Thank you for your feedback. Our salary structure is aligned with industry standards for part-time roles, and raises are provided after performance evaluations, typically after one year, as outlined during the hiring process. We also offer flexibility with work hours, including weekend shifts, which are discussed upfront. If work hours are assigned to you, management will reach out during those times. It's imperative to remain available at your desk during these hours. We continue to work on improving the experience for our team.

The only silver lining of this place is one the students are absent so you get to rest a little.

Minpunten

One of the most common concerns among employees is the low salary. The company keeps responding that it's "within industry standards" and "agreed upon," but what they don’t mention is that when you start, they only highlight their cheaper subscription plans. In reality, more than half of the clients pay for premium plans, yet this is never reflected in teacher salaries. Additionally, despite a contractual promise of a yearly salary review, this does not happen. Beyond pay, the structure for student progress is nonexistent, leaving teachers to manage everything on their own. This makes the job far more demanding than it should be, especially considering how little students pay relative to their high expectations and treatment of teachers. The platform asks teachers to treat students with exceptional care, but when students are rude, provocative, or downright disrespectful, there is little to no support. The salary is simply too low for teachers to tolerate such behavior in silence. It’s disappointing that some accept these conditions. The lesson materials are another major issue. They are created by individuals with no teaching qualifications—many come from finance or media backgrounds with no knowledge of pedagogy. As a result, the lessons are poorly structured, ineffective, and make teaching much harder than it should be. Lastly, there is a shocking pay disparity among teachers based on nationality. Some nationalities receive fewer lessons but are paid more, even when others (who are paid less) have clearer accents and are preferred by students. This unfairness is frustrating and discouraging for those who put in the effort and deliver quality lessons. Oh and one last thing! The low salary is always late because the company's financial transactions are shady .

We take feedback seriously, but it is important to clarify misinformation and present an accurate picture of our working environment. At Albert Learning, we uphold transparency and fairness in our salary structure, which aligns with industry standards and is agreed upon before employment. Claims of misleading pay practices are inaccurate, as compensation is based on experience, qualifications, and market conditions, and not nationality. Additionally, salary transactions are processed directly from the official source, ensuring full transparency and compliance with financial regulations. Salary reviews are conducted annually based on both conduct and performance within the organization. If an individual does not meet the required standards, they become ineligible for the appraisal. We have clear policies regarding student behaviour, and disrespectful conduct is not tolerated—teachers are encouraged to report issues for appropriate action. Furthermore, a thorough review and investigation are conducted in cases of student misconduct to ensure appropriate action is taken. Our lesson materials are designed with input from experienced educators to ensure quality and effectiveness, providing students with a structured and systematic learning plan. Everything is carefully organized, leaving nothing solely to the teacher’s discretion. We value our teachers and continuously strive to provide a professional and supportive work environment.
