are the one's that want to pay last minute and they often cancel last minute).

A helpful Amazon reviewer has taken the time to summarise the 21 bad habits (well, 20 actually) outlined by Marshall Goldsmith in his book "What Got You Here Won't Get You There".

I've reposted them below:

Letting winning get in the way of relationships you need
Dropping too many ideas on those who work for you
Being judgmental rather than helpful
Slamming people in public or behind their backs
Making comments that indicate you disagree with everything that's just been said
Showing off how smart you think you are
Saying anything in anger
Being negative

My friend Nick worked on this course with a friend of his who has sadly passed away, but he's made it available now for free in his memory. It includes a PDF guide plus two hours of supporting audio comprising seven easy lessons in how to identify what you know and competently teach it.

As Nick says, "we would love you to have access to Rick’s material free of charge – with just one condition – please use the material to teach what you have to share."

Might be of interest to all those "long-time learners, first-time teachers" out there?
