You can ask for partial payments within a set period of time if your students are unable to pay full amount in one go.

I think, it is better to charge in advance or in installments too. Students leaving the class half way is always a worry.

I am charging 150 INR for 60 min via skype. Classes must paid in advance. I give a 30 min trial class for people to check me out. Many times people 'forgot' to pay, for this reason they have to pay in advance. Some pay 10 lessons in advance if they take thrice a week 2 classes and others, have to pay at least 4 lessons in advance. Do not get tricked please. Also do not allow people not to appear, is should be called off at least 4 hours prior to the class, else they should also pay 50 percent. I gave too many free lessons, its not worth it, no one appreciates you, best to give clear guide lines for payment and missed classes. Best wishes, Alles Liebe, Sabine read less

Well I charge half of the fees after 2-3 sessions and the rest half before the exam prep of that particular level. Till now though it has never happened that student didn't pay the rest. I guess it has to do with your methodology of teaching if one will pay or won't

To improve speaking ability (through individual classes) depends on your teacher only
Without hesitation, you should just start speaking. Another very good way of getting over the fear of speaking is to sing. Learn German songs. Sing them loud...sing along. This will help you to overcome the speaking hesitations.
