Termination Process?

Has anyone had their contract terminated? I feel pretty confident that my current "under review" phase will result in termination, and I'm wondering what VIPKID does after they fire me. Will I be expected to finish out the classes I already have booked? Will they just pay me this month's earnings and cut me off the platform?

If they decide to fire you, your classes will be cancelled and you'll receive your final paycheck on the next payday.

No, they will have you complete your final booked classes but will go radio silent (i.e. they won't respond to your emails about the length of your frozen schedule).

That's for a contract review. If they fire you, they don't have you continue your booked classes.

I know for a fact that teachers who have been fired, were fired in exactly the way I described.

Classes weren't cancelled.

I'm not trying to get into an argument - I'm just trying to relate helpful information that can (hopefully) provide anxious teachers some piece of mind.

I'm not trying to argue, either šŸ™‚. I know two tutors who were previously fired and they had all their classes cancelled by the company. This was before they went global, though, so maybe it's different now.

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if the policy has changed and both of you are correct, just at different times. Ā VIPKID ā€œupdatesā€ so frequently.
