You can compare ESL companies using many metrics, depending on which matter most to you.

Degree Requirements

There are many E.S.L companies that do not require a degree. Many companies will hire you to teach English online with no experience besides knowing English!

Conversely, some companies require decades of experience, professional training, and higher education. It just depends on what platform or company you apply to.

Some ESL jobs require you to have a degree and other ESL companies do not require a degree.

Pay Range

Teaching online is often seen as a side-gig. And, indeed, it can be a great side hustle. However, you can also earn a full-time livable wage teaching English online. There are many companies that pay over $20/hour.

Note that each company has a range of pay so the graph above shows base pay to top pay.

Tech Requirements

Some companies require laptops and others let you teach from your iPad or even your phone. You might be looking for an audio-only job, or you might not be able to get an ethernet cabled Internet connection at your location. These are all very specific requirements and this chart will help you find a company that can work with you.

Native Speaker Requirement

If you are a non-native English speaker who wants to teach English online, then search through this category to find employers who want to hire you. Are you unsure of whether you would be considered a native speaker by companies? It isn’t as clear as you would assume- and even problematic. Be sure you are aware of what metrics companies use to qualify an applicant as a native speaker or not.

Pay

Note that each company has a range of pay. In the ESL industry, we often refer to the “base pay” per class. Often, you teach two classes per hour. So, I multiplied the base pay per class by two to reach the hourly pay if the company requires two classes an hour.

Online English Companies are always changing their pay and requirements depending on the ebbs and flows of the industry, so be sure to add a comment below if you see any information that is incorrect.
