Hi, I’m Kathryn Rucker. I have interviewed with other English teaching platforms and I would say that Magic Ears had the best process.

As a non-native English speaker, you’ve probably exhausted all your options when it comes to finding a company to teach for. You’re ready to start teaching English online, but so frustrated with company after company requiring “native English speaker” as a prerequisite. Today, I’m here to tell you that a) I see you! and b) there are still some options out there.

Teaching English online has helped me to work from home, create an income, and build my own business. After teaching English online for three years, I have learned a few things that I wish I had known when I was starting.

A majority of the teachers you will see teaching online are female and this can turn many great male teachers away from a potentially rewarding work-at-home opportunity. With the overwhelming majority of online ESL teachers being female, male teachers might wonder if gender plays a role in getting hired and being successful.

It’s 2020 and teaching English online has never been easier. But with the ever-developing digital space now offering tools such as apps and online streaming services, we as online English teachers must be adaptable and ready to explore new paths to reach our students.

You packed your bags and set off on an adventure of a lifetime. You spent months, maybe years planning and saving only for it all to be derailed by a global pandemic. Whether you are stuck at home or abroad, having your travel plans put on pause or canceled can be difficult. Why not use this time to teach English online and prepare for your next adventure?

Have you ever noticed that successful online English teachers don’t seem to run out of students? They can open their huge schedules for two weeks out and have them them fill up almost instantly. Some teachers can even go totally “short-notice” and fill their time slots for the next day within 24 hours, no matter when they open them. What’s their secret?

Online English teaching is a fast-growing profession in an increasingly virtual world. But despite the increasing lifestyle options made available by technology, it’s also worth considering how these new options affect our mental wellbeing.

An online English teaching job ad catches your eye. You click the "Apply" button, fill out the application form, and upload your headshot. Then, just when you think you are done, you see that it requires your self-introduction video and realize you don't have one yet.

If you have ever been stuck in this kind of situation, don't panic! We're here to help you craft an English teacher introduction video that will dazzle not only your potential employers, but also your future students!

If you are looking to work as an online English tutor but wondering where to start, we'll guide you through the process step-by-step. Breaking into this fast-growing field is actually easier than you think.

You've made it past the interview, the demo and all the paperwork that comes with it. Phew. However, crickets are the only sound you hear because you are not getting any students signing up for your classes. A week turns to two, then three, and before you know it, two months have passed and you have taught five lessons at best. This is NOT what you signed up for. How much longer can you keep going like this?

Getting that coveted first booking is one of the biggest challenges teachers face when beginning a career teaching online.

One of the hot topics of the online English teaching world these days is the idea of teaching for multiple companies. 

Some people see it as a betrayal to the company that first hired them and would much rather put their time and energy into one thing.  Others view it as a smart choice for maximizing their options and furthering their online English teaching career.
