Pros

This platform has great flexibility, you make your own hours. Cambly is always trying to update things and communicate about how to make the experience better, and it super easy to use.

Cons

You have a 12 hour window to cancel your time, you can do it after if there is an emergency, but if you do it for an undisclosed number of times it will start to effect your ability to have more hours. While I understand it, If I wake up sick under the 12 hour range I am scared sometimes to cancel classess and have it effect further buisness.

Pros

Very flexible schedule (you create your own), can easily cancel classes without too much of a penalty (make every student that you like a "regular" student so that if you get penalized...only regulars can book you...you have a huge pool of regulars), Cambly provides lessons, you can use almost any website as long as you don't need to share login information, it's fun and easy, many students become like friends, you can learn about different countries, cultures, and languages

Cons

The pay. It has never increased in the 14 years that Cambly has been in business. They are starting to offer a new program called "Cambly Pro" where you can make $15 an hour, but you have to apply to be a tutor for it and you could be denied. You have to have a 99% rating for 3 months to even be considered. If, like me, you are open to all students (and not just your regular students that you have become friends with), your rating can vary widely. No matter how good of a tutor you are, you will not be everyone's cup of tea. Also, Cambly does not allow tutors to teach in some states in the U.S. due to labor laws.
