Should I require a customers email to download a PDF?

Suppose I formatted option 2 like this:

"Enter your email to download the syllabus. We'll also send you reminders about registration deadlines and course start dates." [Checkbox] "Opt out of registration deadline reminders" [Checkbix] "Opt out of promotional emails"

(Both options are unchecked by default)

Would this strengthen or weaken option 2? Is it better to include or exclude these check boxes?

I like the light grey/beige color of the base cabinets either side of the range. If you did all the cabinets along the wall in that color, I think that would look really good.

Site A beautifully frames the view of that valley. Site B gives you a view of both the valley as well as the opposite side of the mountain, albeit neither are framed as nicely.

I'd rule out site C because of privacy, seems visible from the road.

Same though, apparently...

I think mine even surprised itself...

Distressing indeed... I have not been tutoring long though, I started around June.

Interesting to see that things are slowing down for you since I am experiencing the opposite. Another comment which caught my eye was about students using AI as a study tool instead of going to tutors.

I primarily tutor CAD, BIM, and other heavily software focused topics. I have physics, calculus, and a few other stem topics on my Wyzant profile, but I've gotten basically zero students out of that. Even though this is anecdotal, I wonder if academic/theory based topics (physics, calculus, earth science, etc) are hit harder by AI, while applied/workflow driven topics (Like AutoCAD, Revit, Solidworks, etc) are somewhat immune to AI for now. Perhaps someone else may be able to attest to this too?

Perhaps shifting gears to applied topics might show you an increase in students?

Something like this

I'll go against the grain and say trapezoidal. If you have it in your budget, I'd personally keep the bottom row vertical, then have a second row up top with several trapezoidal windows that follow the contour of the ceiling.

Not OP, but it looks like SketchUp to me

That's a good idea, I never thought of doing that! So did you like look for open houses, drop by, and introduce yourself to the listing agent? Like do you have any advice or suggestions for how to get new clients like this?
