Pros

- You get to work from home (although this is true of any online teaching company) - You get bonuses for various things

Cons

- The company charges students app £15 per lesson and contracted teachers receive £5, flexi teachers from £4.50-£6.25 - Teachers are expected to attend seminars, complete training, plan lessons, write reviews and attend meetings without any pay whatsoever - The company threatens the teachers with fines and loss of position if these UNPAID tasks are not completed to their ever changing standards - The manager is often very rude and patronising to teachers - Flexi teachers can go weeks without a booking while contracted teachers are fully booked - Ultimately, IQBar is an unethical company - they 100% treat teachers as employees (rather than independent contractors) but don't pay any sick pay, holiday pay or pension.

Pros

- You can work from home. - If you are in the CST time zone, like in USA you can work in the morning and then have all day free. - You get paid even if the student did not show. - The great staff. - You can work flexi time, like me. - teaching is a very rewarding experience and here you can have great students. - The best teachers are those who have fun!

Cons

I can't think of any.
