Hallo
Hallo Review
Hallo <—- (Click here to Apply) is based in Provo, Utah, USA. They have an app, and use it for some types of classes but not all. Potential teachers must install the Hallo app and create a student account. Then they have to make a 1 minute introduction video and submit an application through their website. The students are mostly 18-30 years old English learners from many countries, the most common ones are Indonesia, India, Turkey, Egypt and Brazil.
They have two types of teachers. For the basic level, teachers must speak English with a native or bilingual fluency and have at least 1 year of experience. For the more advanced level (Hallo courses) teachers must be legally eligible to work in Canada of the USA, have two years of teaching experience and have either a bachelor’s degree in any major related to English or a TEFL certificate. They pay different rates for their different types of classes. It seems like thy pay a minimum of $7.5 USD per hour for 1-to-1 classes but usually more. Their group classes pay like this: 4 students: $30/hour, 3 students: $22.25/hour and 2 students: $15/hour (though teachers are required to spend 30 minutes before each group class preparing). They pay with Stripe and PayPal.
