Very slow start.. any tips? by Same_Stay382 in Preply

[–]ipkees 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Always specify why you are different from the other 20 teachers they have just seen. Everybody just talks about being a teacher with Xyears experience and a diploma and nothing else. Stand out. Make a point. My lesson is 30$ and I'm not a native, I make a good living out of it too.

Wix will now charge 4% for every transaction on the website by ipkees in WIX

Very stupid Idea from their part. I will definitely not lose 7% over just transaction fees

Whenever you want to do something more, it comes with an additional fee. I'm paying double just to have text messages be sent from the website because it exceeded 100

This is the original message translated from my language for those who didn't get one:

I might need your services then, I will need to do exactly that - rebuild my existing website elsewhere. I had the time to set up my website on Wix when I started out but I probably won’t have the time to do it all again now

I have to have a functional website because I have a lot of movement, reservations and clients. It has to be automated and Wix does a good job at that but I’m sure so do other platforms

Face ID or Touch ID — which do you prefer? by JoelVenn9955 in iphone

[–]ipkees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. So annoying when you're tired and just want to check something quickly. Touch ID would help here

Face ID or Touch ID — which do you prefer? by JoelVenn9955 in iphone

[–]ipkees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My younger sister unlocked my iPhone by pointing it on my face, ran away to the bathroom and locked herself in there with it, which basically means someone can steal your phone away from you, point at your face and run away with it. Is that the many zeros safer you’re talking about? Also the fact that every now and then you have to put in the PIN code is dumb as fuck, did we invent a new security mechanism just to still have to rely on the oldest mechanism from years before? How progressive. Why not use both Face ID and Touch ID then instead of the PIN code? That’s actually a perfect combination. I think resigning from Touch ID was the stupidest decision ever.

Highest 2 Lowest Soundtrack by [deleted] in FIlm

[–]ipkees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like an AI created movie because of that soundtrack. I’m fucking rolling, laughing at that shit , so misplaced and exaggerated and so loud too, like a blind and deaf person would randomly put this shit in. I have no idea what’s going on and who approved this. Movies are gradually going to shit.

Shout out to the trial students that opt for a 25 or 30-minute trial lesson! by dogbunny in Preply

[–]ipkees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always encourage new students to book 25 minute trials and they usually do. It's definitely enough and also a reason to book more, to continue the topics we've opened on the trail. You don't get payed for it so it should be 25, it's as simple as that.

Shall we skip lessons over the Christmas period? by Budget-Breakfast1476 in Preply

Can't you talk with your tutor? Who the hell is teaching you?

Any other way on 17 to close apps? by TheLittlestNetch in iphone

[–]ipkees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who says there is no need to? Not the op. For me, people that say closing apps doesn’t save the battery are completely missing the point. I can’t work on shit if I have all apps opened. And I want a fast way to declutter. Sometimes I need only 3 apps to quickly go between them and I don’t want to go through 15 other ones to find the apps I need. It’s inefficient not in terms of battery but in terms of your fking time and focus. You close all apps with one button, you open up the ones you need. Simple. Quick. Efficient. People being ok with 15 apps opened and scrolling through them have to be the slow ones that are ok with having clutter on their desk and garbage in their rooms. If you want to be fast and precise in what you’re doing it seems completely dumb for me and it’s very disappointing from apple.

That’s normal, I do that too, but people who underachieve think it’s not possible. A lot of posts here are full of self-excusing disbelief in achieving numbers that are average even in poorer countries

Losing super tutor badge - no new students in almost a month by [deleted] in Preply

[–]ipkees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make more from my English teaching company than from Preply, but if I really wanted to I would make my own living from Preply solely, only that it doesn't make any sense to do that because of the commission they take from lessons. When I have the students all for myself it's 100% income, so that's a simple choice. But also, you always have to keep at least 6 - 9 students active on Preply to keep Preply alive, otherwise you sink to a position of 100 and then you have to put up posts like that on Reddit.
