One of my friends signed up for lessons with Cambly and I shudder to think how they had the worst experience ever. Not only were they overcharged, but the tutor they encountered had absolutely no idea how to teach and told the student how they were doing this job as a side gig. The student gradually got the idea that the tutor was completely unmotivated and only cared about making $ (which, when the student researched, was barely anything anyway, like way below any minimum wage). What a horrific experience for this person who trusted Cambly and then got patently ripped off, leaving her to join a more reputable platform for her studies. They should be able to award 0 stars for this sham of a company that is only there to make profit and doesn't give 2 hoots about any student's learning journey,

Cambly are stealing from tutors. When a student doesn't show up to the lesson, the students lose their minutes but the tutor only gets $2 for waiting "10 minutes". We've wasted 30 minutes of our day, and only get $2 while Camly gain the minutes back of the students, they've already got the students money through the subscription yet they take from us...even though this is our livelihood! Moral of the story, don't support this money stealing low life scumbag company.

Awful company to work for, the pay is truly terrible and has been the same for ten years (inflation doesn't exist In Cambly world). They randomly watch your lessons then send you "encouraging"emails telling you how you can "improve", they will also fire you without any notice and any explanation Students don't turn up and you get a $2 for waiting and using a thirty minute time slot. A total joke of a company.

I tried to apply to work for this firm and 7 others at the same time. Due to their very bad software it was impossible to become a tutor with them. I repeatedly tried to get some sense from their badly trained staff but finally gave up on joining them as all the customer service team would do was to sent me the same faulty link, over and over again. They also did not read my emails properly.

I found Cambly to be a very frustrating and ultimately depressing platform to use. The pay structure is by the minute, which sounds flexible, but in practice, it’s demoralizing. You can spend long periods just sitting there waiting for students to call, effectively wasting your time while earning nothing. The unpredictability of the platform leaves you feeling undervalued, as you have no control over when (or if) you'll get calls. For those looking to make consistent income or feel appreciated for their time and effort, Cambly is not the ideal choice. The concept is good, but the execution leaves much to be desired. Cambly needs to address how tutors are compensated and ensure their time isn’t treated as disposable. Until then, I can't recommend it to anyone seeking meaningful work or steady earning.

Tutors Beware I've been working with Cambly for a while now, and I feel compelled to share my experience in the hopes that it will help others make an informed decision. Unfortunately, my time with Cambly has been far from positive, and I want to highlight a few key issues that potential tutors should be aware of. 1. Poor Treatment of Tutors: Cambly markets itself as a flexible and rewarding platform for tutors, but the reality is quite different. The company treats its tutors as expendable, offering little to no support when issues arise. Whether it’s dealing with unfair student reviews or technical problems, don’t expect much help from Cambly’s support team. The responses are often generic, delayed, or completely unhelpful. This lack of support leaves tutors feeling isolated and undervalued. 2. Unfair Rating System: The rating system on Cambly is incredibly stressful. Tutors are constantly under pressure to maintain high ratings, but the system is flawed and lacks transparency. A single bad review can drag your overall rating down significantly, and there’s no clear recourse to challenge unfair ratings. This creates a toxic environment where tutors are left feeling anxious and insecure about their standing on the platform. 3. Low Pay: Considering the amount of money Cambly makes from its students, the pay for tutors is shockingly low. Tutors are paid by the minute, which sounds decent on paper, but in practice, it’s far from fair. The rates do not reflect the effort, preparation, or emotional labor that goes into teaching. Meanwhile, Cambly is charging students significantly more, pocketing a large profit while paying its tutors a fraction of what they’re worth. 4. Lack of Job Security: There’s no real job security with Cambly. Tutors can be penalized or even removed from the platform with little explanation. This lack of stability is incredibly stressful, especially for those who rely on Cambly as a primary source of income. Conclusion: If you’re considering working for Cambly, I strongly urge you to think twice. The poor treatment of tutors, combined with a flawed rating system, low pay, and lack of support, makes it a very challenging and often demoralizing place to work. Cambly’s business model seems to prioritize profit over the well-being of its tutors, and that’s something I can no longer support.

Ho prenotato una lezione di prova che fanno pagare 1 euro. Peccato che l'insegnante non si sia mai presentata e non c'è da nessuna parte del sito un posto dove poter chiedere il rimborso o di poterla rifissare. Non dico un telefono ma almeno una chat a cui riferire la problematica o il modo di lasciar un messaggio alla teacher... 1 euro non è tanto ma moltiplicato per enne utenti mi sa di truffa...

This ESL Teacher, is Kori Caignou. She lives in Vernon, British Columbia. She was extremely rude to me in the comment section on a Facebook video. I made an innocent comment about a deaf girl being able to hear a loud whistle. Kori responded with, "the kid is deaf, stop fake claiming, and educate yourself. Starting with your misguided impression that deaf means utterly and complete silence..." I wouldn't want her to teach my children. I believe she shouldn't be working with children at all.
