I hardly ever leave a review but I had to share this. I applied to cambly and used your tips for my video. I uploaded that afternoon and the next morning I had a "Welcome to the Cambly Tutor Community! email in my box that had come in at 4:02 am. Just wanted to say thank a million.
@@Rabits52 I haven't taught on Cambly in a little over a year, however, when I was teaching it was I believe $10 an hour for adults and $12 an hour for kids. I am currently a Pinterest Manager, but I may start trying to pick up a few classes a week, because I do miss teaching ;)
I like the fact that you don't talk fast in your presentation video - and that makes sense! I thought I should talk at a faster pace, but when you think the potential stundets can be only at the beginning of their learning journey, it's impetus you speak slowly and clearly, with many hand gestures to help them understand you better!!! ❤ Cambly seems like a nice platform to work on, too bad they only accept native English teachers.
I am very amazed of how you do your vedio. I am currently applying cambly but searching for courage on my intro vedio... Thank you of sharing you vedio hope that you next vedio will be my great help on my online teaching journey . God bless
For little kids there is usually a library or lessons and with adults they will sometimes have something specific. But most of the time adults just want to have free talk
Is the introduction video geared towards Cambly or the students? I am a bit confused if I should speak to a non native english speaker or to recruiters at Cambly
To whom should we address the video? the students? parents? or Cambly hiring team?? I cannot find a content that shares tips for those who have no online or formal teaching experience. Its hard to relate. anyway, thank you for the tips.
ThankYou Kirsty this is a really good video and loved your intro video for Cambly. You really demonstrate well the importance of being clear. Note: IMO the music on this is far too loud and intrusive, perhaps make it quieter?
Hi Kirsty. I love your intro video and i will definitely incorporate your tips in mine. Thank you for an awesome video. I am, however, struggling to speak to a computer/cellphone screen as there's no human interaction. How do you overcome this challenge? Please help.
I am so sorry I missed this comment. Speaking to your computer or cell phone definitely feels weird. I know some people will put an image of a loved one behind their computer or phone screen so they can feel like they have a focal point and are speaking with someone. I hope this helps.
🤗 been going through all the videos need to apply on Cambly your video is more simple and very helpful i really like it. But unlike me i don't have a degree or anything but really need to teach English 🙈🙈
I would say, you’ll never know unless you try. But I can’t really say for certain what the outcome would be. I’m sorry I couldn’t help more. Thank you for reaching out.
Hi Kristy, can you advise about the current hiring situation at cambly? Do you have any additional tips? I applied three weeks ago and hadn't heard anything back. I contacted them and they said they can't give personal feedback but said I should re-apply with a different email address in a few months. I'm an experienced ESL teacher. What do you advise? Thanks
Yes, they are always hiring, sometimes it can take a little longer to hear back from them. I heard back in 2 weeks for the kids side. That was about 2 weeks ago. The adult side took almost 4 weeks for me to get hired. I hope this helps.
When I applied, you had to apply for Cambly first and then cambly kids. I will try to work on posting the video I used for my kids application. Hopefully I can have one up next week.
Thank you this video Kristy! You you offer help to people who want to create their intro video? I am not techy at all and am looking for support. This is the first company that I am going to apply to. I just finished my Open Academy certificate. May I ask, what other companies do you suggest applying to?
Thank you so much. Yes, I used filmora wondershare for editing. It allows you to choose music and adjust the volume. Here is a link if you would like to check it out. I used it for the youtube video and for the intro video. It is really user friendly. filmstock.wondershare.com/referral-landingpage-campaign.html?frm=cf7859b
I believe there is a free version. I tested it out and then paid for it. But I do believe there is a free version. The free version may be a trial but it gives you enough time to edit your video.
Hi Kristy. Thank you for your video. I am Shivani, and i live in India. I am a certified TEFL trainer. My question is, what are my chances of getting employed by Cambly, as i belong to a non-native English speaking country? Are my chances low? Thank you.
Hi Shivani, Thank you for reaching out. I honestly don't know what the chances are. I would read what Cambly whether or not they hire non native speakers. :) I hope this helps. If I find more information, I will let you know.
Hi Kristy, I also have been hired, and I'm glad I found your video. Thank you for the information!!! Great job on your first TH-cam video. Where did you get your cute teacher T shirt?
Hi Teacher Kristy! I am planning on applying at cambly, but I have no experience applying before And wanted to know if I should add background music to my first introduction/application video ? Thank you in advance for the response 😊
Hello teacher Kristy! I really loved your introduction video. I've applied on the 28th of April and my introduction video doesn't have background music. How long do I have to wait to know if I got hired?
Cambly is a very low paying conversation site. It is not a teaching site and you are not looking for you to teach. You are not paid to teach. It has a very high churn of tutors who realise that it is simply not worth doing. The site requires you to have no quals or experience teaching. They can take a day to weeks, or months to get onboarded. They are looking for a wide age range, different accents, different locations, etc.
Hello mam this is Faraz from India l just want to know that how I could be the best tutor on cambly app as I want to explore my carrier as a best tutor. Hope to hear from you soon.

That is awesome and so exciting. Congratulations and thank you so much for leaving the review.
how much do you make right now can you give a range and how much did you make when you first started
can you tell me about your journey so far

I am so happy it helped.
What a great tip video!
Thank you.
Well! Your intro was pretty awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Hey! I wanted to know when teaching students is there a program we work with to teach? Or make it up ourselves? How do we know what to work with
For little kids there is usually a library or lessons and with adults they will sometimes have something specific. But most of the time adults just want to have free talk
Is the introduction video geared towards Cambly or the students? I am a bit confused if I should speak to a non native english speaker or to recruiters at Cambly
You're kind of speaking to both. But think of it as your introduction video to potential clients and try to appeal more to the students.
Wonderful job!
Thank you:)
To whom should we address the video? the students? parents? or Cambly hiring team?? I cannot find a content that shares tips for those who have no online or formal teaching experience. Its hard to relate. anyway, thank you for the tips.
It is kind of for all three. You are introducing yourself to potential students, and the Cambly hiring team.
Thank you! This was very helpful :)
I am so happy you found this helpful. Thank you for watching. I hope to have a new video posted tomorrow with my Cambly Kids introduction video.
What a gem!
ThankYou Kirsty this is a really good video and loved your intro video for Cambly. You really demonstrate well the importance of being clear. Note: IMO the music on this is far too loud and intrusive, perhaps make it quieter?

My cousin is very successful with Cambly and she does not have a degree :) You will do great.
Cambly hires almost anybody.
Hi Kristy, in your video, what did you use to make the book and game controller images appear on your screen? Thanks
It’s been a while since I have used it so I don’t remember, but I will try to find the name.
@@kristydelaine9208 Was it minicam? I heard that program in other demo videos.
@@steve9473 yes I believe it was manicam
Do you have to have a white background?
You do not, unless they have changed it. However for your profile picture they prefer a solid background.
This is wonderful ❤️.
Thank you
Why background noise?
The background music is not necessary, I just like to use it to make my videos a little more interesting. :)
You Looks so kind and generous... I would like to book learning lessons with you...
Awe ty
May I ask why it took 3 weeks? Cambly advertising says 3-4 days.
At the time I applied there was a huge influx of applications. Some people had to wait several months.
Hi Kristy! I just wanted to ask you how you created your cambly video. Did you use your phone or computer?
I used my computer:) I have used my phone in the past though.
@@kristydelaine9208 thank you so much!
Hi Kristy, lovely video! I was wondering what is the brand name of the headset you are using?
The headset is Logitech. I ordered it off of Amazon.
Where are you mam now ?
I hope she decided to leave Cambly because of all its negatives.
Hey Kristy, good day! please I want to know my fate as a Nigerian applying for a teaching job on Cambly. please what's your opinion or take on this?
I would say, you’ll never know unless you try. But I can’t really say for certain what the outcome would be. I’m sorry I couldn’t help more. Thank you for reaching out.
It's alright, well answered and I'm satisfied
well, my application is still under review.
@@brightkhaydigisatworld73 when my application was still under review I reached out through email. How long has it been?
just finished my application process today for the kid's tutor. And that of Adult tutors is currently in progress too. so its a matter of today.
Hi Kristy, can you advise about the current hiring situation at cambly? Do you have any additional tips? I applied three weeks ago and hadn't heard anything back. I contacted them and they said they can't give personal feedback but said I should re-apply with a different email address in a few months. I'm an experienced ESL teacher. What do you advise? Thanks
The music is too loud!
Ty for the advice
Hi, I didn't get an email,but when I sign in it show that I can do demo lesson. Does that mean I got accepted?
They may have changed some things since I applied. If it is giving you the option to do the demo then absolutely do it :)
Did you film with a phone or laptop?
Laptop
Is Cambly hiring at the monent or are they on a hiring freeze?
Yes, they are always hiring, sometimes it can take a little longer to hear back from them. I heard back in 2 weeks for the kids side. That was about 2 weeks ago. The adult side took almost 4 weeks for me to get hired. I hope this helps.
What software did you use to edit your video! Great structure!
Filmora wondershare
Your video is very helpful and well done. I have a question. Did you use music in your introduction video when you applied to teach with Cambly?
I honestly do t remember
Great video and thanks so much for the tips. I am just curious is this for Cambly or Cambly Kids are both?
This one was for Cambly. I will be posting my Cambly Kids intro video this week :)
Your music is too loud!!
Hello Kristy, please I am interested in Cambly kids, can you help me?.
When I applied, you had to apply for Cambly first and then cambly kids. I will try to work on posting the video I used for my kids application. Hopefully I can have one up next week.
Thank you this video Kristy! You you offer help to people who want to create their intro video? I am not techy at all and am looking for support. This is the first company that I am going to apply to. I just finished my Open Academy certificate. May I ask, what other companies do you suggest applying to?
I currently work for Cambly and Carrot Global. For Carrot Global they do require a Bachelor's degree.
@@kristydelaine9208 can you help people with their intro videos one on one?
I have only ever worked on mine. I could try to help though:) I know most people charge between $25 and $30 to edit people's videos for them :)
Me too 😊. I'm really interested ☝️. Honestly, I was amazed at your video. It's really nice 🥰.
Thank you so much your video is great ❤
Great Video. Can I ask how you added soft music to your introduction? TIA
Thank you so much. Yes, I used filmora wondershare for editing. It allows you to choose music and adjust the volume. Here is a link if you would like to check it out. I used it for the youtube video and for the intro video. It is really user friendly. filmstock.wondershare.com/referral-landingpage-campaign.html?frm=cf7859b

Hi Teacher Kristy! I am planning on applying at cambly, but I have no experience applying before And wanted to know if I should add background music to my first introduction/application video ?
Thank you in advance for the response 😊
I am so sorry. I am just now seeing this. No, you do not have to add background music. I know many tutors who were hired without any background music.

Yes, correct. I have also heard right now it is taking a little longer, because many tutors and teachers have been applying. :)
Also, the pay is lower than other companies, but Cambly is very flexible compared to many other companies. I love the flexibility.
@@kristydelaine9208 which are other companies like cambly
@@kristydelaine9208 Flexibility is about Cambly's only positive aspect.
Terrible loud music
