Pros
Meeting people from different parts of the world - everyone that I have met has something interesting about them so makes for enjoyable conversation. Levels of English vary but it is a welcomed challenge and keeps it interesting. Using priority hours will keep a tutor busy After only one month I have spoken to over 200 different people - many of these for only 5 minutes but each one has been fun for me. $.17 per minute does not seem much but it does add up This is a great way to spend free time, much more fun that going to the local pub and talking with the bar flies and you make some extra income doing it I also find that the students are genuinely interested in learning or practising English and appreciate the tutor's efforts which makes doing it a pleasure
Cons
There are some glitches with the system. Sometimes after having a call with a student I end up having to do the connection test again instead of getting back to my dashboard which has caused missing the next caller. On a couple occasions students have reported having two tutors on line at the same time. It has also happened that I will get two calls at the same time, don't know if this is a glitch. The 5 minute trial period seems a bit short with potential students being disconnected before really getting going.
