By the way, you may read the hiring process and salary rates of these two companies in my first article about HBT. https://read.cash/@Althea26/home-based-teacher-hbt-47900542 Please leave your thoughts in the comment and queries. Just a little help. Please subscribe to my account and I will subscribe yours as well.

All I write about HBT are my experiences as online English teacher for more than two years. This kind of job really helped me in my studies in college and right now as my source of income.

REVIEWS AND TIPS:

I am using Lenovo Laptop 15 inches with the following specs:

-Intel(R) Core (TM) i3-5005U CPU @2.00GHz

-4gb RAM and 1000 gb ROM

-CPU benchmark: 2041

-has built-in camera.

This laptop passed the tech check of both companies.

In my first two years, I used plantronics as my headset. It is very light and has great noise-cancelling feature. Please see the photo below. This is kinda pricey.

Right now, I am using MPOW headset. This is also great. However, it is so tight in the head. Please see the photo below. I bought this at shopee for 999 and no shipping fee.


51talk is more strict in terms of technology requirements than Native Camp. 51talk has an application needed for class. That's why they need higher speed laptop. While Native Camp uses Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
