What the work is for

YPAI Learn runs live classes where people learn to connect AI to the systems they already work with. Your classes take developers from a first local MCP server with one tool to a remote server behind OAuth sign-in that an agent can call, and teach them to check what each tool can read and change.

The work

  • Teach the live class “Build an MCP server with tools and resources for your own data”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.
  • Teach the live class “Secure a remote MCP server with OAuth and connect it to an agent”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.
  • Show live how a tool's name, description and input schema shape when and how the model calls it, and how a resource that only supplies data differs from a tool that acts.
  • Walk learners through the MCP Inspector: list a server's tools and resources, call one by hand, read the JSON-RPC messages and find out why a call failed.
  • Help learners when a server will not start, a client cannot see it or a token is refused, and show where the server's own logs explain why.

What to expect

  • Classes run in English, live online, for developers in many countries. The application also asks in which other languages you could teach the protocol.
  • Each class kit holds a minute-by-minute plan, slides, speaker notes, a demo of an MCP server answering calls from an AI client, and a backup recording of that demo.
  • You teach from your own computer, remotely, with a code editor and an MCP client set up for the demo, and a stable connection, a camera and a microphone.
  • Before you teach an MCP class for the first time, you pass the instructor test for that class.
  • Before a teaching assignment starts, you sign an instructor agreement. It covers pay, confidentiality and how class material may be used.
  • Each invitation states the class times and the price learners pay, and you see both before you accept.
  • Already have a course on MCP, or want to make one? You can sell your own recorded course on YPAI Learn too. Bring a course you've built, or build one with our kit. It's the same application.

What you bring

  • An MCP server you built or extended for real work, with code or a write-up you can walk through.
  • Experience teaching developers, giving technical talks, writing tutorials or running hands-on workshops.
  • Patience with developers who have called an API before but never written a server for an AI client.

You need

  • Hands-on experience building or running MCP servers and connecting them to AI clients in your own work.
  • Working knowledge of APIs, JSON and authentication, such as API keys and OAuth tokens.
  • Fluent spoken English, the language the classes are taught in.
  • 18 years or older.

Good to know

  • If your employment contract asks for approval before you take outside work, get it before you accept an MCP teaching assignment.
  • How often you teach MCP depends on demand for the classes; each invitation gives the expected time commitment.
  • Applying costs nothing, and no YPAI Learn course has to be bought or taken first.
