This video is all about increasing your VIPKid bookings by creating a stand out profile picture!

Not only will I explain WHY you're profile picture is so important I'll show you HOW you can create one that will help set you apart form everyone else.

6:31- “I just need to make a return please.” That was soooo awesome! 👏🏻

I wanted to let you know how valuable you are to teachers that don't have your talents!! I have been fully booked for the last two months!! Thank you so much, you are a great Ambassador for the Teachers of VIPKID!

[carvedouttastone]

I'm so blown away by your videos and ideas. You are truly motivating me and inspiring me to be the best teacher I can be for my upcoming role as an ESL teacher. Thanks so much!

Great Video!!!! So going to use these tips. Like the idea of the Hello Kitty shirt! Great tips Michael.

From a fellow Canadian looking to break into the online English teaching profession - great videos and lots of information to take away

I love the whole video. Thanks for the tips. Return the shirts...you made me laugh.

[marisolfontanez]

lololol OMG you returned the shirt! Brilliant! :))

[lisamarklecreates]

This is a super helpful video! I have to add, I had a mini panic attack when it looked like you left your camera on the Walmart parking lot ground and walked away from it into the store! LOL

[nomadicvibesofelle]

Yes. I updated my photo and my video. After seeing your video about shooting it all in one take I made a video that was much better than my first one.

[lmariehill]

Loved this video! I watched a few of your other videos too and I really found them useful. After more than a year with VIPKID I’m now motivated and excited to redo my pic and video!

[MainzxLivewire]

What an amazingly insightful video !! Walmart for the pro(ish) photography idea is a game changer !! Thanks Michael 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[ChildlikeWonder]

First impression: You must have an amazing camera for vlogging. It looks so crisp and bright.... that's awesome. Also, I love the staged background that shows some flair and personality, interests and even two little Canadian flags. I want this kind of background for my classroom. It's clean and classy. Way to go!

[christyconner]

You should have kept that shirt. The kids would love it!! :) Great tips.

[celestesodergren]

I love watching your videos! They are so helpful, and make me feel like I can do it too!

[kristingable]

Super! Thanks Teacher Michael! I am going t5o use your tip for my profile pic right now!! :-)

[TheRaquellio]

Hey. Wonderful ideas!!
You don´t have to go to Walmart, which hurts small businesses and treats its employees in a less than stellar fashion (not to mention it´s ecological footprint). There are other stores where you can buy and then return a shirt and there are other photographers which may cost slightly more but it´s worth it knowing that you´re contributing to ethical business practices.

Love the video! You have great energy!

I love your videos!! I need to look at profile pic.. I was thinking today actually I might need to update.. 😊 when I was first hired they wouldn’t take the one I had with a puppet.
