Thanks to WordPress, it has never been easier or cheaper to make a platform for teaching. WordPress has all the bells and whistles you need to make a website for a school or college, a learning portal, or a membership site. Here's how to make an educational platform that is safe, easy to use, and flexible for your students.

Choose the Best LMS Plugin

You will need to find the best WordPress LMS plugin for you if you want to make a successful education platform. LMS plugins are essential if you're going to make your platform without a lot of stress. LMS plugins are different from membership plugins in that they give you the tools to create professional courses, keep track of your student's progress, and provide certificates for those who finish your course.

LearnDash is a well-known and highly rated LMS plugin that you can use. With LearnDash, you'll have everything you need to run a platform well. This plugin will be more accessible to keep your site up to date, make changes, and improve it over time.

LearnDash costs $199, which is a lot, but it is well worth it because your students can unlock courses as they earn points. This strategy will get your students more involved and make you more money. If you want to save money, there are a lot of free LMS plugins that work just as well, but they probably won't have as many extra features.

Offer PayPal as a Method of Payment

People love using PayPal to pay for things. They can pay for stuff by pressing just one button. If they include filling out the credit card data by hand, they are less likely to pay for your course. A sad truth about the world today. Using PayPal will make it easy to get more students and keep your educational platform running smoothly.

MailChimp setup

If you want to make a platform for education, you'll need an email list so you can easily send information to your subscribers. Using email is a great way to find new students and keep in touch with the ones you already have. MailChimp is the most accessible newsletter platform to use, and it's free! Once you sign up for MailChimp, you can send up to 12,000 emails per month to up to 2,000 people.

You can write your emails ahead of time and set up times to send them. It even has a high-tech tool to help you analyze your email list. It will track who opened your emails, who clicked on the most links, and from what cities your readers are reading your emails. This plugin will make it easy and stress-free to talk to your students.

WPComplete

This plugin is great if you want your students to keep going. WPComplete lets your students mark off assignments they've finished as time goes on. It also makes a progress bar for each student as they move through the course, encouraging them to get to the end.

This is a great way to make more money, and as your students keep getting better, it will also create them feel okay about themselves. As an extra feature, you can change the colors of the progress bar and checklist to match the theme of your site. WPComplete costs $59 a year, but it will make your educational platform more successful and should be downloaded if it fits your budget.

The last thing you require is your students to quit without finishing their courses. Since they will be learning online, there isn't much of a schedule for when they should be learning. But with this tool, your students will always be on top of their game and get the most out of what they paid for.

Prepare Valuable Content

And finally, if you want to have adequate education, you need to fill it with accurate, professional content. Every educational site should have video lessons, written information, interactive content, and a way for people to get involved in the community. Video lessons are a great way to reach many people online quickly.

You don't have to use videos, but it helps students remember what they learn if they can put a voice and face to the person teaching them. The best thing about learning online is that students can go back and watch or read what they just learned again.

You should get some written content, even if it's just a post with the video's transcript. You may use sites such as OfCourseBooks to make workbooks for your students that are fun and interactive to keep them interested in the material.

And finally, creating a Facebook page or Slack channel with all one's students is a great way to give them the same sense of community that you get in a traditional school. If you have a Facebook page, your students will have a place to easily ask questions, get help with homework, and talk to other students from around the world who are learning the same things.

All of these are essential tools for making a successful educational platform that will keep students interested and bring in more money and help them learn a lot. When making an educational platform, the most important things are to have the right plugins, a mailing list, the right ways to pay, and good content from which people can learn.
