I was playing around when I checked your lessons you are clear and straight to the point.Thanks.Felicity.
Thank you so much Felicity - really appreciate that!
I had no idea this was an issue at the moment. Good on you for helping South Africans looking to teach ESL. Rewarding industry. Good luck to everyone.
Thanks Cal, yes it's a big issue for South Africans.
Great video, you are positive and not derogatary like some other channels.
I work for Magic Ears and I am from South Africa but I have been able to alter my accent to sound more North American. To be honest this has really helped me with getting hired with other companies too. I love working for Magic ears, I love their interactive platform and great cancellation policies. Thanks for all the information you make available to South African teachers!
Thanks for sharing!
Hi Ashanta, I tried applying last year and I didn't get in. I want to try again this year. Please share some tips.
Good day, I'm also interested in applying...can you kindly advise on how and what to expect to expect on the interview?
Regards
Don't lie you can't hide your accent
@@zamagazizuma7680 hi. Did you manage at the end?
Hey teacher dude! Thank you for caring enough to take the time to make this video. It could not have been more perfect timing for it to be in my recommended videos because for the past 3 weeks I've been researching about online ESL teaching and it has been so overwhelming and absolutely not straightforward as a South African. I'm sincerely grateful. I've just subbed 😊
Hi Juliette! I am so glad. Did you get your TESOL yet? I have a link for one that is only $19. Good luck with your job search!
@@onlineteacherdude1284 Thank you Online Teacher Dude, I'll check it out. I was going to get it once I start teaching on Cambly and then add it on afterwards and also apply to a site like Magic Ears because I am currently in my final year of studying B.Ed.
This is great info! I’ve always been interested in this as my husband’s family is from SA. His brother is a teacher as well!
Awesome, thanks Jenna.
I am a recruiter from Beejeen, we hire South African teachers.
I have been living in South Africa for 8 years. I really think the teachers from SA are amazing. Have no idea why the companies don't hire the teachers from SA.
Same! I don't understand :(
I will definitely be checking out Beejeen
Are Lesotho & Eswatini teachers regarded in Beejeen?
Hi. Can I email you? Which company do you recruit for?
@@ashensingh5147 yes you can but I can only really point you to videos on my channel. Cambly is my suggestion for non-chinese right now.
Thank you this was very helpful. I just started my TEFL course and it gives me hope for the future
Im so glad - good luck!
Im from South Africa. Just getting started in this world and this video has helped me alot. thank you so much.
I'm very happy to hear this!
Hey, how is it going sister girl?
Just starting out. This is informative and encouraging, thank you!
I am very glad!
Thanks for the tips. You helped me start the process of teaching English online.
So glad to hear it!
This video you did is really useful. Many thanks for this!
Thank you so much!
Love your videos! Please keep them coming 🙂
Thank you so much!
Thank you for your advice. It is much appreciated. You are doing an awesome job 👏👌
THanks so much!
Thank you for sharing this information 🙏. God bless you. Just subscribed.
Well thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this 🙇🏾♀️
You're most welcome Gladys! Hope you got some value from it.
Thank you Tim. Much appreciated
Very welcome
Thank you for this. I am considering doing online teaching part time. This is really helpful
You're welcome!
Tank you, I needed this .
Glad to hear it :)
Love this, it is really helpful thank you!!
Im glad to hear it!Thank you.
Thanks for your video, very helpful indeed.
Thanks Suhail! I am glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you 🇿🇦
You're welcome!!
Great video! I work on italki and Preply as an English tutor and am from South Africa. Both are great! Just a correction though. Italki takes 15% and not 11% as per your video. Also, for these platforms, you don't need any certification to become a community tutor. I did do my TEFL certification after already being on the platforms for around 6 months and then upgraded my profile to professional tutor. Verbling is also available to South Africans.
That's right, I must have misspoke - thanks for clearing it up!
@@onlineteacherdude1284 anytime
Short and informative!
Thanks Henli.
Thanks, for this video it was really helpful.
I am so glad!
Great video! Thanks for helping us! 🇿🇦😊
Thank you!
Hi thank you for the video I have just completed my 120hr TEFL course and am looking for companies that currently hire South Africans. Do you know of any companies at the moment?
Hi dear I follow you which company can you recommend for me that you wor for
Yes I would like to joining to ur school
this is awesome. italki is great!
Thank you for sharing that!
Thanks Tim.
Very welcome
Thanks for providing this information. I work in Tourism in Cape Town & as the entire industry has been decimated due to Covid, I did a TEFL & Teaching Business English course in the middle of 2020. The problem is that I do not have direct teaching experience although I do have a Bacehlor's degree & do product training & public speaking in my business. Are there any of these recommended companies where you don't have to have specific previous teaching experience? Thank you Tim.
Most don't require specific teaching experience, so you should be fine.
Lovely!
Thank you for the very informative video.
I would like to know what are the most common platforms(like Zoom) online tutors use to teach their students ?
If you are with a company, you use their builtin platform but outside of companies, yes, most people use Zoom.
TH-cam - do your algorithm thing!
Yes please!
I work for italki, they are awesome.
Ive applied for amazing talker and cambly both the companies didn't bother to respond to me lol.
Magic ears rejected me.
South African 😊
does Italk pay well? I heard some saying she earns 36k not sure if its true ? I just got my certificate.
@@lihlelee3826 I was a tutor and was charging very little hopefully now I'll get more, but that's possible since you set your rates.
Thanks for sharing. I do hope that you can find other work if you want. Glad iTalki is working well!
Don’t be sad that you didn’t get through to amazing talker, it isn’t as amazing trust me. That’s why I’m here on this video
@@tlotlo_tl nne ?! I’m sorry for your experience ♥️
Can be be anywhere in New York, Washington or California for any of these jobs in 2021. VIPKids Denies these states due to the new Laws.
Yes just VIPKid denies from WA and NY, but other companies do not.
Have you heard anything about other countries in Africa, specifically from Nigeria or Ghana? How can we find out if we are able to teach from those countries? Also, I think I need a TESOL to teach high school from the US on the Outschool platform. How can I get TESOL/TEFL certified to teach ESL for high schoolers. Thanks in advance.
Hi! Not sure about those countries, but I have links in the description of the video for a TESOL and a TEFL.
Hi there. I just wanted to ask regarding the laptop used to teach. Is it true that one needs to purchase a really expensive laptop to start teaching and that Intel celeron processers do not work for installing the apps needed to teach?
Hi I have never heard this before. I would say no you don't need a new laptop.
Hey all im a teacher bt proffesion. I have TEFL also im in the process of seeking a job online .
Awesome - all the best!
This video was really informative and I will certainly do some research on these companies. I am, however, curious about my situaton. I am a native english speaker and qualified teacher with a bachelor's degree in education and I majored in English. I have 14 years teaching experience. Is it still required of me to do a TEFL course? Your advice will be greatly appreciated.
Yes, companies in particular, require it. I have a cheap one you can do in the video description.
Can you please recommend places where one can do tesla course/certificate. Never heard of it
Hi, yes, I have a course that costs around $20 in the video description: onlineteacherdude.com/tesol1
Sorry for the intrusive question, but how much do you earn or can a person earn realistically per week/month working as an English teacher? Thanks and great video
Hi Greg- tough question to answer. I charge $45 / hour for classes with Chinese students. Companies pay much less. Really just depends on you and who you work for or how much you charge if you are doing private online classes.
Hello, do you have any suggestions for receiving payments to South Africa from students in China/abroad?
You can use Paypal but I have not seen something like Stripe invoicing with WeChat yet. If the students are not in China, you have a ton of options. I like Wise!
Cool video! Do you have any information about Preply revolving around South Africans?
I do not, sorry Liezi!
Hi Liezl! I am on Preply platform. What would you like to know?
@@allthingsenglishsa hi there you mentioned in your previous comment you started preply without any certificate. Can I have more information about that please. I would really like to start, but I can't afford a certificate right now. Thank you
Hello Online Teacher Dude! Really appreciated the free content you have been providing… it has been really helpful! I am not sure if I should do TESOL or TEFL course? Seems like TEFL is more recognised than TESOL. Is there ever a time where an application gets rejected when applying with TESOL and not TEFL certification? Thanks
Hi Cecilia, they are basically the same. TEFL seems to be more recognised for in person teacher though.
@@onlineteacherdude1284 Thank you so much for your reply! In this case I will do TESOL then:)
I also heard about preply if anyone knows about them please tell me tia
It's a marketplace but lots of people charging very low rates.
What mobile network do you use that have high connection speed?
Hi there- this is almost impossible to answer because I don't know where you live and I wouldn't know what to suggest. I live in Thailand and I just use a local mobile network.
With italki and amazing talker you create your own lesson material. Are there any lesson plans out there that are easily put together? Thank you in advance
I love offtoclass dot com - check them out!
@@onlineteacherdude1284 thank you for responding
Hi I do not have a degree plse advise
What do you feel is better? Magic Ears or Landi?
I have no experience with Landi but I have taught with Magic Ears....are you a south african teacher? Landi might be better for you. If you are not South Africa, Id definitely go with Magic Ears! Link in description to apply.
Hey bro, I applied to palifish over 2 and a half months ago but it still says that it's verifying my experience... I also applied to cambly and my profile is still under review ...What do I do ? I have been waiting for such a long time and nothing is happening ..
Hey, I would just keep emailing them and asking what's going on. It can take a while. For Cambly, try redoing your vide.
I live in Namibia... English is a official language here... Are there any companies that will accept me? Including other african countries
Sorry I am not sure who is hiring from Namibia - it's not so much as to the official language of the country, most companies want Native english speakers. Unfortunately, teachers from Namibia are not considered native speakers.
Hey would you recommend me to get airfibre?? I am from South Africa in the rurals so would airfibre work best for me?
I hope someone else can answer this for you because I don't know.
Hey im also in the remote rural and the reception in bad...i think i'll have to wait till January..moving to Pretoria
Any advice for me? I’m a third year education for English student in Namibia looking for online job
Sorry, I do not know of companies specifically hiring from Namibia.
Hi there, will they accept TEFL (doing it threw Global TEFL ) if you are South African??
Hi, will who accept TEFL? The companies? I am sure they will but you would need to check with them.
I am a 65 year old South African with an MBA degree can I teach english online successfully & what would be a cutoff age
Sure, I don't see why not! I would look into companies like Cambly to start. I haven't heard of any cutoff ages.
I had heard that some companies would not hire if your age was up there. Honestly, I have not found that to be true. I do not think I look my age, but my application has my date of birth. While I was working ( I was let go by an unnamed company due to internet issues) I was getting hounded by three companies. In the meantime, I plan to apply locally for an Assistant Librarian position. While I am clueless about the pay it could be a long-term position which is what I am looking for. Thankfully, the qualification does not include an MLS.
I am 65 years of age with an MBA can I successfully teach english online
Of course you can!
Hi teacher dude. I am from South Africa. I have a bachelor of education degree, 150 hour TEFL certificate and 17 years of teaching experience(face to face teaching). I want to do online teaching full time working with students from different countries. Which company do you recommend I apply to?
Hi reno, I have a website page for you : onlineteacherdude.com/teach-esl-online.
Palfish has bad reviews from internet but I would love to apply does their freetalk needs telf certificate?
Not sure how Palfish is doing these days....if they are teaching Chinese students, I would stay away because they won't be able to last that long.
I'm from cameroon 🇨🇲 with teaching experience and TEFL certification. Can I be employed in any ESL companies?
Sure, why not! Good luck to you.
Hi! I am a native speaker from South Africa. I do not have a bachelor's but I but I have a tefl/tesol. I have been applying as I am so interested but I keep getting rejected💔
Hi Lauren, sorry to hear. Have you tried Cambly?
@@onlineteacherdude1284 I did twice my first was rejected and I tried again😅 but no answer however Preply approved me last week so I've been tutoring on their platform😁
Hope it goes well but thank you for writing me back!
Hey, I'm South African 🇿🇦 I'm trying to get into palfish free talk. How do I get the app?
Download it from the app store.
Hi did you managed to teach on palfish?
I am from South Africa and want to start online teaching I have a TELF course
All the best!
Any of you have experience or history with 51 talk ?
I don't unfortunately.
I only want to teach adults. Is that Okay?
I have applied to Cambly but they do not get back to me.
I guess the answer depends on the company. What company? Does the company have adult students? Cambly does but , yeah, they dont take everyone and because of the load shedding in SA, that might be why - if you are a SA'n.
Hello Teacher dude. I'm a university student in south Africa and i want to teach english online. I have no experience but acceptibly fluid. I wanted to ask about TEFL/TESL fees. Is it montly or once off?
Its a one off price, just use the link and purchase. Thanks
I am from India. I have TEFL certificate. What companies should I look into to start online teaching?
I give you some resources for websites to search in my free course: onlineteacherdude.com/freecourse
@@onlineteacherdude1284 Thank you so much. Hope this will help...
I'd like to learn English but I don't know where to go online to meet of English teacher face-to-face
An English teacher, sorry for the mistake I made
Hi! There are lots of apps for learning English with teachers online. I suggest iTalki or Preply.
Cambly doesn't need a tefl certificate
Thats correct. :)
Good day teacher I'm looking for an English teacher to help me with English and I'm all the way from South Africa could you please help
Hi there - sorry, I don't find teachers to teach English unfortunately.
where can you start without a tefl
Potentially Cambly, but if you are trying to work for a company and teach English you need to get a TEFL.
@@onlineteacherdude1284 Hi Tim, I don't have Tesl I have been trying to apply for months now no luck, I do have an advanced Diploma in Animal science, please help on how I go on about teaching English online
Hey,i wanna learn english,but i'm blind,so i dont know what to do
Why does being blind affect learning English? You can do it!
@@onlineteacherdude1284 Thank you for that, but I don't have a teacher that can teach me English, I struggle to get a teacher
Hello there do they hire teacher from Morocco
Does who hire teachers from Morocco? What company?
I don't have any idea about that that's why I ask if you got any idea
What if English is your second language
Is your question, can you still teach online? Sure, why not!
Hi Tim I just watched your TH-cam video just now where trying to help South Africans to get a job for Online companies.I need a freebie course you are offering I want to open an Online Teaching School.Preswntly I'm doing my own homeschooling People are approaching me to help their children but now I need to start to market myself.Please comeack to me Tim .Felicity.South Africa.
Which company should I use for my tefl course?
You mean what company to apply to? These days, I have no idea anymore!
These hourly payments are a joke!
FOr some yea, but for some they are just what they need. Salaries differ around the world.
Hi I'm from south africa.. Trying to get into pal fish freetalk.. Can you assist n how to?
I never worked for them so unfortunately I cannot.
UMMM NO AMERICAN ACCENT IS neutral!!!
Don't understand sorry.
They flooded the market in Vietnam and dropped everyone's wages, getting into fights with locals, the SA give foreigners a bad name in Asia.
Sad to hear.
why what happened ?
Wow soooooo sad hey....I can't defend those acting a fool by getting into fights etc BUT on the other hand,companies and schools want to cut costs by hiring some nationalities (that can do the same job but pay them less)...Whether its online or in the classroom- also based on my experience in China
They? What a sick generalization.
I'm sorry you have had such bad experiences with South AFricans. Many of us just want to work hard and make a good life for ourselves.
He doesn't no how to teach and I am the president of south Africa and I will arrest him
😢😢😢
Are you mentally ok ?
