For Language Teachers

Teach the way languages are actually learned.
And keep what you earn

TooTii is built by a teacher, for teachers. Every tutor is verified, and your pay depends on your verified level and accent — the same rate for group and 1-on-1 lessons.

$10–$20
per 50-minute lesson
Same rate
for group and 1-on-1
Paid by your verified level and accent. We verify every tutor with an ID check and a live 1-on-1 assessment.
Why TooTii

Most platforms take from teachers. This one was built by one

Our founder taught on iTalki for years. He knows exactly what's broken. TooTii is the platform he wished existed.

⚠️ Most platforms

  • ✕Take 15–33% commission directly from your earnings
  • ✕Monthly payouts — you wait weeks for your own money
  • ✕Payment blocked for teachers in sanctioned countries
  • ✕No method — you teach however the student expects
  • ✕Race to the bottom on price — beginners undercut you
  • ✕No content marketplace — your materials earn nothing

  • ✓Payment solutions for Russia, Iran, and restricted regions
  • ✓The DLI method — a structured system that gets students results

How we verify tutors

Every tutor is verified individually

🎤

Live assessment

Your verified level

Once verified, you are listed and bookable — and your pay tier is set.

The Certification Path

Four steps from application to certified DLI teacher

We don't just want fluent speakers. We want teachers who believe in this method — and know how to apply it.

📖
Read the Method
Start with our Method page. If you find yourself nodding — you're in the right place. If you think grammar drills are essential, this probably isn't for you.

Your Career Path

Start on the platform — grow beyond it

TooTii is designed to grow with you — not to keep you dependent on it. The better you get, the more options you have.

After completing 72 hours of certified teaching on the platform (one full student fluency cycle), you become eligible to upgrade to our SaaS subscription — giving you access to all DLI materials and tools for your own independent students, at a fixed monthly fee instead of per-lesson arrangements.

📈

The 72-hour threshold

Complete one full fluency cycle with your students before going independent. This protects the platform that introduced you to your students — and gives you time to prove your method before flying solo.

🔓

SaaS subscription access

After the threshold, pay a fixed monthly fee for full access to DLI materials and classroom tools — use them with your own students, completely independently.

⚡

Both simultaneously

Many teachers do both — stay listed on TooTii for new students while using the SaaS tools for their existing private students. You're not forced to choose.

Your Journey

Complete $99 DLI Workshop

Learn the method. Observe a real lesson. Teach your first assisted class.

Get DLI Certified — go live

Profile listed in the directory. Students book. You teach. You earn 100% of your rate.

Build your reputation

Student milestone cards, ratings, and lesson count build your profile. Better teachers naturally rise — no bidding war.

72 hours taught → SaaS eligible

One full fluency cycle completed. You can now access DLI tools for your own students independently.

Create content — earn passively

Publish DLI lessons. Every time a student buys them or a teacher uses them in class, you earn a royalty.

Content Creators

Create once, earn every time it's used

Beyond teaching live, certified teachers can create DLI lessons — video scenes, vocabulary, exercises, stories — and publish them to the platform. Every time a student buys a lesson or a teacher uses it in a class, you earn a royalty.

🧑‍💻 Student buys your lesson

A self-study student purchases your lesson pack directly. The split is straightforward — you keep the majority, the platform keeps a share to cover hosting and marketing.

30%
You (creator) — 70%
Platform — 30%
Students browse and buy your lessons independently — passive income while you sleep.

👩‍🏫 A teacher uses your lesson in class

Another certified teacher picks up your lesson and uses it as the basis for their live session. You earn a creator royalty from that lesson's revenue — automatically, quietly, without the student knowing.

The teaching teacher's student relationship is protected — your credit appears to them, not to the student.
