Pros

-Higher pay than other ESL companies -Set your own hours. -Very Flexible sick/cancelling class system. -They take the time to train you well.

Cons

-Teaching 4 kids at a time (higher energy level needed than 1v1) -Tier system where you don't get access to 100% of the classes you open slots for unless you are the highest level (which after 3 years, I still am not) -Less available timeslots to book than other ESL companies (which lowers total pay) -Must leave a voice review after class for each student, which takes about 5-6 minutes per 30 minute class. -Referral rewards (to get other teachers onboard) pales in comparison to other ESL companies. Not worth the effort.

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
