Why you won’t want to miss this episode of Making it Real

You’re a nutritionist or wellness practitioner always looking for new opportunities and ways to diversify your income stream, but you struggle to find the right fit.

Well, do we have an excellent opportunity for you today on Making it Real.

Join Kiki as she sits down with Meal Garden’s Nutrition Manager, Erin Madden, to hear about how she uses Outschool to diversify her income and support children to learn about the benefits of good nutrition.

Discover the fantastic platform that is Outschool

Outschool is an online teaching platform that supports children to receive a fun and diverse education through live and interactive teaching. They have classes ranging from science to art, languages to life skills, and so much more for ages three years to 18. They are so popular that they have over 100,000 classes with 900,000 students in 174 countries! And our very own Erin is a teacher with them.

For those of you who know Erin, she loves sharing her knowledge on nutrition, especially sports nutrition. When she discovered Outschool, she knew that she had found a great platform to teach on. She can list as many or as few classes as she wants and dictate her working hours to fit this work around her life and other work.

“I teach around 22 nutrition classes, and it’s so much fun because you can teach what you are passionate about.”

Plus, nutrition and wellness classes are so popular on Outschool

Take up is high as students and teachers alike are always on the lookout for more about the importance of eating healthily.

Most students just don’t know what they should be eating. They don’t know what a healthy plate looks like. They don’t know the difference between good and bad fats and complex and simple carbohydrates. Plus, my sports nutrition classes sell out every time I host a new class.

— Erin Madden, Nutrition Manager & Instructor @ Outschool

As Meal Garden’s Nutrition Manager, Erin uses Meal Garden to support her classes. Like many Meal Garden fans, she uses our platform to create and compile recipe ebooks full of kid-friendly recipes.

“I love utilizing the kid-friendly tags that are on Meal Garden to be able to compile hundreds of recipes that a lot of the kids enjoy. Being able to download them into a handy PDF to send to the kids is just fantastic.”

The tagging system in Meal Garden makes it is so easy for her to develop new content and recipes for her students.

3 top things that Erin teaches

Hot Tip: Outschool loves nutrition classes that cater to all special dietary needs.

  • A 60 minute class on vegan meal planning for students looking to adapt to a more plant-based diet.
  • The benefits of healthy eating: finding sources of protein, vitamins, and minerals in a balanced diet and how to eat healthily on the go.
  • An introductory course to nutrition.   The class explores the importance of different dietary concerns to help students with nutritional challenges like lactose intolerance, gluten-free meals, etc.
I love that part of teaching is doing your research and being able to find new stuff to write about and pass on to my students.

What Erin loves about teaching

“I’ve had so many parents tell me that their kid’s pediatrician has noticed huge improvements in their weight and that they're making healthier food choices. The parents are so happy that their kids are thriving. It feels good knowing that I am helping in some way. It’s also so rewarding as a Nutritionist with Meal Garden; we’re all about changing the world for the better, and what's a better way to do that than through educating our children and building those habits to live a healthy life.”
