Pluspunten

Flexible scheduling of classes and ability to work from home. About the only thing positive I can say about the company is it does have a very flexible system but you have to get priority hours to make money on the system and the company is somewhat unreliable with how often they release priority hours. You can work from home so it does offer much flexibility.

Minpunten

Unprofessional staff So many trial students who are not serious about lessons Super slow and buggy system The staff is incredibly sensitive and unprofessional. Don't complain or question the system or they will immediately get very sensitive and difficult to deal with. The company's proprietary system is very slow and has many glitches but the staff will blame everything on you no matter what. Staff tried to tell me it was my internet connection when I could show speed tests showing I had an excellent connection. Be careful dealing with staff because they will deactivate you if you are too strong in your questioning. I believe the company constantly over staffs and then tries to find any reason to get rid of tutors who question the company. Also the company constantly gives out free trials out and many of these students are not serious at all about learning English. Prepared to have some derogatory insults hurled at you. I got called darkie and negro several times but towards the end the company provided a method to ban those types of students.

Pluspunten

Very flexible schedule (you create your own), can easily cancel classes without too much of a penalty (make every student that you like a "regular" student so that if you get penalized...only regulars can book you...you have a huge pool of regulars), Cambly provides lessons, you can use almost any website as long as you don't need to share login information, it's fun and easy, many students become like friends, you can learn about different countries, cultures, and languages

Minpunten

The pay. It has never increased in the 14 years that Cambly has been in business. They are starting to offer a new program called "Cambly Pro" where you can make $15 an hour, but you have to apply to be a tutor for it and you could be denied. You have to have a 99% rating for 3 months to even be considered. If, like me, you are open to all students (and not just your regular students that you have become friends with), your rating can vary widely. No matter how good of a tutor you are, you will not be everyone's cup of tea. Also, Cambly does not allow tutors to teach in some states in the U.S. due to labor laws.
