I'm always grateful for the experience they've given me. It boosted my confidence and trained me to become better in the teaching profession. They offer free online trainings and promotions are easy to achieve. You just really have to have a good and stable internet connection as well as a secure source of electricity, which I lacked back then. Without it, penalties would be stacked more than your actual rate per session.
Pros
Gives you a lot of training which are essential for your profession and promotion.
Cons
They have bigger penalty rate than your actual per 25-minute rate.
It is an awesome experience! I really enjoyed teaching students during my free time. Trainings provided by the company really helps a lot for self-improvement. I am confident and was able to deliver my lessons very well. 51 talk has competitive salary and incentives, great support system, fun work culture and reliable management.
Pros
incentives and compensations
● Pay & benefits
My pay and benefits at 51Talk are the worst! They pay you very low yet you do a lot of effort to teach. The penalties are 4 times than your salary per 25 mins. There is no justice indeed. Please please do not apply here.
● Overall
My experience working at 51Talk is not good. You exert a lot of energy and time but do not get any benefit or even a bigger salary.

● Overall
My experience working at 51Talk is not good. You exert a lot of energy and time but do not get any benefit or even a bigger salary.
Penalties are way too high and there's no consideration esp when there's a power outage and not entirely your fault. Promotions and tagging are delayed as well. You have to wait for weeks before they will tag your promotion. They won't even bother unless you contact or follow up the support team.
Pros
Convenient and fun
Cons
No benefits, penalty fees are very high, you are required to teach at night during peak hours
51 Talk should fix their AC. Why? Because their AC is a trash. It is not their employees fault that they can not enter their class, its the company itself.
Pros
Experience, socialization, and improve.
Cons
AC is a TRASH, naughty kids, you'll get 1/4 of your student's payment as your salary and the rest is to the company, and lasty no justice when it is the student or company's fault.
51Talk provides competitive salary and incentives. They have an awesome support system. The environment is friendly and fun. Promotion is fast as well
Pros
Flexible Schedule, Competitive Salary and Incentives
Cons
None so far
Overall the company is great, I enjoy working in here, relaxing and can work at anytime, and also a lot of free training's that you can book and you can enjoy everytime.

The trainings helps me a lot to be a better teacher. I can confidently teach because Im in 51talk family. The management helps us alot from day 1. They are able to guide us and encourage us to do our best. The most enjoyable part of the job is being able to experienced the fun in teaching kids. The hardest part of my job is to be able to work especially when there is a power interruption from our place. Despite of the pandemic Im still thankful that I have a job. 51talk helps me a lot and my family to survive this crisis we are facing. Looking for more trainings and become a junior teacher, someday.

They have flexible plotting of schedule but there is no guarantee that all your open schedule will be book.I always experience low booking even though I open my slots on peak hours.The penalty is higher than your hourly rate.They should have consideration on the employees part.
Pros
Flexible schedule
Cons
low booking, No student, Higher penalty rate
Fun and challenging. You can manage your own time thus it is very flexible. All you have to do is to maintain the reliability to avoid penalties. The promotion is very quick.
working at 51 talk was a good experience and a tool to improve your communication, typing, internet skills. It is a good company but the salary is a little low
Very convenient, and the work hours are flexible! For a person like me who rarely wants to go out and deal with the hot Philippine weather, a job like this is awfully convenient! I usually work at night so I can spend more time with my family in the day which is great!
I used to work for Acadsoc for 2 years and the compensation I got is nowhere near how much I earn now with 51Talk. Everything has just been so good, so far - from the salary, benefits, and volume of students; not to mention the ease of the application process, it only took me 3 days to complete!
I couldn't be more happier to have made the switch!

The application process was easy, the training program was fast, & the onboarding experience was just awesome!
I was guided on how to open up my very first class, & I've had great support ever since!
51Talk is definitely a lot better than other ESL companies. Its salary, benefits, & student bookings trump Acadsoc's.

Abusive to workers, strict, not paid as much as the value you produce, all in all, would not recommend. Find a job where you are valued. I guess that's all but this review requires a minimum number of words
