Has anyone taught as an online adjunct professor? I am thinking about trying this out as a side gig for some extra cash. I like the idea of teaching online courses as I did not most my degrees via distance learning, but don’t know if it would be a good idea to start teaching them. Has anybody had any experience with any specific schools they would like to share? What do they look for in a candidate? And most importantly, how much do they pay?

I'm interested in this as well. Following

Yes I know this is a capitalist society, and we all want to make more money. But if you don't have a passion for teaching, don't do it. You get to impart knowledge. It is a big deal.

I have, but not for long. I'm sure people who've done it for a while get more proficient but when I figured out my pay per semester vs the hours I put in it wasn't worth the time away from my family locked in my dining room doing lesson plans and grading. Have to do it because you LOVE teaching which I do but prefer to volunteer with younger kids than college age.

There was a period of several years where the only employment I could find was adjunct teaching, some online and some in the classroom. After knocking myself out for $10/hour, that's why I decided to retrain in accounting.
