Cambly is an online platform that connects English learners with native speakers for conversational practice and tutoring. It offers two main services: Cambly Classic, which focuses on adults improving their general, business, or exam-preparation English, and Cambly Kids, designed for young learners. The platform emphasizes flexibility, allowing tutors to teach from anywhere with internet access and set their own schedules. Payments are processed weekly, and tutors earn per minute of chat time, making it a popular choice for those seeking a side income or remote work opportunity.
Becoming a tutor on Cambly requires applicants to be native English speakers and at least 18 years old. No formal teaching experience, degree, or TEFL certification is needed, although having these credentials can boost a tutor’s appeal and income. Tutors must complete a simple application process, including creating a video introduction for prospective students. Reliable internet, a computer with a webcam, and a quiet teaching space are essential for the job. Tutors have full control over their schedules and can choose between adult or children-focused programs, with earnings ranging from approximately $10.20 to $12 per hour, depending on the type of sessions they conduct.
