While there are differing opinions on whether the facilitator (MOTIVATORS) should be a trained “professional” or not, there are qualities of any facilitator that should be sought.

-
A Motivator needs to be accepting and nonjudgmental.
-

-
A Motivator needs to be able to demonstrate compassion, empathy, respect, and authenticity.

Prospective Motivators FAQ
What does PAUSE, Inc. offer Motivators?
We offer a platform for coaches to organize, promote, and deliver online classes.
This includes:
-
Beautiful online listings for your classes
-
Access to our community of learners
-
Secure online payments
-
Integrated video chat platform and messaging
-
Responsive support via chat and email
We do our best to simplify the logistics, so you can focus on crafting the class experience.
What classes can I teach?
We encourage you to teach classes on topics you are passionate about and experienced with, and ideally that you have taught before. We welcome classes on all subjects and in all formats, for learners age 18+. PAUSE does not provide classes for adults or children struggling with medically diagnosed mental health issues unless referred by their physician as supportive therapy. Motivators will not report to the referring physician.
We generally suggest the Motivators offering a range of classes, known as MOMENTS, including short-form introductory classes that meet 1-4 times, as well as longer-form semester-long classes. We have found it hard to predict what classes are popular on PAUSE, thus the MOMENT's evaluations are heavily weighted when it comes to reoffering the MOMENT.
So we suggest listing a range of options and then iterating based on the response.
​
All classes should involve significant interaction with the Motivator.
We do not sell curriculum or self-paced classes.
​
What can I earn? What does this cost?
Your earnings will depend on what your classes cost, and how many people sign up. PAUSE collects a 30% service fee from all paid enrollments. We will send your payment 7-10 days after your class is scheduled to start. Payment is via Paypal to the email address you specify. You will need to pay tax on your earnings and report them appropriately.
​
Can I use PAUSE, Inc. to promote classes that are sold elsewhere?
No. Because PAUSE relies on an integrated video chat system,
all attending learners must be enrolled through the PAUSE website.
