Pros

I think the pay is very reasonable and it's nice to see the dollars pour in and the satisfaction of the students I talk to.

Cons

ANYONE and I mean ANYONE can call into this program, so you have 5 year olds calling you, men with improper intentions, literally ANY ONE. A lot of times I've talked to people from countries that were very difficult to understand even with the written translating tool. Often, when I would translate and send them a text, they would say they couldn't understand the text and it was wrong!

Pros

Always pay on time. Pay every week. Lessons and materials are good. When get a genuine student it's a good platform.

Cons

It would be a much better place to work if they got rid of the free trail classes. You will always receive calls from idiots trying to flirt to men actually showing you things you have no interest in seeing. It's unbelievable that Cambly actually allow this free trial because it's rarely used by genuine students. You can spend a lot of time talking to people who are just wasting your time. Then these people can rate you so they can give you a terrible rating if you don't entertain their flirting. It's a ridiculous system. You have to keep your camera on so it's very uncomfortable when a group of guys call and try to flirt. Cambly should allow cameras off for free trail classes so it might stop the idiots from calling. Pay is terrible.

Pros

Weekly pay that is on time.

Cons

Men and children as young as 10 years old exposing their genitals and masturbating on camera. No support from Cambly what so ever. If you complain on their facebook they will boot you from the group instead of helping you. Random people calling you and instead of wanting to learn english they use your recording to post racist things about westerners on youtube (this happened to me). Married men from Saudi Arabia and Turkey constantly hitting on you. Students calling then randomly hanging up on you, screaming at you for no reason, flipping you off, asking you innapropriate questions and trying to force you to participate in activities not related to learning and when you refuse or hang up and forget to ban them they will rate you so poorly you won't be able to pick up on any priority hours. The pay is woeful, you'll work hard for an hour and you probably won't get as many calls as you like so sometimes you can get paid just 5 dollars.
