Fantastic experience, love teaching here

PROS

I found some reviews here and kindly disagree as a teacher. I had a blast teaching through this company and the support was usually always super quick and very helpful as well as being accommodative to the teacher's needs, as well as the students. I remember a student purchased a package with me and then wanted to change to longer lessons. It was a bit tricky but the support team did a great job with notifying me as well as the student with utmost precision. I love getting new students as well having my regular students take lessons here with me. Sometimes the video system can be a little bit annoying because if you turn off the video during your screen share or if for some reason a lag happens, it takes time for the video to be visible for the other party. That is the only minus, everything is fair and square. They do a great job in advertising you and bringing you potential clients. Thanks!

CONS

Just that little video portal part otherwise great

Easy Platform to Use When Teaching Long-Distance Students

Using the TakeLessons platform is an excellent way to connect with students who have a need for your expertise but are located outside of your local area. It is a great way to connect teachers and students who are a good fit for each other (but otherwise would be unable to meet). Of course, you can also find local students.

PROS

The TakeLessons platform is easy to use and well-organized. You are able to keep track of all your students, view payment information, change your availability, and maintain other account information. The online classroom is simple, but very easy to use.

CONS

I do not believe that anyone could utilize TakeLessons as a primary source of income because there are not many students to teach (in my categories). Students also tend to be unreliable and uncommitted.

Not my favorite

Understand of how online promotion works.

PROS

I love how easy it was to get started with promoting my lessons. They give you all the tips you need to get your promotions started. You can even add current students to the sight.

CONS

What i don't like about this sight is that even if a potential student contacts you, they will still refer them to someone else. At the end of the day, they are about getting their money though they make it seem like its about supporting you. I did not get one student using this program.
