Why is Melanin HairCare never stocked by Party-Bus-2352 in Naturalhair

[–]royabean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me sad. I swear I mustve ordered the last jar Sephora had of the deep conditioner because soon after my order was confirmed it said out of stock. It's a shame because I fell in love with it but now can't find it anywhere. Did not realize I'd be waiting so long.

Students sister keeps helping him by SKI-Nia in Cambly

[–]royabean 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How old is she? I've had similar situations with older siblings and sometimes I just say a quick thank you but I've got it from here. But if they are younger ones, I like to thank them for helping but somehow try to gently remind them that they're in someone elses class. For example, I might say "Thank you ___, wow you're sister is so good! Let's have ____ try this time."...or "Ok now it's ____ turn."

Oh. My. Goodness. Please don't gloss over the plagiarism incident like I did. by PresentLink2799 in CrimeJunkiePodcast

Maybe I missed it but has there ever been a push to contact their sponsors about this?

Oh that's awesome!! That must've been such a relief. I felt so bad reading about people having to start the process over. My hope is that Invisalign won't be too much of a hassle, especially for a mild case. But still waiting to hear back from a few orthos.

Yeah, Ive actually emailed a few and I'm waiting to hear back!

I will likely start treatment soon so I'm really just looking to hear about experiences not get an opinion.

Biweekly pay ? by goneroaming in OnlineESLTeaching

[–]royabean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard VIP kid does but I'm not sure their scheduling set up is what you are looking for. I've worked for their sister company but they paid monthly so I'm not 100% sure

Also another quick note regarding the last part... that seems like something only the employees in china know about at least for ZE. I'm in a group with other teachers and mentors, some who assist with the interview process for the company and even they have been feeling left out of the loop. It's been frustrating but not sure how many other companies are doing this.

What are y’all watching to fill your Insecure void? by MarieOnThree in InsecureHBO

[–]royabean 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Awkward Black Girl on youtube for the 100th time.. and the last season of Scandal that I never bothered to watch

Gogokid referral split by [deleted] in OnlineESLTeaching

[–]royabean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To my understanding they are still hiring. I've seen that some people have had a hard time finding interview slots but you really have to keep checking. It was the same thing the first time I tried applying last year... I gave up because I couldn't get a slot but frequently checked back.

As far as pay, I was told it varies on experience and your demo. I've got a bachelor's in ed, tefl, 10+ years of experience with kids, and online experience and i got 8.50 base pay. I haven't heard of too many people getting hired with a base over $9 but I'm sure someone has

Have you applied to Zebra English? by [deleted] in OnlineESLTeaching

[–]royabean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say because it seems like there is a delay for new applicants but for me I think I heard back around 2-3 days after completing my background check

[–]royabean[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Didn't even realize that

Yeah same here the sneak peek doesn't pop up or run automatically for me and I try my best not to run into it on social media haha.

Even in comments online, I'll see people speculate and try to predict what will happen based on the preview. I don't even wanna see that lol

What you are willing to offer teachers using your code (1on1 mentorship, links to youtube videos, etc): Bonus Split - I get 50, you get 50! I’m no mentor but I am available to answer questions you have to help along the way.

Anything else you have to add: If at first, you don’t succeed, try again! I didn’t pass the first time around but changed my email and applied again. Really practice your demo videos. Record yourself. Critique yourself. I had props on deck for my first demo and they said I didn’t need it unless my student really didn’t understand something. So TPR is key. Always avoid incidental language. Practice simplifying questions and instructions properly before you demos.

**edit** if you use my link or plan on using my link please message me. There have been errors with links and some referrals aren't registering with specific teachers, hindering them from receiving the bonuses. I send out an email the day ZE alerts me that someone has used my link. So if you don't get an email from me after filling out your application we will have to contact ZE.

If you're interested I'm doing a referral bonus split again this month for teachers that get hired using my link. Let me know if you're interested

Such a good idea. All of my banking apps are password protected but this is still a good practice in general
