Are your teachers paid a fair wage?

In the world of online language learning, much has been written about unfair labor practices and wages. Some of the competitors that our students mention most often have a bad reputation online for these issues.

We believe that everyone deserves a healthy, living wage. Every teacher that works at SpanishVIP receives the following as their compensation structure.

1. A healthy base salary
2. Unlimited overtime opportunities
3. Consistent financial bonuses for good performance/shining student reviews
4. Paid time-off and sick days

We offer incentives outside of these frequently (paid dinners and gifts) as a way to surprise teachers and make their experience here delightful.

We provide considerable professional development and unlimited growth opportunities to those who work hard and take initiative. In short, we start with a fair base pay and offer strong incentives based on performance.

To understand how we are able to do the above things while offering the prices that we do, consider that the costs of living are significantly lower in Colombia than most other countries (especially North America and Europe). See Numbeo.com for examples of a cost-of-living index.
