"Higher"?

This thread is suspicious already.

Based on errors in previous posts, I don't think OP's native language is English.

That may be, but even so. OP is asking for the recommendation of a specific school.

Did I do something wrong here, this is the online teaching area of the website, isn't it? I was simply just asking for a general idea of what the board members first online teaching job was, that's all. I'm not sure why that would make some of you be rude for no reason.

I was already teaching full time at my college (all f2f classes) when I added one online course to my schedule. Actually, I didn't add a course, but morphed an alternate-delivery course into online delivery. (The alt-delivery was this weird correspondence course sort of thing, that I inherited from a retiree.)

In my current position, again I started teaching full time f2f only, but moved into teaching online as well.

I was (and still am) teaching full time when I developed my first online course.  I offer the course during the summer session.
