Akvilė Dominyka on choosing to teach smarter when faced with a health challenge

December 7, 2024

In this episode, Akvilė describes how she made the transition from working 8-12 hours a day down to just 3-4 hours. She started feeling burned out and knew she needed a change.

When she first tried working asynchronously, it was an experiment that she did as “something extra” on top of 1:1 classes. But then a health challenge prompted her to switch completely.

Now she has the freedom to work when she wants and has time to experiment with new approaches to teaching and marketing. Self-coaching has been crucial to reaching her goals.
