EDSY is one of the few Asian-owned online ESL companies that are generous in paying their tutors. Although this isn’t a lucrative job, the paycheck you’ll get biweekly is definitely more than enough to live by.
Why Many Filipino ESL Teachers Want to Apply At EDSY?
EDSY has better pay compared to a lot of ESL companies, period.
Let’s face it, salary has a profound effect in our decision to accept a job offer, am I right? Or am I right?
Of course, the ‘work’ is obviously more important but we can’t deny the fact that the compensation we get is the biggest motivation to keep grinding. When we’re not paid fairly, then our enthusiasm will ultimately tail off.
On my previous post about EDSY, I wrote about the FAQs or frequently asked questions from people online and if you’re one of the many aspiring tutors at EDSY, then you must check my FAQs.
Note: EDSY salary for Filipino Online Tutors may vary per person and this can be due to several factors like experience, credentials, performance during the interview and demo, among other things. If you’re planning to apply at EDSY as an online tutor, then, manage your expectations.

EDSY Pays Tutors Twice A Month
Tutors are paid biweekly on the 17th day of the same month (for cycle of 1st-15th) and on the 2nd day of the following month (for the cycle of 16th-31st) to the bank account that was provided to the company by the tutor.
Note: No shows, tardiness, and any technical-related issues have corresponding penalties and consequences at EDSY. These issues are taken seriously and if the same IT problems happen for more than 3 times, the tutor’s contract will be terminated.
