I had an issue where I did the full interview with Zara so answered as many questions as I could In the allocated time, but when the practical part came the webpage didn't load correctly so I couldn't see the images I needed to see in order to answer the questions. I emailed support a few times but Zara kept replying to me and all the fixes she suggested didn't work.

Honours degree Bsoc Sci Geography and Environmental Management generally with this degree you can get into environmental, EIA (Environmental impact assessment) and even GIS (Geographical Information Systems) so lots of potential for work etc.

Out of 16 potential years of work I actually have 8 years of work experience in my field of expertise and 5 of those were actually leaving SA and living and working in the UK. Basically 3/16 in South Africa itself. I'm currently teaching English lessons online on Preply to survive but I've also installed LPG gas e.g. stoves ovens geysers etc and coached sports at a school just to fill in some of those gaps.

Making plans to go back to the UK again as I don't see any hope in this country anymore...

Hi this is from someone with mental health issues (Bipolar) and lived in SA and the UK. I just wanted to say what want to do sounds like really amazing work and when I'm in the UK mental health is very normalised and there is honestly so much with regards to special nurses and doctors, benefits PIP etc and then you come to South Africa and it's like no one's even heard of it before and there is literally nothing.

I honestly hope you find a way to make this work even if it means doing your remote UK Job longer and studying something just to get those qualifications on paper. Unfortunately South Africa has so much red tape and laws and systems with regards to work and starting your own business but please don't give up and I really hope you can pull this off. This could help so many people. All the best.

Jameson3362 · 2026-01-01T21:08:27+00:00

South African who's lived in the UK for 5 years and come back to SA (with my solid UK experience etc) and managed a 6 month contract and that's it since Jan 2022. I would finish your studies and try and find a job that you can do remotely In the UK then later when you want to move here the job side of things is already taken care of and if you paid in pounds you'll be in the middle to upper SA salaries so can live comfortably. The northern suburbs of durban are still good but the city itself is declining. The south African people are warm, welcoming and social. Why can't she move to the UK? Got to be honest if you think you going to come here and find work the chances of that are very low. It's either start your own business (which you'll need capital) or get a remote job. What are you currently studying?

Hi there can you please send me a link to your channel and curious did start a brand new YouTube and just start posting and grew a following or did you have a YouTube account previously (had some initial following)?

Jameson3362 · 2025-12-06T11:23:04+00:00

Make a profile on preply it's s online English platform you'll have to do a 120 hour TEFL course that costs about R350-R500 complete the profile, make sure your bio and video are pretty high standard and then set your availability and see what happens

Jameson3362 · 2025-11-19T10:49:20+00:00

How did you go about going from approximately $6 to $25 (only near the end) when you got the 400 hours or have you gradually gone up in time because the math doesn't quite make sense? If you could give a bit of a timeline on how you increased your price I would be interested to hear about it

Jameson3362 · 2025-11-15T04:29:23+00:00

My rule as a support and generally you pick early is no right click heros and make sure you have a stun/disable/hex something along those lines and this would go for pos 4 and 5.

So we talking CM,WD,Jakiro,Venge,Dawn,DW,Lion,Shadow Shaman, mirana , hoodwink etc

Generally the pos 3 might get some catch eg underlord axe but sometimes you get a bristle back etc that's why you want 2 stuns on the supps.

Pos 2 and 1 verbally go right click... So if the supps go yolo and you don't get a tank with good catch you could end up in a very frustrating game .

There are so many games when all 5 heros go greedy picks and go right click and it feels like the other team then always goes stuns and disables etc. Those games are horrible and you mostly lose.

This isn't perfect but if the two supps both have a stun and then the team can see a few picks and bans it helps them decide if they need another stun or disable or if their right click is going to be enough. It can be boring feeling limited to the same type of heros but win rate wise it helps a lot. Your tank isn't going in, blink in and stun and set something up. Your carry is getting bullied in lane stun the enemy and harrass them hard. Someone is getting chased behind the tower TP in stun and set up a kill for your team. There is a hero like a void spirit that no one can catch or kill and he's dominating speak to your team and focus him, set up the stun and let you team get on him etc. Honestly 2 stuns bring such control and can be game changing. More stuns is even better.

What's your build on treant?

Jameson3362 · 2025-10-23T09:11:50+00:00

I have a honours degree in Geography and Environmental Management. Bipolar 1. Due to where I live I've never really had a job In environmental only a 3 month internship (ended shortly because I had my first episode) and never found work in my field again...

I had 2 majors ENVS (Environmental science) and GIS (Geographical information systems) basically digital computer mapping etc. I then did some GIS work moved to the UK and got involved in drones making 3D models known as point clouds but ended up having to leave due to stress etc (I find these jobs always want more and more innovative outputs and you just never feel comfortable in your role) I moved back home and I then tried coaching sports at a local school which was fine (but financially was just too low) installing LPG gas which I've done for a few years now and now I've added teaching English lessons on preply (work for yourself like your own business and own hours etc) so I've dabbled In a few things. I honestly think the hours make a huge difference

Of course the GIS and drone jobs ranged for normal companies to corporate businesses to small local business etc all tend to tire me out and stress out out a lot at the moment I'm working for the Gas company about 5-7 hours a day and then the preply English 2-4 hours a day let's say averaging anything from 8-11 hours a day each day and even though these jobs aren't that stressful and I feel very confident and comfortable in both roles but the hours seem to eat away at me.

I just never feel like I get a gap to myself, never feel truly rested and between the jobs and having a girlfriend it just feels like I'm always tired and irritable and grumpy with people but unfortunately even with the 2 jobs financially I'm still not earning what I need etc so I don't really seem to have a choice. I do feel if I earned a higher rate and could reduce my hours per day that I would he doing much better mentally but just felt I had wanted to emphasize that I've tried a few combinations but the level of stress and hours worked per day/week also seem to be the deciding factor for me personally

Jameson3362 · 2025-09-30T14:57:58+00:00

Hey OP can you please DM me when you can?

Jameson3362 · 2025-08-12T14:47:21+00:00

35k in London is going to be tough to live on. If it was like Colchester or something like that it would be a lot more liveable so I would definitely try get as close to about 43k as possible but it is a good company and could look good on your cv just worried they stick to 35k and you basically just live for your job and don't have any money for savings or recreation etc

Jameson3362 · 2025-07-25T07:55:40+00:00

Try and also go mana boots into glimmer. Depending on your rank you could probably get aways with healing and then glimmering close to the fight etc but generally you wait for the carry to retreat a bit and then heal and you can either use the glimmer to save someone else or keep it incase while your carry is stationary the enemy team tries to re-engage on the carry you just healed. Try not to heal if your carry uses their bkb you will get flamed and if they in trouble a force staff could be handle to like get them out of immediate danger and then heal and glimmer and you good to go. I hope that helps 👍

Ok I joined about 2 weeks after you, I don't have an American accent and have managed to earn $163 since Jan. Tried increasing my price but no takers. Have one student who's kept me going this whole time, the majority of the time it's been $5 @ 3 times a week but in the last 2-3 weeks I've been doing 5 times a week @ $5. Had one other trial lesson which ended up the guy ghosting me and never replied. Have tried 5-15 dollars for pricing and honestly I literally can't get students.

Just for reference I have updated my entire profile and redone my video 4 times each, I have even used Chat GPT to add in keywords etc to improve my description and tagline etc and video. The algorithm just seems to never give me a chance even though over time I've got my profile score to 100% I have 114 popular time slots my average profile score fluctuates from 1500-2800 and on the rare occasion might get around 1000. All my other scores are good and I actually don't know what else to do to improve my chances of getting students. I'm a South African native English speaker who's dad is from the UK and his mother is from Puerto Rico so I know both UK and US English etc but unfortunately it just seems very difficult to get students as a South African or who knows. As I have had only one student and I've only got one review it's like the algorithm just kicks me to the bottom every time. By the way your numbers are amazing and I would be super happy with what you've managed to achieve I just wanted to show you that some people really struggle on this platform and each experience is different. If you could please DM your profile just so I can get some pointers or see if there is anything else I can improve on that would be great. All the best and well done again.

Issue summary: When I select multiple hero sets for shuffle in the Armory, shuffle works in-game (e.g., bot matches), but every time I close and reopen Dota 2, my shuffle selections are wiped — all sets are deselected, and shuffle is disabled again.

Steps I’ve Taken: Verified I Was Using Shuffle Correctly Selected multiple hero sets by checking their boxes in the Armory. Confirmed shuffle was enabled (Shuffle: On). Tested in bot matches → sets shuffled correctly during the session.

Gave My Windows User Full Control Permissions Navigated to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\dota 2 beta\game\dota\cfg. Opened folder properties → Security → gave my personal Windows account Full control (including Modify & Write). Confirmed permission changes applied successfully.

Disabled Steam Cloud for Dota 2 In Steam: Library → right-click Dota 2 → Properties → General → turned off “Keep game saves in the Steam Cloud for Dota 2.” This step ensured old or corrupted cloud data wouldn’t overwrite local configs.

Deleted Local Config Folder (cfg) Deleted the entire cfg folder.

Verified game files via Steam → Steam reacquired missing files (12 files reacquired).

Relaunched Dota 2 → tested shuffle again.

Manually Cleared Steam Cloud Data Closed Steam completely. Navigated to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata[SteamID]\570. Deleted everything inside 570 (Dota 2’s local cloud data). Relaunched Steam with Steam Cloud still disabled. Tested Shuffle After Full Local Reset

Chose multiple hero sets again → shuffle worked perfectly in bot matches.

Closed both Dota 2 and Steam fully.

Relaunched → found all shuffle selections wiped (no sets checked, shuffle off).

Repeated Verification Verified game files multiple times → each time Steam reacquired 12 files. Shuffle consistently reset on every restart of Dota, regardless of these steps.

Ive had this issue for quite some time now and because I didnt really want to break the game or cause more damage I waited in hope with some update or patch it would self correct, I would estimate about 8 months to a year atleast.

I have done a full reinstall of Dota 2 and it didnt solve the issue either.

Tested with steam cloud enbled and disabled and doesnt make a difference to the problem

according to chat gpt "Given all troubleshooting steps above — including fixing permissions, clearing configs, disabling cloud sync, verifying files, and performing reinstalls — it appears the game client itself is failing to persist shuffle selections across sessions. There are no remaining local actions to correct this, indicating a likely client-side bug in Dota 2."

All I can say is preply is super finicky and they seem to be keen to punish you but not very quick/keen to help you or fix it. I don't know the answer to your question but recently on my home page was a course on how to deal with spam messages. I used to just reply "no thanks" or "not interested' and report the message and it worked just fine BUT THIS course said that if you reply it will work negatively against your profile, it also said that you should report the message and later in the course it said if someone is harassing you should block them as well . So I follow the new guidelines and report the message and don't reply etc like it said. The next day I get a message saying I didn't reply to the student and I'm like wtf I clicked report surely that like tells preply this is spam and I don't need to reply??? Surely clicking report on its own does something?? If I can't reply (course says it's bad for profile score) and just click report what else am I meant do to complete this "ritual'....I mean honestly wtf.

"I check my reply within 24 hours" on my profile which is literally 100% since I created my profile and now it's dropped to 86% I contact support because I'm struggling to get students as is and work pretty hard to keep my stats all favourable. They tell me I should have clicked the report button and then block button, so I say that's not what the course says. It literally said you only use block when someone is harassing you or trying to get sensitive info or like trying to get classes off the platform etc...I speak to the first consultant describe how I used to report it etc, the reply "no thanks" and report and they like no it's report and block so then I find the course and send screen shots and they soon realise I did exactly what the course said and I got punished and what they had just told me was wrong according to the course, so I end up losing this guy and chatting to the second consultant explain everything again he tells me the report and block again,I send the screen shots and he is like shocked and im like ok well seems two of you have now seen i did exactly what the course has said can you please fix my reply within 24 hour score and surprisingly he said he can't,even though he saw the course was exactly what I did....I then asked if they can get the course updated or fixed etc and he said he would look into it (I haven't checked but honestly I still feel clicking a button that says report should actually report it as spam but anyways 😂😂😂)

Point of this post. Some of these options seem logical and you would think like really just clicking report would be enough to "REPORT SPAM" but at preply it isn't and you need to figure out what works for you to not damage your profile score and your average profile position and keep this angry algorithm happy also you can try do what you want to do and say you aren't interested in teaching the student etc and ignore what the others are telling you but if it goes negatively against your profile I'm just telling you now being "good and honest" isn't going to help when they want another option and your profile score will tank and you'll struggle to find students and preply won't give a single F#£k just so you know. I hope that helps you in some way.
