Pros

Great opportunity to work from home. Great opportunity to be connected to a database of thousands of potential students. If you are an excellent teacher, word will spread quickly and you will quickly accumulate lots of students. Some teachers are disgruntled because they are not able to acquire repeat bookings. There is lots of flexibility to adapt the lessons as you see fit. This is a great part time supplemental opportunity. I have always been paid on time and I've been here for 2 years. The stories about not being paid on time are from when a teacher is new and hasn't adequately or correctly submitted payment information. Teachers, make sure to follow your trainer's instructions carefully in order to receive your first payment on time.

Cons

You need to make sure that you are available for the hours you have promised. Like all of the ESL online companies, it is a competitive opportunity. You need to provide good teaching to get lots of students and succeed. The hours that you open are not guaranteed. IT depends on how you can stand out as an excellent teacher and get repeat students.
