Pros

Magic Ears treats you as part of a family. They are extremely courteous and gracious. If you are sick, they want you to rest. You need to travel? No problem. The pay is wonderful, the highest I've found. I make $22 per hour. There is opportunity for secondary positions pretty quickly. I've worked for them for 5 1/2 months and already have a supervisory role also.

Cons

They are a newer company so "all" the hours of teaching aren't offered quite yet, but they will get there as they grow :)

Pros

The curriculum to teach is very fun and interactive. The schedule is very flexible. Working for ME is like joining a big family. Its very nice. The students are very fun to teach. I really like the training that is provided and that ME is always looking for ways to help us to grow and develop as a teacher. They reimburse you for the t-shirt cost. I also like being able to work from home and not worry about transportation to get to work. Its a wonderful company to work for.

Cons

The parents can sometimes give low ratings but ME reviews them and they have us in their best interest. I wish that there was another feedback process.

Pros

-Great pay! Starting is $22/hr after bonuses. $18/hr without bonuses -You can qualify for raises every 6 months and can earn up to $26/hr -there are trainings and workshops available to help teachers succeed and grow -secondary positions available, giving teachers to opportunity to work full time -emergency cancellations are allowed -The company feels like a family, and you are not treated like just a number -Very fun and engaging curriculum -1v4 classroom -it's a newer company, so there is LOTS of room for growth, and the company is great at receiving feedback and making changes to become better. -Understanding of life circumstances, for example, pregnancy, sickness, family obligations, etc. -Diversity among teachers In my opinion, the pros far outweigh the cons when it comes to Magic Ears. They are by far the best ESL company out there. They love their teachers and want us to succeed. There will always be complaints about any company (you'll never find a perfect ESL company), but they are truly trying to become better and they listen to their teachers. Any negative review you find is from someone over exaggerating about a flaw the company has. Magic Ears will always listen to constructive feedback!

Cons

-early hours for teachers living west of the US -booking rate is low for the first few weeks to about a month or so in the beginning before you rank up as a teacher -Be aware that there are some growing pains (as with any new company)
