Pros

You are guaranteed back to back lessons if that`s what you want. In addition to 30 hours of guaranteed lessons per week.

Cons

You can be the best teacher in the world and they will always look down on you by telling you what you do wrong all the time. It`s a place that brings your slef esteem rock bottom. There is no sense of team work and they prevent trainers from interacting with each other for a mysterious reasons. Even if you work for 15 years you won`t get a raise. They take advantage of the current economic crises and the fact that many of the teachers are desperate for the work. They care more about NST rates than the health of the employees. If you work 70 hours a week and don`t make it for 3 of the lessons they will be on your tail. Be ready to feel stressed out and underpaid for the amount of work you do. You need to listen, teach, speak take notes while in your sessions and do extra work preparing reports. They pay different teachers different hourly rates. Horrific.

Pros

You meet many interesting people around the world. The people who work for the company are friendly and helpful.

Cons

It's a fast-paced environment and can get very busy but that's not always a bad thing because it's never boring.

Pros

For a side hustle, maybe.

Cons

Toxic work environment, rules on the fly, no respect, arbitrary, shenanigans for not paying, changing payment methods in detriment of the trainers, negative work environment, completely unmotivating, never appreciate all the clients that appreciate a trainer, and politicize the teaching methodology to spread environmentalism and pro-big tech agenda ideals.

This review raises a number of serious accusations, and we feel it's important to respond to them directly. Suggestions that the company engages in "shenanigans" to avoid paying trainers, advances political agendas or dismisses people for being honest simply do not reflect how we operate. Transparency is one of our core values, and payment structures, incentives, and policies are communicated very clearly. We also reject the suggestion that trainers are not respected. Trainers are at the centre of what we do, and respectful, professional communication is something we expect from everyone in the organisation. While your overall view is clearly very negative, spending more than eight years with the company suggests there were aspects of the role that continued to work for you over a very long period of time. We wish you the best going forward.
