Link in bio for teachers and course creators: classes, syllabi and enrollment
How to present private lessons, workshops or online courses: what is learned, who it is for, how to enroll, free samples and payments with no Zona commission.
Teaching is a promise-based service: someone signing up for a class or a course trusts they will come out knowing something they do not know today. The page of a teacher or course creator has to make that promise credible in a few seconds and, at the same time, offer a simple way to take the step. It is a case where clarity about what is learned weighs more than any eye-catching design.
What is learned, for whom and how
Three sentences are enough to present a course:
- What you will achieve. A concrete outcome: "Play ten songs on guitar from scratch", "Write a technical report without common errors".
- Who it is for. A real profile: "Adults with no prior experience", "Engineering students".
- How it works. Format, duration and effort: "Six weeks, two classes a week, live and with recordings".
Avoid vague promises ("learn at your pace and change your life"). Someone buying a course evaluates whether what you offer fits their current situation, and precision inspires more trust than enthusiasm.
A free sample as an entry door
The barrier to enrolling in something new is doubt: will I like the way of teaching, will I understand the level? Offering a sample removes that doubt. It can be an open class, a chapter, a PDF guide or a five-minute introduction video. Put it as the second button after the main one, or as the main one if your goal is to capture contacts. Someone who tries it and likes it has a clear path toward enrollment.
Enrollment information without friction
When someone decides to sign up, the path must be short. State clearly:
- The start dates and the enrollment deadline.
- The price and what it includes (materials, access to recordings, support).
- How to pay and which methods are accepted.
- The refund policy, if there is one.
If you sell online courses or classes, Zona's store lets you charge directly to your Mercado Pago, Stripe or PayPal account, with no Zona commission on sales. Check the store page. On plans: free is for preparing the store, Pro for selling up to 3 products and Business for an unlimited catalog. For private lessons with a calendar, a booking button or a WhatsApp button with a prepared message, as explained in contact and WhatsApp, is enough.
Social proof suited to the context
Student testimonials are among the most convincing proof in education, especially if they speak of a concrete result: "I passed the exam on the first attempt" or "Now I can hold a conversation in English". Ask for permission, include the name when possible and avoid figures or guarantees you cannot sustain. If you have credentials (degree, years of experience, publications), place them soberly.
One program, one button
If you offer several courses, resist the temptation to list them all at the first level. A "Courses" button leading to a catalog ordered by topic or level is more manageable. Highlight in the first button the course that is open now, and leave the others below. When enrollment closes, replace the button with a waiting list for the next edition: do not lose whoever arrived late.
Newsletter and community
Many course creators build their audience with a free newsletter: weekly tips, exercises or news. A "Get this week's tips" button captures contacts who may later become students. If you have a community of students (a chat group, a forum), mention it: it conveys that nobody learns alone.
An example structure
For an English teacher with an online course:
- Enroll in the January course (main).
- Free sample class.
- What the course includes.
- Student reviews.
- Private lessons.
- Newsletter.
- Instagram.
Seven buttons ordered from the most needed to the least.
Measure conversion
Analytics tell you how many people see the course, how many ask for the sample and how many reach enrollment. If many see it and few ask for the sample, the title or promise does not attract; if they ask for the sample and do not enroll, the problem usually lies in the price, the timing or trust. Zona's free plan includes 7 days of analytics and Pro and Business include 90. If you want to set up your page, create your zone for free.
Common mistakes
- Describing the content without saying what is achieved.
- Hiding the price until the last step.
- Offering no sample.
- Keeping open a course whose enrollment has closed.
- Promising guaranteed results.
Frequently asked questions
Should I show the price on the page?
Yes. It is among the most searched data, and hiding it usually generates distrust or repeated messages.
Can I sell a recorded course and a live one at the same time?
Yes, as long as you differentiate them clearly: format, dates, support and price.
What do I do with students from different countries?
State the schedule with a time zone and the payment methods available. If you sell through Zona's store, choose methods that work in your students' region.
How many courses can I show?
All you have, but highlight one. A catalog without hierarchy makes deciding harder.
