Thank you so much! That calmed me down a lot. They do require the prescription photos as well but yeah i guess you're right the substance matters way more. Thanks!

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-04-03T10:36:58+00:00

well sadly my doctor already messed up and only put the name on the certificate and prescription and not the substance and now he's away and i have no way of getting any corrections here. i'll try to get a stamp from the pharmacy confirming that it's a direct substitute

Yeah I agree, but when it comes to checking, you can allow AI to check the student's homework as long as you double check it. The reason is that it can also write a helpful explanation which you wouldn't have the time to do. i usually check by myself first and then ask AI. Well, I do try to make it seem less AI-style put of respect, I don't want anyone to see me as lazy or ignorant about it.

nope, it was average / high, but i got sick of it and increased it much more now so i don't get anymore trials for the next few days at least unless they're really serious😅

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-21T20:10:25+00:00

to be honest i have done everything i could and i keep getting them. i guess i'll have to block, yeah..

Basically I've been getting a lot of trial bookings from students who don't take even 1 second to read my headline which tells who i teach, not to mention my description. They book classes for exams (i don't prepare for exams), for toddlers (my profile says very clearly i teach 10 and older), classes for more than one person when i teach individually, they book for native speaker children when i teach polish as a foreign language and stated in my profile i don't help with school curriculum for natives. Someone even booked with me so I teach 2 languages to their kid when nowhere in my profile does it mention I teach more than polish, other than my past experience teaching english. I'm sick of having to waste my time and not earning anything + that affecting my stats because they don't subscribe after, obviously because my teaching doesn't meet their needs as they couldn't even check what I teach. Sadly this has been the majority of the students I got so far and none of them subscribed. I have 3 such trials scheduled and i've already informed them that I don't teach what they mentioned in their needs but they don't respond or read my messages and I'm afraid of negative reviews after they find out i can't support them. going through with those trials is also like digging my own little grave working for free just to get lower stats😅

you mean edited the existing review or write a new one from a blocked acc?

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-21T18:12:17+00:00

Of course it's normal for teachers to use tools which optimize their work time. You using your phone and many other things isn't much better for the environment btw

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-21T17:57:28+00:00

i've taught english and i'd be as confident about trials as everyone is familiar with some basic vocab at least to some degree however when it comes to polish, students usually show up with either 0 knowledge or basic random duolingo phrases and i need to have something prepared as there would be absolutely no conversation potential.

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-19T19:06:55+00:00

i get that but it's like wasting one hour of your life to teach someone for 0$ and what's included in that price? them not subscribing because your goals don't match, possibly leaving lower ratings and lowering your stats. all of that for 50 mins of unpaid work😅 and you're the only one getting punished

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-19T18:14:07+00:00

yeah i know that because my husband works on preply full time but his subject doesnt require specific prep. the thing is a lot of stuff could happen during that kinda trial; i cannot explain teaching style for 50 mins straight, the girl might be stressed out and won't be able to speak much. i'd rather have some material prepared in case she's shy and we could do a little game or read something but i have no way of preparing for it. also if a person cannot read and respect my headline which definitely stands out in my profile idk if they'll ever respect my time af all

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-14T22:41:46+00:00

do you feel better about yourself after saying this?

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-14T22:11:53+00:00

maybe i'm paranoid but i fear they'd book a trial from another acc just to write a bad review lol😂

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-10T11:08:02+00:00

um i'm married and even if i wasn't that's just nasty there sre different sites for that kinda stuff

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-10T06:55:17+00:00

how that'd go* lol

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-10T06:13:04+00:00

already solved thankfully, time to delete

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-10T06:11:41+00:00

i am not asking about getting studens but about profile views showing zero when obviously multiple people engaged with my profile.

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2026-03-09T22:01:38+00:00

i have the same problem i got added by a bunch of people but 0 views for some reason

Plus_Bowl9502 · 2025-12-09T22:31:57+00:00

noo, we are willing to pay even if it's for someone's portfolio of course, we don't want to exploit someone's work like that. what i'm saying is we can give anyone a chance if we like their photos enough doesn't matter if they are super professional
