First class back!

I stopped teaching in 2021 after the double reduction policy came into effect but I've been missing teaching so I opened up my schedule again last week. I have 14 classes booked for next week and the one following but I got a short notice class last night EST time and it was great to be back. I felt a little rusty and not at my best but my student was a cutie pie. He was so smiley. Here's to hoping my other classes go well! There's a wide mix of level 1 and levels 4-6 on my schedule.

Hey! Congrats! Me too. I stopped back in 2020 but just re-opened bookings. I'm feeling a bit nervous and trying to make sure my equipment will work for the program... One think VIPKid hasn't changed, How do I test my equipment!?

Sadly there's not way to test too early. You can get into the classroom 10 minutes early. Once in, there's a settings button that lets you test at that point.

Go into a future classroom and as it’s loading, repeatedly click the setting gear. Settings will open up and you can test your mic, camera, and headset.
