Pros

competitive pay, flexible schedule, great cancellation policy

Cons

Getting rated by students and parents is quite overwhelming. It isn't a great motivator, especially when it affects your raises and bonuses. I am all for feedback, but this their method is not constructive. They will freeze your account with no notice and no explanation. You have to be the one to reach out to admin to find out what went wrong. Quite unprofessional in m opinion. Very easy to burn out since we are performing, rather than teaching. It takes ages to deal with administrative issues and they are not very helpful even when they do take the time to get back to you.

Pros

Pay is pretty good if you can commit to enough hours to earn bonuses

Cons

hours are Beijing time, so very early morning in the US They have switched to homeroom classes, so you can't just open your schedule on days you are available and get scheduled, which was what made this attractive before as a filler for when other jobs weren't as active
