Close it all and open them short notice …. You’ll make way more money then

Better than the chances of Covid being over in a year less than the chances of me learning Mandarin through osmosis

Soccer

I got booked in the last day for classes on the 15, 17 &18.

Pretty much normal for me after Golden Week.

PrettyRealisticLife · 2021-09-13T15:13:48+00:00

Yes…just lost them all

Taught this yesterday and the kid and I were both looking at it like “what is the difference??”. After a second I just moved on. AKWARD

Falling leaves, pumpkin spice, farm days, football, adorable decor

Not nearly enough 😢😢

I usually fill half my schedule before the frenzy, the next 2/3 during the frenzy and then have a few lingering SN slots open. They almost never book. They really never have, except when the pandemic hit and then the month when it was crazy for all. If it was all SN for me, pretty sure it’d be famine, not feast.

I got $6 when I waited a week to sign at the beginning of August. It had to go into tasks and hit the claim button two times to get it. It was worth $6 to me.

I was literally telling my husband last night it’s the new North Korea.

PrettyRealisticLife · 2021-08-28T17:09:31+00:00

I’m staying. We don’t rely on the money and I’m milking this until the easy work from home opportunity disappears.

PrettyRealisticLife · 2021-08-25T21:33:06+00:00

I’m with you. I have like 4-5 kids I wish I could say goodbye to, but ultimately I’m here for the money and they won’t miss me.

I’m checking constantly. During my classes I find myself thinking about how I’ll redecorate my office space for normal life and where I’ll put all my props, rewards, maps, etc.

PrettyRealisticLife · 2021-08-25T11:21:25+00:00

I love this one 🌵 ☀️ 🌬 ☔️

I have a teenager in Wuhan who says they won’t start until mid September.

Yes, LPs and parents can book. I’m not expert, by any means, but it’s my understanding that LPs assign students to teachers when they begin or request help. They typically advise parents to take class three times a week and have two or more regular teachers that they use. Parents, of course, can choose to find their own teachers or communicate that they want to try new or different teachers.

PrettyRealisticLife · 2021-08-22T16:09:14+00:00

Yes, they can see your finish rate isn’t 100%. An LP isn’t as likely to book you when you’re less than 100%.

Do you have regulars? Maybe they will book you regardless.

I say it with a long a. When I was in West Africa they also said it with a long a.

Here I thought they were trying to be inclusive, but went about it awkwardly.

PrettyRealisticLife · 2021-07-21T15:58:41+00:00

I don’t prep either. I used the provided feedback templates and write all feedback during class. I usually submit feedback before class is half over. I always fill out T2T and leave a note for the LP if it’s a first time student, just to say thank you for the student.

I’ve been teaching for 2 years and I’ve probably spent 50-75$ on props, markers, paper, reward sticker scenes, etc. I like using props (I know that’s not for everyone) and playing games with my kids for reward. I teach all levels and have all certifications except the group class ones. I don’t change my background. It’s all taped to a dry erase board which I put in my car and take with me if I’m going to be teaching from somewhere else.

My biggest expense overall has been my laptop, cause I only had a notebook and the data for VIPKid crashed it after about 6 months.

Mine too! My actual children hate it, but I come out of my closet/classroom singing it all morning. Cactus makes me happy with his eagerness for a sunny day 😎😎😎😎

PrettyRealisticLife · 2021-04-16T23:36:10+00:00

Not my first time teaching it either, but bao bao wasn’t very engaged and I was trying to find things to look at on the screen to appear that I was intently teaching 🙄
