VIPKID has a 6-cancellation limit. That means if you are not granted “soft” or “medium” cancellations, and you tally up to 6 total you will be at risk for termination.
Only 6% of all applicants get hired every month. This is because a lot of applicants get stuck in the process and many others fail along the way. That being said, getting hired by VIPKID is not an impossible task. There are currently over 60,000 teachers, including myself, who have passed the interview process.
No, VIPKid is not a Pyramid Scheme.
With VIPKid, there are no fees to “join.” It's a fairly rigorous interview process, but there is no money required. You are interviewing for a job, and if hired, you get paid.
Despite the numerous complaints, VipKid is a legitimate company. There are definitely some glaring problems with it though, so be sure to weigh the pros and cons yourself before you start. Some of the pros of working at VipKid are: You can work from home.
I will note, however, that VIPKID has blocked particular students from particular teachers schedules. This often happens often multiple and extreme instances and several tickets. The teachers should not have to go through that system and simply should be able to block a student.
Because VIPKid understands that “life happens,” and we don't always have adequate documentation, we are given a total of 6 regular cancellations per contract. Use these sparingly! And be aware that your “Participation” percentage will drop with any teacher cancellation.
4 answers. While it's not required, it is preferred. It is expected that you will have a headset when you teach. If you want to make a good impression during the interview process, you will have one there, too.
VIPKID can look just about however you want it to: You can turn it into a full-time job and work all hours of the night, earning $4,000 per month. Or you can do what I do and teach a few hours each morning, earning between around $150 and $700 per month depending on your schedule.
Since they don't ask for proof of a degree right off the bat, it has applicants wondering, “does VIPKID check for a degree?” The answer is yes, VIPKID does check your degree. ... VIPKID spends 7-10 days checking all of your documents to make sure you qualify before you can begin teaching.
This is how much you will get paid per 25 minute class you teach. It can be anywhere from $7 - $8 per class (though we are seeing $7.50 as the new norm), or $14-$16 per hour. But the reason it is called the “base” pay is that VIPKid has so many awesome incentives to encourage their teachers to excel.
Flexible to work from anywhere/anytime, set your own schedule, kids are great, material is premade. I like VIPKID quite a bit! I think a lot of the job is knowing what you're signing up for. You're not going to get benefits like health care, and hours worked are entirely dependent on the clients you receive over time.
VIPKid says you can use Firefox, but many have found that the VIPKid platform runs better on Google Chrome during the hiring process.
