How to use Reels as teaching tools to wow your students. Interview with Reels Coach Anneke Harris from @pinksparrowsocial

TikTok, Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts are normal for our
students to use. Wouldn't it be neat to use those formats to
educate them?





Anneke is a social media expert and the founder of pink sparrow
social (her students call her the queen of Reels).


Anneke completed a degree in business marketing and then went on
to create a social media agency managing social media accounts
for a few years before Covid restrictions shut down most of her
clients businesses and most of her contracts were put on hold.





Rather than dwell on the loss of business, Anneke decided to use
this as an opportunity to use her accrued knowledge of the
industry and apply it to her Instagram and built Pink Sparrow
Social.





Without any paid ads or investment (other than her time) Anneke
initially grew her account from less than 1k followers to 100k in
just 3 months and currently she has almost 1/4 of a million
followers and generates a full time passive income through a
selection of online products which includes her Instagram
coaching program - The Reels Academy
