      Pros

      Lots of students around the world to connect with

      Cons

      Wow. I made my account and within hours was flooded with messages from students asking to do a "language exchange" (e.g. they teach you their language and you teach them your language). I also received many emails from men who were clearly interested in...something other than learning English. I didn't respond to those messages and some of them quickly turned hostile with the men swearing at me in both English and their language. I reported them and deactivated my account. It wasn't worth the headache...especially since most English teachers are charging $15 or less an hour.

      Pros

      Quick responses to support requests.

      Cons

      Saturated field with many teachers traveling in third world countries that afford them a lower cost of living and driving the prices of professional teachers down for the rest of us who have higher cost of living.
