The free first lesson is the strongest part of this offer. I'd make it easier to say yes to by spelling out what an hour actually is: a review of one of their own games, a few tsumego at their level, and which voice app you use. You mention the accent, so a short recorded review of a 20k game, linked in your next post, lets people hear you teach before they book. That will probably settle it better than any description.

I make ThreadFox. Our AI employee can answer Go questions on Reddit where your lessons fit, under your direction; Starter is $199 for 30 days, or we'll post 3 replies for you free first, no card: https://threadfox.vip/p/egf28/managed

Offering to work for minimum wage not only devalues your own skill (and suggests that you aren't worth paying for at all), it also devalues the skill and wages of other Go teachers.

The payment model for Go teachers should be the same for piano teachers. I don't know any piano teachers that would work for 10 Euros an hour. Obviously, since your lessons are remote, the rate should be a little less than a piano teacher who teaches in person, but it's the same sort of skill and attention, and so should be compensated similarly.

I think it's the right price for what i believe is the quality of the service i offer. I don't think my price devalues other go teachers wages and skills.
