I have been working with Oxinity for over a year. I am confused by the description of a ‘pyramid system’ Yes, the idea is for teachers to recruit students, they are then shared between teachers, as is the payment. It is actually a great way of boosting income and collaborating with other teachers. This is far from a pyramid system, which I fully understand and have been involved with in the past (not as a teacher). Teachers recruiting teachers and earning money from their students, could be described as that.
The activities we teach are written by teachers, another way of boosting income.
The system Oxinity offers has been wrongly described here, through lack of knowledge. Having been an online teacher for over 10 years, I can honestly say, this is by far the best company I have been invoved with. The support is endless, I have learnt so much about marketing and business growth and have met some amazing people, both teachers and students alike.

Hi Bev,
I was wondering if there was an email where I could send my resume for an administration position at the company.
Thank you,

My experience there was terrible – late and wrong payments every month, and the responsible for payments was lazy and incompetent (she would often `forget` that she had to pay you and make the dialogue as difficult as possible)
The other staff members were friendly and approachable

I just had an interview with a “partner” from Oxinity and can confirm this is a pyramid scheme. You have to pay 150€ to join the community and are asked to recruit students. This for me was a major red flag. Also, the platform with the material they use for the lessons looks like something out of Windows97 software. Avoid at all costs.

I had my Interview with 4 others(definitely non native English speakers) 2 days ago and I ‘thought’ it all went well but have to agree with the negative comments from above.
My experience: Interview was 45 minutes of wasting my time plus the preparation time that I had put into it. The interviewer couldn’t swith on her microphone for the first 5 minutes and then when she did there was a terrible echo throughout the session!
Some sort of Pyramid scheme, yes it is! You will have to pay to join it(no idea how much as the Interviewer would not divulge that information). More imortantly as I found out a day later that you HAVE TO BE A RESIDENT TAX PAYER in whichever country you are in and so for true Nomads it’s really a waste of time! This was not made clear to me in the beginning and if it had been clear I would not have wasted my time! In my view still very new and has lot’s of teething problems to work through.

In case anyone is going to apply to this “company”, they interview you alongside other applicants in a group of 6 or 7. You each have about 1 minute to say your piece, who you are, your experience, and why you’re applying. Then they will either pass you or fail you based on that. You will find out if you passed or failed after a one hour presentation about the company and how it works. Why they can’t save that for after you’ve passed is beyond my comprehension.
Like Teacher Liz said, this seems to be some sort of pyramid scheme, but they will paint it as the perfect solution to every problem there is. Except that they need you to recruit more students for the “company”.
One hour of my life down the drain, not to mention all the time spent preping for the interview. My advice; apply elsewhere.

I could see from the get-go this was too good to be believed. Pleased I didn’t misuse my time interviewing for these time-wasters. Thanks for the heads-up TEACHER LIZ!

To begin with, this is not a company. This is something like a pyramid scheme. In other words, they need to “hire” more teachers in order to grow and you are encouraged to do the same. Plus, you need to be legally registered as a freelance teacher (I am) in your country and show proof of that before you start.
I was invited to an interview, then accepted. Afterwards, I was invited to a series of webinars to receive some training. I did not attend that because after being accepted nobody turned up the date and time they had previously arranged. I wasted 30 minutes of my life waiting for them. Apart from that, my emails were not answered in the begining. Some hours later I received an email simply saying I should book another slot with no more explanation, apologize or whatsoever. I feel it is quite unprofessional from a freelance teacher point of view.
