Pros

The students are nice and the schedule is flexible.

Cons

The pay is way below the pay of other TEFL companies. Getting booked lessons (which pay more) is nearly impossible. This company will deactivate your account and refuse to pay you any money that's remaining in your account. I've been trying to get my money so I can be done with this company but they won't give me my money unless I teach enough lessons to reach the payment threshold. Native Camp deactivated my account after a period of inactivity, so I asked them to reactivate it. They reactivated it but the system deactivated it the next day. I've asked them to reactivate it every few days for over a month. Each time it's reactivated, it's deactivated by the next day. I finally got a booked lesson a couple of weeks back, but when the account was deactivated at the very moment I was trying to enter the lesson to teach it! Native Camp then penalized me by taking money from the earnings they are continuing to hold hostage. It was their fault I couldn't teach the class! This company is a scamming joke! Do not waste your time applying!

Pros

Job opportunity for people who don't have a degree. They supply videos for you to familiarize yourself with the different lessons. Their communication has a quick turnaround.

Cons

Videos cannot actually prepare you for doing the actual lessons. Some sort of interactive system is needed to prepare teachers better for conducting the actual lessons. Communication method on the interface is a bit confusing - I cannot see which messages are unread-even when I toggle the icon to "unread messages"

Pros

1. Very flexible platform 2. No minimum hours required 3. mostly polite students 4. lesson material provided

Cons

1. The salary is pathetic and it is a shame they are still paying that same rate since they started. 2. They recently introduced a feature where you can adjust your rate but the requirements you should meet first are almost impossible to achieve. 3. very long waiting hours, too many teachers, very few students 4. a biased rating system that punishes teachers
