DaDa reviews about "salary"

Low salary and less benifits compared to other

The salary started great, with the first month being close to R15 000 SA rands, which is excellent, but by the end I was lucky if I got R3000 per month. I really don't know what happened to the salary structure and booking rates by 2022. In 2018 it was great, but by 2021 I was barely making above R2000.

Low contact and support for teachers

kept cutting pay, some teachers couldn't get students, poor management

low salary and days can be long

It’s sometimes hard to get in touch with administration for issues.

Declining Pay and Benefits Many teachers report significant pay cuts over time, with some earning less than half of their initial salary. Additionally, bonuses and incentives have been reduced or eliminated, leading to decreased overall compensation. Unpredictable Scheduling and Cancellations Teachers often experience sudden changes in their schedules, including the removal of regular students without prior notice. This lack of stability can result in inconsistent working hours and income. Limited Support and Communication Feedback from management can be scarce and sometimes unhelpful. Teachers have reported that customer service is unresponsive, with delayed or inadequate responses to inquiries. Inadequate Teaching Materials The provided courseware is often described as outdated and unengaging, lacking interactive elements that are essential for maintaining student interest. Time Zone Challenges For teachers based outside of China, the required teaching hours can be inconvenient, often falling during early morning hours, which may not be suitable for everyone.
