How to Become a Poker Coach
After you have mastered poker technique and are winning consistently at your favorite stake, you may want to consider becoming a online poker coach. Poker coaches provide new players with the knowledge that they need to succeed at the table. To be a good poker online coach you need to be able to blend poker prowess with teaching ability. The first step for any potential poker coach is to see if they have the ability to teach poker. Teaching poker is a very different ball game then playing on your own. I would suggest that you try teaching poker to your friends first. If you can teach them a new skill or a new strategy effectively, then you may have the raw skill to instruct people who are not already biased in your favor. After that, you need to start small. Try advertising on small poker forums for new clients. At this point you are just trying to build your resume and references. Keep your prices low to help your client list grow. Only after you have a god solid base should you advertise more extensively. Remember that a poker coaching career is not built overnight. It is a long, slow process, but can pay off in the end.
