      Pros

      I love the teacher health account. It reduces the burden of cancellation fees and late charges. I can cash out anytime I want, without waiting for paydays. The platform has a large number of students, and the company releases webinars and training for teachers' continuous learning.

      Cons

      Even though new teachers only get $4/hour, the company requires high teaching standards. Unannounced assessments and evaluations further demotivate them, as their salary fluctuates based heavily on their teacher level. It would be preferable if the company increased the hourly rate to $5 instead of relying on this unpredictable system.

      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.
