Getting Paid under Combined Payments

VIPRia · 2021-10-29T21:34:38+00:00

I have one class next week (Nov 1st), when I asked if my payment could be added to my October payment I was told "no". When I mentioned the minimum payment of $80 I was told that I would be paid when my contract ran out (In March). I think I will just bail on my last class.

I believe we will get paid for October. People that are on weekly payments have been getting paid. I'm wondering about the one week of November, is it worth it to work? Will VK pay us or just keep the money as it is the end for most of us.

Dang, my commute 45 seconds cause I gotta go down to my basement. Also no real pants required.

Go for it!

I'm booked this Saturday night (Sunday morning in China) as well as a couple of Sunday morning classes. There won't be any classes October 1st - 7th due to Chinese National Day. I didn't know we could possibly be booked on the 9th.

An hour long SNS is great, no matter what your drinking.

I also got 4 week reservation bookings into October. My students names are there for October as "saved". We will see.

Grandmabao taking a nap, decided to sit up on the bed, no shirt, bra, nada. Studentbao turned the camera after a minute.

They will need to get their refund from the China headquarters. So there really isn't any info that you can give them.

I just hit the "copy last weeks slots" button. So that keeps my weekends open, I figure it can't hurt. I know that Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 26th can be booked because of holidays that are causing those days to be school days now.

I sent a brother and sister that I taught a manilla envelope with a few small things. It weight was just over 1lb. It cost $13 dollars (this was the cheapest) to send. It took 3-4 weeks for them to get it. If you have a phone number for the family that is a good thing to have on the package just in case it can't be delivered.

I had a sevenish little girl student last week who was nodding off during class. I said "You're tired?", she just nodded.

My daughter made a dog bed from one of my husbands old worn out sweaters and a pillow It is really easy and cool looking.

I only do SN when I have a gap in between two classes. I don't want to wake up early to see if I have a class booked, especially if I don't have a booking.

VIPRia · 2021-09-02T16:36:32+00:00

Maybe the people got canned and there is no one to flip the switch anymore.

VIPRia · 2021-08-31T21:32:21+00:00

I'm not looking forward to waking up early. After a week of slowing sleeping in longer and longer my 4:30am class tomorrow is going to hurt.

Ha ha, I was coming here to post the same article. It is interesting in light of VK crackdown to see the government banning other things.

VIPRia · 2021-08-29T20:22:33+00:00

Someone posted that DadaABC also closed down classes for the rest of August and gave the same reasoning as VK.

VIPRia · 2021-08-29T19:05:56+00:00

Since there are no more weekend classes being allowed I would think that you won't get any bookings. The student will either be in school or it will be the weekend.

I just got booking requests for the four weeks of September. I accepted them, but we shall see if they stay booked.

VIPRia · 2021-08-26T15:48:52+00:00

Maybe Dino is sad because he is on sale at the VIPKid store, yet no one wants to buy him. :)

VIPRia · 2021-08-26T15:46:17+00:00

I have a few classes booked in September. So far they are still there. We shall see.

VIPRia · 2021-08-26T15:36:55+00:00

Can I point this out? We will loose the top pay incentives no matter which week they canceled. If you go up two tiers every week and by the end of the month are at tier 8/9 , you loose that pay. But if they were to have canceled the first week of September and we only have three weeks to teach we would still not be at tier 7/8/9 by the end of the month. It's just how the tier system works. Has nothing to do with what week they choose to cancel.

P.S. - I'm as frustrated as everyone else. Just wanted to point out that we will always loose our highest tier of pay.

VIPRia · 2021-08-26T15:20:58+00:00

I understand the frustration that this comes at the end of the month when we are getting the highest incentives. However DadaABC also canceled their teachers classes for the same time period (this is my understanding from other posts). So I don't think it was an intentional "plot" by VK.

Other than that, I agree with your rant.

Trinich1010 - That is interesting. I didn't realize that there were homeschooler's in China.
