      "Ratings" from Children needs to go

      Pros

      - Work from Home - Teaching curriculum already done and prepared, no need to prepare entire lessons - The carrot system to cancel classes hassle free

      Cons

      - Getting raises & "ranking up" in teacher status is based on an O.P.V made up of factors out of teacher control such as getting trial students in your classes, and them converting to being Magic Ears students after completing your class. - Also part of the OPV is student ratings - out of 5 stars. It's literally small children assigning subjective star ratings and leaving gibberish comments like "alkjhasdgjbadg" that are deciding your ability to get a raise. Non-justified 1-star ratings that pull down your OPV are never cleared away by Magic Ears. It's demoralizing and disrespectful for students.

      Five stars minus booking and hours!

      Pros

      I have been working with Magic Ears for a few months and I had been working with other companies as well. Magic Ears is so innovative and family-like compared to all the other companies! You feel valued and part of a supportive community. The company is constantly bettering the teaching platform based on the teachers' feedback. For example, one lesson was extremely long and I did not finish it (which results in penalities) but after my feedback to the company, they cut down the number of slides! I love the platform, it is very easy to use, interactive and fun. The teachers do not get penalized for sick days or emergencies. The pay is great with the bonuses for entering class early and opening 60+ slots a month. I love that there is room to grow in the company too. I quit all of my other online teaching jobs because I love love love Magic Ears and want to put in all of my effort into bettering my teaching, ranking up and growing with the company! I would definitely recommend it to other teachers. It has been a great experience thus far.

      Cons

      The biggest downside, in my opinion, is the rankings and how it affects bookings. You enter the company as a Freshman and open up to 10 slots a week (which is good that you start slow and get instant feedback from the team to improve your teaching style because it takes time to adapt to the style) then you can move up to Junior. I have about 12-15 classes a week, but I would love to have more. I hope to move up as a senior teacher in order to have more bookings, but moving up is based on parent feedback and team evaluations. So I hope that a past error/technical issues will not hinder me from moving up in the company now that all of my problems have been fixed! Also, I hope that there are more available hours in the future. They are working on it :)

      Pros

      MagicEars has so many good qualities that I have witnessed since joining the company in September 2017. I am grateful for this opportunity to teach a second career in my mid-50s. The pay is good, the staff is flexible and the children are teachable. The students have the ability and the desire to learn. The biggest pro as a Teacher is seeing the world through the children 's eyes. I learn as much from them as they do from me and that is the biggest reward of this position.

      Cons

      NOT FOUND. It's a great company.
