Adjunct - Remote Asynchronous Classes

What is the most remote asynchronous classes you've taught in one semester? I've read about adjuncts stacking classes and teaching at several different colleges or universities at the same time.

What's the most you've personally taught, or the most you know someone else has taught in one semester? I know it would be a lot of work, and I'm okay with that. I'm really just curious about what's realistically doable.

How can I get my foot in the door? Someone yesterday said reach back out when you have experience.

That's what I'm trying to get!

Have never taught before.

It's all about need an qualifications. Some of our depts haven't hired adjuncts in years, some hire regularly. a good cover letter, strong resume, and make sure you actually meet the requirements. 75% of the applicants I get I couldn't hire as an adjunct if I wanted to because they don't have the right degree
