Adult digital-literacy lessons
Teach practical device tasks without taking control of a learner's private accounts.
What to price before starting
Check demonstration devices, accessible materials and a suitable connection.
Use your own written quotes, including recurring costs and the cash you could lose. Owning equipment does not establish customer demand.
Skills you must be able to demonstrate
Patient explanation, accessibility awareness and privacy boundaries.
Before the first payment
Agree the specific task and keep passwords and authentication under the learner's control.
Keep the deliverable, exclusions, approvals and payment responsibility in writing. Do not treat a lead, an invoice or a promised reimbursement as money received.
Where this can go wrong
Handling credentials or financial accounts can expose a learner to loss.
Requirements and refusal boundaries
Do not request security codes or perform financial, legal or identity actions on a learner's behalf.
Confirm the exact activity with the relevant authority and insurer. The references below explain general issues; they do not approve this individual service in your jurisdiction.
A lower-risk validation step
Teach file organization using a demonstration account with fictional documents.
Set a stop condition before spending: what evidence would make you decline, change scope or stop? A practice sample should never expose another person's confidential material.
Primary checks
- SBA: licenses and permits
