I have been working for just over a year for iTutorGroup, a large Chinese company, who provide online English teaching to Chinese adults and children. I earn around £1500 per month working between 18 and 20 hours a week. Since China is around 7 hours ahead of the UK my lessons take place from lunchtime (12:30) through until 15:30 which ideally fits into my lifestyle. All lesson material is provided so there is very little prep involved. The great thing is that you don't need to be a qualified teacher but you do have to have a degree in any discipline. In addition you need to either have a TEFL qualification or be in the process of obtaining one (the company allows you 30 days from starting to qualify). If you don't have the TEFL qualification there are lots of inexpensive online courses (120 hours) available.
This is ideal work for people who just want to earn some extra cash by working the minimum 10 hours required of for those who want a job as you can work as many hours as you want. As well as teaching I also recruit and interview candidates so if you are interested in becoming an online teacher then please contact me on richard58martin@gmail.com. I'm more than happy to answer any of your questions.

It’s something I’ve fancied doing, but without a degree, I don’t rate my chances which is unfortunate.

I've found a cheap TEFL course which I think I will take to see if this my cup of tea. This may take a while though ;)

Don't you need a year's experience teaching as per this page?

David, the simple answer is no. I have recruited several people who have had no teaching experience. Clearly, experience is preferred but it is not essential.

@Yingers74 How are you finding the TEFL course? I've been looking into this as my cousin does TEFL to Chinese children online and loves it (different company to this one though). I can see 3 or 4 decent TEFL courses on groupon - do you mind me asking which one you went with and what your thoughts are on it, please?

@Rick58 What is the pay for this role please?
