However, we received the following testimony from a Lime English teacher in March 2022, who echoes the upward trajectory seen in later reviews (though the aforementioned interview problems persist):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I have been working as a remote ESL teacher for LIME for just over four months. I have been quite happy with this position as well as the staff.
Regarding the position, I have found the students to be polite and dedicated to their studies. Having taught in China in-person for two years, this is not a surprise to me.
Regarding the staff of LIME, I have been extremely pleased. I was given training initially and have received on-going support whenever needed. I love the structure of this teaching. I only need to click on the program and can quickly see my schedule. As there are changes periodically, especially during festivals, the staff inform me first and then update my online schedule. The feedback process is great. My opinion is well respected by both the staff and the parents. As time has gone one, I have received a significant increase in my pay rate and been given the opportunity to weigh in on important matters.
In summary, I enjoy my work with LIME very much. I feel both respected and supported.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nUpon being asked whether there was anything that Lime English could improve upon, they replied:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I believe some of the parents have invested in classes that were either too easy or too difficult for their child. Then they are ‘stuck’ with their choice. I have worked with youth who simply could not learn at that level and I have worked with some youth who were bored by the ease of the lessons. I feel there should be more input provided to the parents prior to their selection. Hopefully this input would come from a qualified teacher.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nConclusion – Is Lime English Worth It?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
On the surface, Lime English’s potential pay rate, opportunity to teach multiple subjects (beyond ESL), and absence of TPR or props might be appealing to experienced North American and British teachers. However, while there is no minimum hours requirement, people have experienced problems at the interview stage, and the need to commit to the same slots for months, once picked, means Lime English are not worth it for teachers requiring more week-to-week flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
