ChatGPT Advice

⏰ Best Times to Teach on Cambly from Southeast Asia

Cambly runs 24/7, but not all hours are equal. To maximize your paid talk time, it’s important to log on during the peak hours when students are online. From Southeast Asia (Philippines, Bangkok, Vietnam), here’s what works best:

🌞 Morning Slot (8 AM – 11 AM local time)

  • Who you’ll be teaching:

    • Students from the Middle East (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Turkey) logging in during their very early morning.

    • Learners in East Asia (Japan, Korea, China) starting their workday.

  • Why it works: You’ll be online when demand is high in Asia and the Middle East, giving you steady calls.

  • Expected talk time: At least 2 hours of billable conversations in a 3-hour slot if you use Priority Hours.


🌙 Evening Slot (7 PM – 11 PM local time)

  • Who you’ll be teaching:

    • Learners in Europe (peak evening hours in Europe line up perfectly with Southeast Asia’s late night).

    • Some students in the US starting their day (morning/afternoon in US time zones).

  • Why it works: Evening in Asia overlaps with prime time in Europe when adults and students log in after work or school.

  • Expected talk time: Again, expect 2+ hours of billable calls in a 3-hour session.


📊 Suggested Work Routine

  • Option 1 – Part-time (2 hours/day):

    • Log in during either the morning OR evening slot.

    • Reliable for ~10 hours/week of talk time = about $400/month.

  • Option 2 – Full-time (4 hours/day):

    • Do 2 hours in the morning + 2 hours in the evening.

    • Reliable for ~20 hours/week of talk time = about $800/month.

🎯 Tips & Tricks to Succeed on Cambly

  1. Use Priority Hours

    • This guarantees Cambly will promote your profile during the hours you commit.

    • It’s the best way to avoid sitting idle and maximize paid minutes.

  2. Polish Your Intro Video

    • Speak clearly, smile, and highlight your friendliness and patience.

    • Students choose tutors largely based on the video — make it warm and inviting.

  3. Stay Flexible with Students

    • Some want structured grammar help, others just want conversation.

    • Be adaptable — Cambly rewards tutors who get good student ratings.

  4. Take Notes & Personalize Lessons

    • Remember names, jobs, and goals of repeat students.

    • Small touches like “How was your presentation at work?” help you keep loyal learners.

  5. Optimize Internet & Setup

    • Stable internet + quiet background = better ratings.

    • A simple headset and good lighting make a huge difference.

  6. Be Patient in the Beginning

    • The first few weeks may feel slow, but once you build reviews and repeat students, your schedule fills up quickly.



✅ Bottom Line

From Southeast Asia, the best Cambly times are 8–11 AM and 7–11 PM local time.

  • Mornings connect you with Asia and the Middle East.

  • Evenings connect you with Europe and early US learners.

If you stick to those slots, use Priority Hours, and deliver a friendly, reliable experience, you can easily secure 2–4 billable hours per day and earn $400–$800 per month just by chatting in English.

Plan Moving Forward – TEFL Certificate

Once I’ve established a steady rhythm on Cambly and I’m comfortable with conversational English teaching, the next step is to invest in a 120-hour TEFL certificate.

The TEFL course is important because it moves me from casual conversation practice into structured English teaching — where I’ll be able to design classes, follow a framework, and teach both adults and children in a more professional way.

With a TEFL certificate, I unlock access to hundreds of teaching platforms worldwide that pay in the range of $20–$25 per hour. That means instead of earning around $12 per hour, I’ll be able to double my income while working the same number of hours. For example:

  • 4 hours a day, Monday–Friday:

    • At $12/hour = about $800/month

    • At $20–$25/hour = about $1,600–$2,000/month

This puts me on a stable, professional salary, but with the freedom and flexibility to work remotely on my own terms. Unlike agency jobs where I get overworked and discarded after a few months, teaching with a TEFL certificate gives me a reliable fallback career with endless demand — there will always be students eager to learn English.

While an online TEFL course is the fastest and most affordable option, I may also choose to do a physical in-class course later for the extra hands-on training. Either way, the TEFL path provides me with long-term security, the chance to earn a solid income from anywhere, and the independence of building my own schedule without being tied down to the digital marketing grind.

👉 In short: TEFL certification is my gateway to structured teaching, higher pay, and a sustainable online career.

Three Cambly Video Scripts

👉 Pro tip: Record in good lighting, smile, keep it under 1 minute, and speak at a clear, steady pace.

Casual Script

(relatable, laid-back, easygoing)

“Hey there! My name’s Ivan, and I’m really excited about the idea of teaching on Cambly. I’ve been living abroad for the past few years, so I know what it’s like to communicate across different cultures. I’m patient, friendly, and I really enjoy having conversations that help people improve their English naturally. Whether it’s casual chats or more focused practice, I’ll make sure students feel comfortable, supported, and motivated. I’m looking forward to meeting new students and helping them on their English journey!”

Professional Script

(structured, confident, clear)

“Hello, my name is Ivan, and I’m applying to become a tutor on Cambly. I bring strong communication skills, cultural awareness, and a natural ability to make learners feel at ease. My goal is to create a positive, engaging environment where students can build confidence in their English speaking abilities. I believe in adapting to each learner’s needs—whether conversational practice, pronunciation, or general fluency. I’m excited for the opportunity to join Cambly and support students worldwide in achieving their language goals.”

Friendly Script

(warm, upbeat, welcoming)

“Hi! My name’s Ivan, and I’m so excited to meet students from all over the world here on Cambly. I love having great conversations and helping people feel comfortable while practicing English. I know learning a language can sometimes feel scary, so I make it fun, encouraging, and relaxed. If you’d like someone patient, easy to talk to, and always ready with a smile, I’d love to be your tutor. I can’t wait to get started and help students grow more confident in English every day!”

Ivan Personalized ScriptSouth African Version

(casual, professional, friendly)

Hi, my name is Ivan. I’m from South Africa, and I’ve lived an adventurous and very diverse life that gives me lots to share with my students.

I started out as a police officer and even worked during South Africa’s historic 1994 elections, when Nelson Mandela became president. After that, I followed my love of the ocean and became a scuba diving instructor, traveling and working in places like Zanzibar and the Comoros Islands.

Later, I built a family business in South Africa, running a manufacturing plant and opening 10 retail showrooms. I also moved into property development and investment, where at one point I owned more than 10 properties. After the 2010 property crash, I had to completely reinvent myself — and that’s how I discovered digital marketing and online business, which I’ve been doing ever since.

Today, I live in Southeast Asia (currently the Philippines) and I love exploring different cultures. I’m passionate about travel, van life, sailing, and new adventures.

What does this mean for you as a student?

It means I can talk to you about a wide range of topics — business, travel, history, culture, or just everyday conversation to help you practice your English fluency. I know what it’s like to start over, to adapt, and to grow, so I always bring patience and encouragement into my lessons.

If you’d like to improve your English in a relaxed but engaging way, let’s chat!

Conversation Hooks

Here are some Conversation Hooks for you:

  1. Adventure Hook:
    “I once left South Africa with nothing but a backpack and ended up living in the Philippines for 5 years.”

  2. Resilience Hook:
    “I’ve run businesses, lost businesses, and rebuilt myself more than once—I’ve got some crazy stories about it.”

  3. Connection Hook:
    “I grew up in South Africa, but I’ve learned to make home wherever I go. Ever felt like that?”

  4. Curiosity Hook:
    “I once managed 10 showrooms at the same time—it taught me a lot about people. Want to hear the wildest customer story?”

  5. Fun Hook:
    “I’ve eaten things in Asia that most South Africans would run away from—want to guess the weirdest one?”

These let people pick up the thread and keep the chat flowing naturally.

Conversation Cheat Sheet

🔑 Strategy for Keeping Conversation Flowing

  1. Start with comfort questions (safe, easy, non-threatening).

  2. Move into personal interests (food, hobbies, music, daily life).

  3. Expand with “why/how” follow-ups (instead of yes/no).

  4. Sprinkle in your own small shares (keeps it balanced, not an interrogation).

How Filipinos Can Start Earning Online with English Tutoring

Why Cambly is Life-Changing for Filipinos 🇵🇭

For many Filipinos, the daily grind is brutal:

  • 8–12 hour shifts

  • 2–4 hours wasted in traffic

  • $300–$500/month salaries that barely cover expenses

That’s 14–16 hours of your day gone… just to scrape by.

But with Cambly, things change completely:

  • Work from home (or anywhere with WiFi)

  • Earn $10/hour — 2–3x the average Filipino salary

  • Work just 4 hours a day, 5 days a week = $800/month

  • Set your own schedule: mornings, evenings, or split shifts

  • Travel-friendly: teach from Vietnam, Thailand, or anywhere

Instead of grinding 16 hours to make $400, you can work 4 hours to make $800. That’s not just extra income — it’s a lifestyle upgrade.

For fluent Filipinos with clear English, this is a massive opportunity. It’s freedom, stability, and dignity all rolled into one.

Step 1: Start Simple with Cambly

If you can speak English and have a half-decent accent, you can already start making money online. One of the easiest platforms is Cambly. They accept many Filipino applicants and pay around $10 per hour.

Now, let’s be realistic. $10 an hour may not sound like much, but if you work 4 hours a day, you’re already looking at about $800 per month. That’s steady income while only working half a day.


Step 2: Build Regular Students

The secret to making Cambly work for you is building up regulars. Filipinos are naturally enthusiastic, friendly, and patient—these qualities are exactly what students look for. If you show up consistently, bring energy, and make students feel comfortable, you’ll start building regulars who book you week after week.

This means you’ll have reliable income without constantly chasing new students.


Step 3: Save and Invest in a TEFL Certificate

Once you’ve worked for a month or two and saved a little, use that money to buy a 120-hour TEFL course. This is the golden ticket. A TEFL certificate opens doors to higher-paying platforms and private tutoring opportunities.


Step 4: Double Your Salary

With a TEFL in hand, you can move from earning $10 an hour to earning $15–$20 per hour. That’s life-changing. At $20 per hour, working the same 4 hours a day, you’re now making around $1,600 per month.

That’s double your old salary—without working extra hours.


Step 5: Think Long-Term

This is not just about teaching English. This is about creating a better quality of life:

✅ You’re earning in dollars.
✅ You’re working from home.
✅ You’re meeting interesting people worldwide.
✅ You’re building a skill set that grows over time.

Even if you only ever stay at the $10/hour level, you can still change your life with consistency and effort. But if you push further with a TEFL, you step into completely life-changing money.
