• Students that have enrolled are able to hop on and talk with their teacher and classmates. They also have the ability to use the chat.

• One-on-one classes have a five-minute timer warning teachers and students that class will be ending soon. This is a good time to encourage more private lessons and answer any questions
• One-on-one classes will end automatically after the five-minute timer ends. If you have another class quickly join, it seems helpful to refresh before entering the next class.
• Teachers do not need a thumbnail for private lessons.
• Teachers design private lessons to fit the needs of students. 
• Students can request classes weeks in advance or as soon as two minutes before the start time. Teachers have the option to accept or decline the requests. If not accepted it will automatically be removed upon the requested start time.

• Teachers use the provided Hallo curriculum or create their own curriculum for approval.

If the course does not meet the minimum students 24 hours before the start date, the course will automatically be moved back a week. This will give additional time for the course to increase enrollments. If in a week, the class still does not meet the minimum students, it will automatically be canceled.

Teachers are paid $0.16/min or $9.60/hr 

Direct calls can be enabled or disabled on the teacher’s profile settings. Calls come on the mobile app only. When teachers are on the mobile app and direct calls are enabled, students will see that the teacher is active and available for a call. 

Direct calls are a great way to engage your students in casual conversation or help with any questions they have about Hallo. They may want to know your schedule or what speaking clubs you host. Encourage them to take classes with you. 

• After teachers complete a class, they will see a payment in their Hallo wallet.
• Once there is $100+ in the Hallo wallet the teacher can request to cash out.
• Cashing out requests are processed weekly on Fridays.

Hallo teachers can make money as soon as they start, but all good things take time. Hallo students choose their teachers, so be sure to attend teacher trainings and get involved to have your best chance at success.
