    Oh...I just wanted to add a few thoughts. For cambly adults, even though the pay is lower, I have stayed booked solid for all of the slots I open. Everyone is still in that covid frame of mind with learning new skills. But, mostly, these adult students have told me that covid really set them back on their English speaking because they may not be going into their offices or speaking with native English speakers as much right now. Many are professional looking for business English. Many are women from Saudi Arabia just looking to connect (likely with other women) from the US. I had "coffee " in an outdoor cafe with one the other day. It was just like we were two old friends talking as she has been my regular student since I started. I enjoy her so much. And I think it's enjoyable for her to speak with someone outside of her country. I have a ton of regulars from Japan as well as South Korea. We talk about our daily routines. They ask questions about homeschooling because they don't do that there. I love it when they ask me about socialization. Lol. 😅
    Gosh I just really wish it paid more because the cambly adults are awesome. I've learned so much about other cultures. Did you know that you can be born in South Korea on December 31st and be 2 years old on January 1st? I had no idea but that's a real thing. I've learned that people in Saudi Arabia go to sleep at 6 am a lot because it's so hot so they do their activities when it's cooler and sleep in the daytime unless they have school or work. Ha!
    I would definitely do a mix of cambly kids and adults. The adults want to be there. They are mostly serious about learning English and it's nice knowing that we can help people in other parts of the world in some small way.
    Hope this honest and small collection of thoughts helps someone....

    I adore Cambly Kids! I had been considering it for a back up company since last year, but I finally got around to applying a few months ago and it has been a lifesaver! I was originally just going to use it for supplemental income, but now with the paycuts, I'm still able to pay my bills and pay them on time thanks to their weekly payments through Paypal. The bonus is a huge help as well. It's also been really nice being able to teach between 12pm and 4pm EST without having to worry about getting up extra early or staying up super late to get more hours. It was one of the best decisions I ever made and I just wish had applied sooner.

    This is a really well done video but there’s no way I could go work for Cambly kids. Minimum wage in my state is $13.50 with most jobs lately offering a starting pay upwards of $15 an hour. I also don’t want to bring down the value of ESL teachers. I know this is an awesome wage in the Philippines but I hate seeing US and Canada-based teachers working for this low pay.

    Hi Tim, I've been enjoying your videos over the last few days as I explore the options of teaching online. I do have a question about Cambly/Cambly Kids. If you are accepted to teach on both, do their calendars talk to each other so you don't accidently book an adult and a kid in the same time slot?

    Are the slides for Cambly kids already created or do we have to create them ourselves? Is it the same for the adults? I've been with Cambly for a year now, but I haven't taught yet. When I applied it was required to teach adults first before being allowed to teach children. Can I bypass teaching adults? I'm more used to teaching children through VIPKID. I've taught Korean adults through morning Voip phone calls and we would discuss topics or read from the provided online books. I've also taught for an ESL company where I was projected onto a large screen within a classroom for kindergarten children and 5th graders to read stories, sing songs and to practice critical thinking.

At that time you had to have an account as an adult instructor first then you could apply to the kids' side.
