Advanced user of TakeLessonsIt's a very easy platform for students to find teachers. I had many long term private students connect with me over the app. As a dance teacher, this intermediary platform was really useful.
TakeLessons is much better for the student than the teacher. Students pay the same price from beginning to end, and teachers pay the consequences of having to complete 20 lessons before achieving 90% of their asking price.
There is almost no information given about the student before acceptance. I had to ask the student where they were booking from as I moved from East Coast to West Coast. I ended up having to accept the student before being able to communicate with them if it was a good fit.
The worst thing about it is that I ran into a complication of whether or not a student would be a good fit, and discussing their location, and whether they had access to a dance studio, as they were looking for lessons close to home. After speaking with customer service for an extended period, they accused me of lying on the phone, and since calls are recorded, I asked for a transcript, and they refused, though I am certain that when speaking with the representative I had given different information than they had stated, hoping to book clients at all costs. It caused me to leave the platform.
