Vantaggi

The system that OKpanda works with (the syllabus, the booking system, the lesson reviews) are really great and effective, which makes it easier to the teachers to work with as well. The team is also really friendly and are open to giving help/feedback whenever needed. I believe they also hire people who don't have a degree or formal experience in teaching (though with a low base pay), which is good for people who want to get into TESL but don't have credentials to be hired in a more formal institution.

Svantaggi

Because it's still a growing company, the company's budget doesn't pay the teachers as high as other teaching platforms. It also has readings (and quizzes about those readings) to do about the updates of the application/teacher's dash.

Vantaggi

When I first started working with them I didn't have many bookings and was just about to quit, when they scheduled a call with me and offered several different ways which could help me improve my booking rate. The team leads are always there to help and provide support, but they do require you go through the policies and everything before you start. Other teachers who work there are also great - most of them are willing to share their experiences and advice with you and every month, there is a ceremony organized where they compliment their teacher's work. After working at the company for a year, I was offered a raise (but I understand the company has a new owner now who invests more in the VTs) from $3.25 to $4 for 25 minutes. The platform they use is great and the lesson materials are prepared for each lesson, you don't have to prepare anything extra because the materials are just enough and the students seem to enjoy them.

Svantaggi

They have this instructor manual with all the requirements and policies you need to know. This explains how the platform works, how you get paid, what happens when you cancel lessons, etc. But I guess you really need to know this if you intend to teach here.
