      ESL Tutor Interview

      Nov 29, 2018
      Anonymous employee
      Grand Blanc, MI
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at VIPKid (Grand Blanc, MI) in Sep 2018

      Interview

      First, you will submit an online application. Once your application has been approved, you will be invited to teach some mock classes in front of an interviewer. Once you pass the mock teaching portion of the interview process, you will be able to start teaching. You are now an independent contractor with VIPKid, make sure you take the classes they offer to help prepare you in the classroom and to appeal to parents who will be booking classes!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The hardest part was the mock teaching. This is not a typical interview. They are assessing your teaching abilities and your ability to use TPR (total physical response). You can find lots of teaching videos that will help in your interview process on YouTube.

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at VIPKid (El Paso, TX) in May 2019

      Interview

      I attended a Fast pass training. Enable me to skip the actual interview. I scheduled a mock class which I did within a week after this training. At that mock class I became familiar with the platform and they learned my teaching skills.

      ESL Tutor Interview

      Sep 7, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 3 days. I interviewed at VIPKid in Aug 2017

      Interview

      I applied and got asked to interview immediately because of my experience. I recorded my interview but did not pass the first time due to lighting of the room and my lack of use of hand gestures and expressions. I tried a second time but got rejected. You basically have to be really cheesy to get hired.
