Absolutely I found they had students on the platform from 7am around to about 8pm, so definitely you can have students between 9 and 5. You can change your schedule at any time, it's really very flexible. I'd recommend setting up one week at a time. I noticed students booked quite last minute generally. I have a Yeti Nano microphone so no headset because my mic is very good (but costs around 100 GBP), and my cam is a Logitech Brio 4k, but you don't necessarily need that. A headset and 1080p Webcam should be fine. For the demo, if you're using windows, just go to the camera tool and you can record it there. Not sure about mac. Please use the link in my description if you decide to apply and if you have any more questions, Im happy to help.
Thanks so much for your video it was really informative .I live in the UK my children are at school . Is it easy enough to get lessons in at school day UK between 9am-3pm? Also can you say not book in for the holidays as I will be looking after kid.s 6 weeks in summer for example? Even though maybe would do some then! How did you record your demo video? and also do you need to use headphone with microphone attached. Anyway if you can answer my questions would really appreaciate it. Thanks so much
No, you don't need to speak the student's first language. It has long been argued by methodologists whether it is actually helpful or not, but the general consensus is that you don't need to speak a student's first language (although knowledge of their first language and how it is different to the target language is often helpful).
Well all the students I met seemed happy enough with that. I guess by the time they are signed up to the platform, they have been told this and sold the benefits.
Well as I say in the video, not something to replace your day job, but a decent side hustle because it's so flexible. Got a spare half hour? Do a class and make 6 euro. Better than doomscroll on your phone and make nothing.

How do you teach spanish speaking people? Do you speak spanish? Is that required?

How does the student think about getting a new teacher all the time?

pay in Euros is good, in USD it sucks :(
