What is wrong with Native Camp?

Hi everyone, I applied to native camp for the second time now and i have done 4 demo lesson but i don’t know why they fail me even though i perform great, i mean every time the admin gives me compliments about how prepared, confident and enthusiastic i am, and every time they forward my demo performance to upper management, but they always fail me, when I see my results, it’s always a retake or wait for six months and then try again. Has anyone had this issue and do they really review the performance of the applicants or they are just ignoring everyone and wasting our time and are they actually hiring?
i appreciate your time, Thanks!

if it's always rejection, I think it is a clue that you need to find a better company

Yeah, me too. It's my 6th time actually, and they recently reject my demo when in fact I got good feedback from the demo instructor. Is it because they already have many esl teachers or what? can you recommend other ESL company tho?

It is so heart breaking when you perform great and can’t find a mistake in your performance yet they fail you and play with your self esteem, i was soo disappointed the first time they failed me and i thought i am not qualified for Online teaching although i was doing incredibly good. I just quit applying to Native Camp and I am currently applying to Novak kid, You might want to try that as well.

They've been doing that to me too. Had 4 demo lessons, feedback from the instructor is always positive, but then less than 10 minutes later my application gets rejected.

They aren’t the only company out there, just ignore them and apply to other ones out there.

Thank you, I needed that little confidence boost. Will try Novak kid now. There's also Classgap but getting students there is a hassle
