Pros
The students are the only redeeming part of this job. They’re respectful and eager to learn, and most instructors stay longer than they should because of them — not because of the company itself.
Cons
This company does not value its teachers in any meaningful way. There are no raises, no matter how long you work or how well you perform. Management ignores messages, avoids direct questions, and provides almost no support. Communication is slow, inconsistent, or nonexistent. The pay is shockingly low for American instructors, and the advertised $12–$15/hour is absolutely misleading. Once you factor in prep time, unpaid breaks, and the lack of guaranteed hours, the real income is significantly lower. What makes it worse is that the company reports over $8.2 million in revenue while refusing to invest even minimally in fair compensation for the people actually doing the work. I have worked for several overseas ESL companies — including Chinese platforms — that paid better, communicated better, and treated teachers with more basic respect than this one. If you are a trained, experienced, or educated teacher, do not waste your time here. This job is only suitable for someone looking for extremely part-time, low-pay, fill-in work — not for anyone who depends on teaching as their profession.
