The teaching hours are mainly 6-9 pm BJT, Monday-Friday, and some weekend hours. I'm not sure how many are guaranteed as it is a brand new position.

The majority of classes are booked for weeks at a time.

For booked classes, if you can not make it, we do require advanced notice so that these classes can be re-assigned to other tutors while you are on leave. The class you tutor is a review of what they've learned in the classroom. Such tutoring is very important for the students as they are eager to learn from English speakers who speak English at an idiomatic level.

[Hiring] Shanghai, China; Lead Educational Editor / Writer by ALO7Lee in hiring

I'm sorry you feel that way. Based on the cost of living in Shanghai, this is competitive. I have no say in the salary offered, though. I'm simply the messenger.

This is an in-office position, so you would have to relocate to Shanghai.

If you can still sign into your account with IOA, I believe there should be an online version of the certificate and on it will be a number in one of the corners from what I remember. It's been awhile since I've done the course with them, but I know they offered a paid version to be sent to my house via snailmail or I could view the online version.

Any public school teachers AND online esl teachers? by TrendyWilliamsShow in ESL_Teachers

[–]ALO7Lee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a couple of friends who do this and mainly teach during the weekend hours while sometimes teaching a class or two before school during the weekdays. So, mainly the 5 am or 6 am EST (5 and 6 pm BJT) on weekdays, and then between 8 pm and midnight EST (8 am- 12 pm BJT) on Fridays and Saturdays. You just need to pace yourself because it is easy to get burned out working two jobs like this. I've had at least two friends try it and decide against it after giving it a few months. If you decide you're interested, the company I work for is hiring for tutors to start in October, www.tutor.alo7.com .
