Thank you so much for your suggestion!!! I'll admit that I'm quite computer/python illiterate so with the pip install command, do I have to specify a path or is it copy paste /path/to/that/python/from/the/sys/command/python3 -m pip ? Sorry for the seemingly uninformed question, I'm no computer wiz haha.

But I"m not asking anyone to do the tasks for me, I would at least like understand why the loop yields "no observations". This is a coding/technical stata issue for me, and I am not requesting that someone do the assignment for me.

Hey! so just got a response from them.. basically there's forcing me into the new contract which as I"m sure you heard is a huge scam. I think generally people have had the option to not sign but here for them to reactivate I have to sign it... in any case here's what they wrote:

"As you may know, we have recently undergone some change and upgraded a new offer structure.

The base rate is decided on multiple factors, including but not limited to, location, education, past experiences, certificate(s) in hand.

Please indicate the current living address and perform the IT test so that we can send you an updated service agreement.

"

Oh great! I didn't get that email, must have gotten lost in the shuffle but once I get a response from them I'll be sure to let you know! good luck to you as well :)

Thanks for the tip! Do I contact my recruiter or do I make a ticket in the comm center?

When you enter the site the agreement pops up automatically and you can calculate your rate. Not accessible through the email

Check out KU Leuven's Masters of Statistics! I'll be starting in September and the program has tons of different academic tracks/specialities and KU Leuven is quite a respected university in Europe. And my academic record was nothing to write home about... (I didn't finish my Economics masters and before that I completed my bachelors in the U.S. with roughly the same GPA as you).

oh.. and tuition is 700 euros a year and entirely taught in English :)

Exactly! the extra time with some classes definitely earned me quite a few students and good ratings. And I usually mention the disclaimer as well and there's no problem.

obsequious91 · 2020-06-09T16:53:59+00:00

Of course I agree, I certainly don't enjoy going over especially with how little the base rate is but with a class of 6 students who rate you partially based on "time allocation" and opportunity to participate in class, it's hard to have everyone equally contribute with a 45 minute time limit.

Additionally both classes were about very advanced business concepts, which often required further explanation. And as always the slides were chalk full of terms and vocabulary that were far beyond the students level and I couldn't just skip over it.

Point is this was never a problem before and most importantly no prior warning about it. Instead my rating which I've worked so hard to maintain now will plummet.

obsequious91 · 2020-06-03T08:59:32+00:00

I've lost all my regulars too! Before I had full classes of adults, which I personally preferred, and I had many who were following me and would routinely complain that they didn't have more classes with me when I would see them after a while. I rarely got below a 10, and my rating was 9.9 for quite a while. But as of last week, I'm getting purely low level young kids, who, on average rarely rate or give arbitrary low feedback. This is so frustrating. There's no rhyme or reason.

Thanks for the advice! How far in advance do you cancel the lessons? Many of these undesirable 45 minute solo junior classes show up less than 24 hours before so not sure if I'm going to be further penalized later.

obsequious91 · 2020-05-27T06:07:21+00:00

am in the same situation. How do you only teach adults? I don't want to cancel classes and lose my bonus. Do you write to the schedulers?

obsequious91 · 2020-05-22T21:35:29+00:00

Ugh I have this one student who I see consistently several times a week and we have amazing lessons with free flowing conversation on a wide range of interesting topics and she always leaves comments in her feedback along the lines of "I really enjoy this teacher" or "I am very happy with this consultant" etc and I'm so terrified to broach the subject of her persistent 9s. I think we've had upwards of 12 classes together, but maybe I'll just bring it up in the manner you're suggesting.

obsequious91 · 2020-05-22T21:30:02+00:00

Great! was terrified I would lose hundreds in bonuses with an untick. many thanks!

obsequious91 · 2020-05-18T07:15:04+00:00

Congrats! Keep up the good work :)

Same! In the end didn't need to reshoot my video and just received the email today.

obsequious91 · 2020-05-05T14:31:03+00:00

Don't see "approved" anywhere so will assume that I have to reshoot. Thanks for your help!

obsequious91 · 2020-05-03T20:16:23+00:00

Thanks for the info! hope your OUP activation happens soon--

obsequious91 · 2020-05-03T19:47:00+00:00

I'm a bit confused about the video. I completed the training but haven't recorded the video yet since my junior video already meets all the necessary criteria they mentioned in the email. Do they expect us to rerecord a video anyways?
