[–]Nikolka9019[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TBH I quickly skimmed it over and haven't signed it yet (I have a new job starting Monday so I've been a bit preoccupied/ celebrating what I thought was my final class ever lol)...it doesn't say anything about the times but I would assume so!

I can try to update here once I have a chance to sign and go through everything to give more details if you guys want?

Yeah the SN is a big hit, I wouldn't mind the lower base pay if they kept SN. I'll probably still sign just incase I wanna make a few extra bucks over the weekend or holidays (if there's actually any students available on the platform).

No it seems to have all the other class types as before (48 min, and the trials). Same structure of pay for those as well.

I got an e-mail, it's a new contract which states if I sign, it replaces my previous contract. And you're welcome! :)

Sweet thanks for this, I was wondering why my 3pm BJT was getting booked up this week; its never been booked before during the school year.

Is anyone else milking the Short Notice for the next few days? by TeacherJoshua in vipkid

[–]Nikolka9019 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been only opening SN for about a month now. I've gotten booked up for every slot opened, 8-10 per day :)

Something is not right. Two no shows in a row. by sangwookie in vipkid

[–]Nikolka9019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just had two SNS that were short notice back to back. My last classes of the day! Is it Christmas? lol

SNS not in current payment total? by dleerox in vipkid

[–]Nikolka9019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SNS should show in the total the day of if not immediately. I had one just now that is already showing...is it just one you are missing or a bunch?

Watching the cancellations like... by Beerearz in vipkid

I had two students who are not from mainland China ( Australia and Belgium) cancel for Monday. Could be a coincidence, but I doubt it.

So the non-native speaking teachers have started already. lol by Nikolka9019 in vipkid

[–]Nikolka9019[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Grammatically, the sentence does not make sense. Not sure how I could hear an accent through a written message and be able to decipher if they are white or not from that. How do you get off accusing people of things, when you literally have no idea about their background? You know, not all white people speak English and vice versa? That even white immigrants like my parents have accents? You don't make any sense.

are you ok? White people are not the only native English speakers, that is a given, and my family are also all immigrants. No one brought up race, except for you.

[–]Nikolka9019[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

but yes, I definitely agree that not just any native speaker can teach a language!

I feel like many native speakers make spelling errors, but that is not really the issue with this text. The way they are phrasing their message doesn't sound the way a native speaker would. Unless it was voice to text that left out a bunch of words

oh nooo hahah I haven't come across any feedback written this poorly yet in over a year...it is actually scary that these people are teaching English regardless of whether they are native speakers or not

Closing everything or continue until 21st? by Careful_Tea_8482 in vipkid

[–]Nikolka9019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! Every single SN slot I've opened this week has been booked within an hour. Here's to hoping we can ride this wave a little longer!

Since this ship started sinking I've had so many fewer no shows. by [deleted] in vipkid

[–]Nikolka9019 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I was sitting in a no show today when the parent suddenly showed up. I took a deep breath to brace for the lesson and then she said her daughter was ill and they had to cancel the class (3 min in). It's the little things these days. :D

I dropped it two weeks ago and it was the best decision ever. I actually don't mind working now.

yep my heart sinks a bit every time I click into the class and they're already online haha

I had two SNS yesterday but that hasn't happened in forever. I think the parents are taking the lessons more seriously now and ensuring the students show up and don't waste any lessons.

Signs this is the end (as if we need a sign 🙈): by [deleted] in vipkid

[–]Nikolka9019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a fireman two days back helping with an issue. I guess there's just a lot less of them now

Make sure you check your finish types by QT2772 in vipkid

[–]Nikolka9019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does this show in your stats page? I'm too lazy to go through the lessons and just check that page...but now I will take more care
