I have been in the process of starting my own medical transcription course.  I have been short on money, but have my website address all bought and paid for and have lots of plans and information collected and organized and ready to go.  I also have my business license and such.  I just haven't had the overhead to really get my business off the ground.  (Hence, trying for the 3,000 this month at Gather).  But, today I have my very first student!  I will be charging him $20/hr. for one-on-one teaching/mentoring of medical transcription!  Yeay!  I'm so excited!  I'll be posting later about how it went and a little more information about my business.

Have a great day, my Gather friends!  :)

Congrats on your first student! $20/hr, I always charged $8-$10 (though I could've earned more...). Hope everything works out and good luck.
