Many promises, not a lot of money.
Written by Online English Language Teacher (Current Employee) from Kingston, ON on 26 November 2017
Trying to fill up your schedule is the luck of the draw. If you are a male teacher, you will be booked solid from the second you open your available time slots. If you are a female teacher, you need to know that it will take weeks or months before you will see a full schedule. Then, you are at the mercy of parents' reviews - they don't understand what - more... assessments are and will trash your rating by accusing you of not teaching their child. You will live or die by their reviews. - less
ProsSupposedly, one can "make their own schedule" but peak times are determined.
ConsTrying to live on the paltry salary.

Great stay at home position
Written by ESL Teacher (Current Employee) from Toronto, ON on 25 October 2017
I have been working for VIPKIDS for the past few months and I love it. You get to stay at home and work in your pajamas. There is a great Facebook community of fellow teachers for support and the students are very cute and fun to teach. You also get to learn a little bit about China from your students. It's very rewarding and alot of fun.

The - more... interview process can be quite difficult therefore you need to really prepare for the mock interviews. Strong internet connection is also important because you get dinged or poor ratings from parents if your internet connection is not strong. - less
ProsMake your own schedule, one to one teaching, get paid if students does not show up or cancels last minute, get paid in US dollars, the lessons are already planned, work in the mornings and the rest of the day is yours
ConsEarly morning, you have to be up early mornings when students are awake, they have zero tolerance of sick days, you can only get a hold of management via ticket on Freshdesk
