Pros

Job is fun. Students are great. Salary is real time. Flexible work hours. Can take leaves anytime as long as I follow 10-day rule to avoid penalties.

Cons

Sometimes the platform experiences some technical issues.

Pros

- Flexible work from home setup. - Opportunity to teach kids internationally. - Clear curriculum provided, so lesson prep is minimal.

Cons

- Cancellation policy might change from 5 days to 10 days for teachers, while students can cancel or reschedule with only 8 hours’ notice and teachers don’t get paid. - Vacant slots are hidden from students, making it harder to attract new learners and grow schedules. - Communication is poor—teachers are directed to bots instead of real support staff, and surveys feel ignored. - Policies feel increasingly like micromanagement, despite teachers being labeled as “independent contractors.” - Surveys and feedback channels exist, but teacher concerns are consistently ignored.
