It depends on what your business card says you're a teacher of...

Not a bad idea for those who dare. But I think I'll save the sticker and put on a really desperate look instead.

wolfgang,
that's the best marketing idea you can come up with for yourself?

Jeff, I am an academician. By definition, we don't know anything about the stuff we teach. (I think it's even a prerequisite)

(1) I cannot pull a Ronmarter because I don’t have Brad Pitt next to me.

(2) I cannot perform the Vancouver Maneuver because at 50 mph, you shouldn’t be scribbling your email address on a piece of paper.

So all I had to offer was a clueless smile and an irritated wave back.

What do we learn from this? This thread did not provide us with the answers we need! We need foolproof methods! We need solutions! We need a revolution!
Your a teacher, you should have a portable chalk or ink board in your passenger seat so you can scribble a message and hold it up.

Pffft, I'm myself, I'm not looking for anything if something happens, it'll come along. Let her market herself to ME.
