They are one of the largest online English language schools in Japan, with over 13,000 teachers and half a million (mostly Japanese) students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-much-does-native-camp-pay\">How Much Does Native Camp Pay?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The <strong>Native Camp salary<\/strong> is not advertised on their website, a practice in the industry that usually indicates teachers are offered varying amounts (most often based upon nationality). To confuse matters further, teachers are paid in &#8216;Native Camp Coin&#8217; (NCC) which is then converted, with 1 NCC the equivalent of 0.02084 USD or 1 PHP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Anecdotally, we&#8217;ve been informed that North American Native Speakers can earn $9 for each 25-minute booking they receive ($18 per hour), though to acquire these you have to make yourself available to pick up short-notice spontaneous sessions, which only pay $3-4 a class. Filipino teachers also earn less, around 60PHP per class (approximately $1.25). The <strong>Native Camp hourly rate<\/strong> thus ranges widely between $2-18 per hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">If you are hired, there is (at the time of writing) a <strong>Native Camp new registration incentive<\/strong> worth $45 if you successfully deliver 100 lessons within 2 weeks of your account being activated. Other <strong>Native Camp incentives<\/strong> include a referral scheme and periodic competitions against fellow teachers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-does-native-camp-pay\">How Does Native Camp Pay?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The <strong>Native Camp payment method<\/strong> is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.payoneer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Payoneer<\/a>, or bank transfer if you are Filipino with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bpi.com.ph\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BPI<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pnb.com.ph\/?tpl=revamp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PNB<\/a> account. <strong>Native Camp wages<\/strong> are issued on the 1st and 15th of each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"native-camp-working-hours\">Native Camp Working Hours<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Your <strong>Native Camp class schedule <\/strong>is totally flexible and dependent upon your own availability as a home-based teacher. <strong>Native Camp peak hours<\/strong> are 12.30-7am (Japan Standard Time), but you can choose to teach<strong> <\/strong>at any time, 24\/7, and there is <strong>no Native Camp minimum hours <\/strong>requirement. However, the lessons (and students) you will be allowed to teach will be limited until you pass additional quizzes and acquire all the &#8216;teaching material badges&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-are-the-requirements-for-native-camp\">What Are the Requirements for Native Camp?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">There are relatively few <strong>Native Camp requirements <\/strong>to become a teacher with them. You must:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Be at least 18 years of age<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Speak English to an intermediate level<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Have access to a laptop\/PC with a webcam, microphone headset, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.co.uk\/chrome\/?brand=FKPE&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjwqvyFBhB7EiwAER786UOHKDTizss3PK5WO_ViXflB_Hc7qDXNa3bTj1djVei1bk4oeVLp4xoCQgAQAvD_BwE&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google Chrome<\/a>\/<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mozilla.org\/en-GB\/firefox\/new\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mozilla Firefox<\/a> browser, and stable internet connection with a minimum speed of 2 Mbps (You can check your internet speed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.speedtest.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Despite the company&#8217;s name, there are no nationality restrictions and both Native and Non-Native Speakers can apply (though the pay will likely be too low for those living in Native-Speaking countries).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">You do not need a degree or a TEFL\/TESOL\/CELTA teaching certificate to work for Native Camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Due to an increasing number of applicants following the outbreak of COVID-19, Filipino candidates must possess over 6 months of English teaching experience (other nationalities require no experience). This exception is supposedly temporary until the pandemic ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"native-camp-application-process\">Native Camp Application Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">There are eight steps to the <strong>Native Camp teacher application<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Native Camp registration<\/strong> &#8211; Visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/nativecamp.net\/tutors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Native Camp website<\/a>, click on &#8216;APPLY NOW&#8217;, create an account with your email address and password, and verify. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Submit basic information (name, date of birth, country, nationality, timezone) for your <strong>Native Camp online application<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Pass a 20-minute <strong>English Proficiency Test<\/strong> comprising 40 questions (this can only be attempted once).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Undergo a <strong>system check<\/strong> on your computer, webcam, headset, microphone and internet speed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Study the Native Camp <strong>Learning Kit<\/strong> to prepare for your demo lesson. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Teach a 25-minute <strong>Native Camp demo lesson<\/strong> as part of your interview.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Pass the <strong>Teaching Material Comprehension Quiz<\/strong> consisting of 25 questions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Fill out additional details to complete your registration and start <strong>Native Camp online teaching<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"native-camp-english-proficiency-test\">Native Camp English Proficiency Test<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The first assessment you&#8217;ll have to take, immediately after registering and submitting your basic info., is the Native Camp English Proficiency Test.
