A Year with VIPKID
This week I hit an anniversary that I never really thought would happen. Over a year ago I first heard about VIPKID and honestly I dismissed it pretty quickly. It sounded a lot like a scam and I was in need of a “real” job. Honestly the gig sounded like it would be a pretty good fit for me, but all of it sounded a little too good to be true, not to mention exhausting. $14-$22 an hour, working from home and early hours. Something kept pulling me back to the application though. I read every online review I could find, talked with another teacher and with my Mom. Eventually I decided, why not give it a try. The worst that could happen is it be a scam and me have a few wasted hours. A year later, I’ve signed my third contract with VIPKID, taught over 1300 twenty-five minute classes and met more than 500 different students from China. Best of all, I still love this job!
