Pros

I met some really great people on here even though the pay is not that great it's a easy way to make some money on the side... Fairly decent supplemental income depending on how much you're trying to make.

Cons

Not enough pay. And they definitely don't care about their employees God forbid you have an emergency and you have priority hours they will lock you out for a week If you don't make your hours regardless of whether or not The circumstances are beyond your control... Like badd whether for example and not having any power😐. Like they were actual news documents showing how bad My area was affected I was without power for 3 days in this company to did not care they still canceled my hours not to mention without priority hours you can forget making any kind of decent wage on here. Even though that priority hours are much to speak of pay wise at least you're not sitting there for nothing.

Pros

Very flexible schedule (you create your own), can easily cancel classes without too much of a penalty (make every student that you like a "regular" student so that if you get penalized...only regulars can book you...you have a huge pool of regulars), Cambly provides lessons, you can use almost any website as long as you don't need to share login information, it's fun and easy, many students become like friends, you can learn about different countries, cultures, and languages

Cons

The pay. It has never increased in the 14 years that Cambly has been in business. They are starting to offer a new program called "Cambly Pro" where you can make $15 an hour, but you have to apply to be a tutor for it and you could be denied. You have to have a 99% rating for 3 months to even be considered. If, like me, you are open to all students (and not just your regular students that you have become friends with), your rating can vary widely. No matter how good of a tutor you are, you will not be everyone's cup of tea. Also, Cambly does not allow tutors to teach in some states in the U.S. due to labor laws.
