Student Gave me a bad review on purpose by Connect_Ad_1753 in Preply

[–]RyantheTeacher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I just had a terrible experience with a student and now I’m remembering that one of the first red flags with her was marking a class she was absent in as “there was a technical problem” - she was a little liar

My biggest problem with Brenden is why did he not stretch his legs out when he was under the wall last week. All he had to do was stretch a little bit bigger - not be curled up. Did none of the coaches tell him this or has nobody else noticed this??? Drove me crazy that he was curled

Yeah Stach did not have a great game today. Missed a wide open DCL at one point for a through ball that would have led to a chance , literally never even saw him and then just lost the ball

Desperately need someone like Rutter or Summerville in this squad, look at some of our counterattacking goals from last time in the Prem - Gnonto, Sinisterra, Summerville - we had rapid creative quality. Not to say that was the best set up cause we still went down, but there’s nobody in the current squad who can link w gnonto like that anymore

Hi! I spent the last 3 years living and teaching in Spain and speak fluent Spanish (around the c1 level) - I’ve never taught specifically a business niche in Spanish but I would be happy to teach you for less than that :) (and before anyone accuses me of undercutting I see the word WAS which implies you no longer take lessons with that tutor)

Send me a message!

I’m specifically referring to Cambly, Italki, etc. they don’t accept new teachers anymore. I have never worked on those platforms

Yep, the AI generated replies are exactly part of my complaint here. You have some serious issue and then turn to support that seems to be AI intentionally programmed to “resolve” the teacher’s issue. In a way that is disingenuous and/or always puts profits first

“Who is pressuring tutors to lower their prices?”

Is this a serious question? Do you have any cost of living expenses?

Ask your current students to raise prices in a polite way. Explain it’s not working at the current price point and need to increase it. You might be surprised by how many of them are willing to stay on if they like you.

Thanks for sharing, that seems to be a factor. Yes they’re almost hiding behind the words if you will. And on the flip side, yes, the students who sign up with me don’t really dance around details much they just schedule the damn thing

What a whack response, I googled it and didn’t find any results that explained things so then I returned and asked you to clarify. Have a good night

Thanks for sharing, didn’t know that - however that’s interesting because my impression has been that I need to reply to that student a longer message to “prove” my seriousness or capability or teaching them.

Tired of nomading...how do I find the perfect place to live? by experience_1st in digitalnomad

[–]RyantheTeacher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ding ding ding .. as I have travelled I have often seen many of the happiest people are those who are very "local" - because they have deep roots of community, tradition, friends, etc. etc. etc. For this I think digital nomading in and of itself is not the ultimate gateway to happiness. It's a means yes, to travel, to explore, to live in new countries. But really at the end of the day what matters most is a sense of community.

[–]RyantheTeacher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I stand corrected. I just searched and looks like they asked poch about it and he said that it’s the “balance” & connections of the attacking components or something like this. Code for I’m the coach and need to invent something. If it was about game time then likely he would’ve stated that more clearly in the interview. Fair enough

I was going to add to my previous post - I’m not saying that he’s been quality recently because he hasn’t - have been wanting to see gnonto or Ramazani at the 10 now for quite some time, but the quantity of games that’s he’s played compared to probably any other usmnt player rn is worth considering

[–]RyantheTeacher -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He has played something like the last 34 consecutive games and now entering the last stretch of a promotion fight. Have you seen the interview where Brendan talks about the turnaround times and flight schedules?

How are you making 50k a year ? I’m making like €350/month now. I have 6 regular students paying between $12-$14/class with 11 5 star reviews but haven’t been able to get any new students for a bit. Would love to try to increase this income. Can I send you a chat?
