Kodland London reviews

Pay is too low in comparison to the number of students in each class. You typically have 5–7 students per group class, which lasts for 1.5 hours, and you have to handle all of them within that tight time frame. Things become much harder when the curriculum gets more complex, yet you still get paid only 14 euros per hour regardless of whether the number of students per group increases. It is very stressful to manage the group with the amount of curriculum that must be taught per class while also handling each student’s inquiries, last class’s homework, current in-class assignments, and fixing technical problems that may arise during class. The tutor is the one under constant stress. You are also required to be part of WhatsApp groups with parents and students for every single class, reply to them privately, raise their concerns to customer support, and continuously respond to messages. You may find yourself flooded with WhatsApp messages on what is supposed to be your personal and private account. Imagine teaching 15 groups, you would be placed in 15 WhatsApp groups with parents and students, which is absolutely crazy and extremely stressful. Your WhatsApp, which is supposed to be your personal space, turns into a 24/7 inquiry-response platform, as if you are working in customer support. All of that comes at the cost of the tutor’s time, energy, and mental health without any extra compensation. All of that is for only 14 euros per hour (with only teaching hours being counted), so you are essentially available 24/7 even though it is considered a part-time position. You are expected to conduct a lot of side work beyond your main teaching responsibilities, which is understandable to some extent, but this level is excessive. Simply, you are available 24/7 for students and parents. The payment scheme is also very unusual. You get paid once a month for classes conducted from the 1st to the 30th of the month on the 15th of the following month which is very strange.
