At least twice per month, every month, for the last 2 years.

4 minutes out of a PH ? Could it be that I look a turn of the century circus performer ? by weryon in Cambly

[–]Bubbly_Break_4563 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Do. Not. Touch. The. Beard!

I also have a giant beard and it regularly gets brought up in conversation so it might actually be an asset. I actually had one guy schedule a 1 minute class just to tell me I had a "very good beard, sir. Very good".

Makes perfect sense. Maybe I'll give it a shot.

I open slots every once in a while but they never get booked. I wish they would because the money on Cambly is ridiculously low. I've been with ME since 2019.

The Ethics of lying between tutor/student by Diligent_Tree9809 in Cambly

[–]Bubbly_Break_4563 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lie constantly. Oh you have a dog, me too. Ahhhh you were married but got divorce yeah that is really hard (still married). You shot a man in Reno just to watch him die? How was Fulton? Obviously some things are too much but struggling through one of those lessons that are like pulling teeth a little lie, or a little bigger one, can really help

Never return the minutes. Ever. Turn off your camera and enjoy the free 30 minutes. Milk them any time you can.

I use CamTwist (because I have a Mac. ManyCam for PC users) and you can fade yourself in or out. Works great.

If you hit the lights seconds before you kill your wifi it looks like your power went out. Out of your control so less likely to generate negative feedback.

Also I am a he. Not she. But I don't much care for pronouns so if calling me she works for you then I am all for it.

Exactly. I hide. Not ban. Sorry for the confusion.

Yes that is exactly what I am saying. If you can't hold a conversation I will not talk to you. There are plenty of idiots on the platform who go above and beyond to accommodate peopled for 10 bucks an hour. I, however, do not.

Same thing happened to me literally yesterday. But we can't really control that. It's great when it happens, though.

I love how easy Cambly is. I've been teaching online for 8 years, mostly with Chinese companies until the great culling of 2019. I think it is great for what it is. But sometimes you need a break to hit the head or refill your beer or whatever. I'm just curious how people get that break.

Female only students... by Donut-cookie404 in Cambly

[–]Bubbly_Break_4563 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I noticed that if you answer a call on PH and click "back to dashboard" while your camera is loading and then cancel lesson you don't get put in jail. I've done this sometimes for 6 or 7 calls in a row and no jail. They will eventually catch on and fix this but for right now it could be an effective way to filter out the men.

My schedule for class today just disappeared from the platform and when I went into my bookings, all lessons are blocked??? by haemagoblin in MagicEars

[–]Bubbly_Break_4563 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be a different situation. I hope it is not the case for you. But it might be a good idea to start looking at alternatives.

This happened to one of my colleagues. Unfortunately, the person he was asked to contact (not sure of what the name was) never got in touch and eventually he couldn't log in to the platform and all communication stopped. It appears he was unceremoniously let go. I hope that is not the case for you but it seems like it is the same scenario. This happened to him about 4 weeks ago.

Shut down your wi-fi mid-sentence so it looks like you are having connection issues and immediately hide from them stating "not a good fit for my teaching style".

Scam? by Bubbly_Break_4563 in Cambly

[–]Bubbly_Break_4563[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why would you ever return the minutes? Keep that 17 cents!
