Why I got Fired From VIPKid (And Rehired)

The answer to the burning question: can I reapply to VIPKid?

I loved working for VIPKID, they were the first company I taught for. I became extremely attached to the students I was fortunate to teach.

I worked for VIPKID for only a few months and since then, I have moved on to work with other companies. I’ve learned so much about the ESL industry and the quirks of the different companies available for passionate teachers.

During my third month at VIPKID, I became ill and had to cancel many classes over the course of the month. They were quite understanding for the most part, but eventually, my account went under review.

What happens when VIPKID puts your account under review?

Most likely you will know it’s coming.

VIPKID has a 6-cancellation limit. That means if you are not granted “soft” or “medium” cancellations, and you tally up to 6 total you will be at risk for termination.

Note: VIPKID allows more than 3 cancellations in one BJT day to count as 2, and less than 3 to count as one.

It won’t be long (about a day or two) before you receive an email from VIPKID that states the following:

Dear teacher
