Pros

Cambly is a great way to make a little bit of money on a flexible schedule, anywhere in the world. It's a great part-time job to have in your back pocket while traveling.

Cons

Tutors get treated like disposable garbage as a way of appeasing the students. Have a lesson scheduled at 6AM but the student cancels one minute in advance? Congrats- you woke up for nothing and will receive no money. Have a student that fails to cancel but doesn't show up? Cambly keeps the money and only breaks you off about a dollar.. Which is insane because the only person who is really inconvenienced is the tutor, who should therefore keep all the money they were expected to get out of the lesson. Lastly, Cambly needs to let tutors boot children who get on the adult platform. I feel burned everytime I get stuck with a kid who knows zero English in a priority hour. I should be making the $2 extra that tutors make on the Cambly Kids platform, not getting burned all because Cambly allows parents to be cheapskates and put them on the adult platform rather than the slightly more expensive children's one.
