Easy matching system, great opportunity!

I was looking for students in Budapest, Hungary and teacher finder made the job much easier. Ever since I started I have been successfully matched with great students and we've easily arranged our lessons.
Teacher finder works in the best possible way, our communication has been excellent, simple and fast, and the best is that I have the opportunity to do what I like with flexible schedules that I choose with the students.

Teacher Finder

Teacher Finder is definitely one of the best thing that could happen to me as a private teacher. After a quick entry process I got into their absolutely friendly and helpful team and got new students within a week or so.
By choosing your interests they match you with students who has similar hobbies, etc., so - at least in my case - we usually end up having a 1.5 hours class because we just like to chat and talk about ideas, experiences and culture. It is great to meet people from all over the world and immediately have something in common.
The process is very easy from the beginning, the quick updates for the team takes only a few seconds which is very convenient. Also, no hidden fees.
What I have learnt with Teacher Finder that really, trust goes both ways; and it can result in something amazing!

Simple Smart and Effective

I came across the Teacher Finder website by chance just a few weeks ago. I was interested in teaching private language classes, but uninspired by the idea of applying to language schools. After a quick and easy process of filling out and submitting some online forms, Teacher Finder welcomed me to their community and immediately began matching me with students.

I find their system to be extremely effective. I also appreciate that they did not charge money to register, but trust the teacher to pay a fixed amount to Teacher Finder after the first four sessions with each new student.

Teacher Finder employees respond quickly to emails and I find their whole system for communicating very easy to use. I'm happy to have encountered this resource and hope many others will benefit from their services.

A great site!

The guys at teacher finder are very supportive and so far I am having a positive experience. They are always there to help and the students they match you with are a great match for you as they are required to fill out a questionaire before being matched to a teacher. I find the freedom they give you in choosing your hours to be very effective.
In addition, every few weeks you are encouraged to update your availability in case any chances have been made to your current schedule. If you have an enquiries or problems, teacher finder are on call to help. I would recommend anyone to this site!

Great opportunities and great staff

I have been working as a teacher for Teacher Finder for about 6 months and I would say that the experience is absolutely positive.
Not only is the organization excellent but also the staff is amazing.
The team is really supportive and efficient at their jobs. They are always ready to help and they stay in touch with you just to make sure that you can live your teaching experience at your best. Moreover, the service itself is easy to use and no intrusiveness at all. Even the paperwork/payment is fast and simple.
This is an excellent way to find students and meet great people. I have had great students so far, amazing people coming from different part of the world with whom I am still in touch.

What would you improve about this program?
I teach in Rome which is a very big city with a very extended centre so the cost of transportation as well as the time you spend on public transport are very consistent. As a solution it could be considered to split the transportation cost between students and teachers and to ask students to book for not least than 2 lessons at time.

Very good service.

The guys at teacher finder are in regular contact. The service is excellent. If you need a quality teacher fast they sort it out. If you need students to teach fast they also sort it out and all that for a fair referral fee.
They have a great amount of qualified teachers and seem to have enough requests so it is somewhat easy to find students through them if you teach.
I would definitely recommend them!

What would you improve about this program?
I don't see much how. But if it could be done you can speak to the guys working there directly and tell them.

Great for finding quality students

I've been with Teacher Finder for over a year, and have had great students. They've been well matched to me in terms of time availability, interests, skills they want to learn, etc. The staff are easy to work with and the paperwork/payment is fast and simple. Basically, you fill out a profile form for Teacher Finder and they use that published profile to match you with interested students. It's a great way to find students and build your own mini-school after you're in a country.

What would you improve about this program?
This program is great for teachers to find students once the teacher is in the country.

Love Teacher Finder

Teacher Finder is an efficient and reliable organisation that has found me excellent teaching opportunities over the years. As well as being professional they're also friendly and accessible.

Teacher Finder has helped me solve unexpected situations regarding my english lessons and has been approachable and helpful at all times.

Teacher Finder has developed and grown profoundly throughout the years and it has been an absolute pleasure to be a part of this process.

What would you improve about this program?
Teacher Finder seems to be constantly looking for ways to improve and this is definitely felt by its pool of teachers.

Great Organization!

I am currently a student in Budapest and was looking for some extra income. I had been looking for students earlier, and Teacher Finder made the process easy! Teacher Finder has helped me receive a steady income and I always receive support when I need it while also given a lot of freedom. Teacher Finder connects those in your city who are looking for English lessons, and you take care of the rest.

TeacherFinder Works

I had been teaching English in Budapest as a private tutor for several years (to students found mostly via online tutor-advertising websites or word-of-mouth) when, about half a year ago, I happened upon the local branch of TeacherFinder, LearnEnglishBudapest, while browsing the Internet; and quickly signed up for it. I'm glad that I did so, because since then they have matched me up with lots of individual students, as well as English teacher-seeking language schools, thus augmenting my teaching income. The service is uncomplicated, easy, and effective to use, with clear-cut rules, and no intrusiveness at all on their part after the initial match-up. The fee they charge is reasonable and one-time only. Communications with them are friendly, open, and courteous; they usually answer questions or concerns promptly, as well as providing any advice needed. Overall, I think that TeacherFinder is a really simple and efficient, almost ideal, avenue for finding and connecting with English-language learners in your area, especially for one-on-one private tutoring.

What would you improve about this program?
As for any aspects of this service that could be improved - well, for one thing, it would be better if TeacherFinder could recruit more students (and teachers) from the more outlying, peripheral, suburban and fringe areas of the city, instead of being concentrated mostly on the downtown/city center/main city area like it now is. That would reduce transportation time and costs involved in meeting with the students. In addition, it would probably be a good idea to spread increases in the advertised lesson prices out over a more extended period of time, since too-rapid rises in lesson prices might result in lower numbers of potential students willing to use this service (although TeacherFinder gives teachers wide leeway in negotiating instructional fees with individual pupils).
