Company Information for Native Camp
Native Camp is one of the LEADING online language platforms.
The platform was created for busy business professionals, students, and others who need to practice their ENGLISH LANGUAGE with English speakers.
The teaching process is very PLEASANT & EASY. You do not need professional certification or experience as a teacher. All you need is a good level of English and motivation to gain something extra.
Language lessons are held online through VIRTUAL classrooms. The teacher and the student can see, hear and interact with each other as in a traditional language school, just online.

Native Camp? Not for native speakers.
Many teachers are a victim of the COVID19 scamdemic as everyone else is; however, while “native speakers” are encouraged to apply and even work locals in the Philippines are given preference. Why? Philippines home-based tutors are paid a scant $1 dollar per class as opposed to the others who are paid $3-4 per. If you peruse their training videos you’ll encounter a plastic Filipina with a frozen smile who has an odd pronunciation style: “Let’s start” = “Less tart”. I pushed myself to take 10-15 students per day to gain as much cash as possible. Take note: while NC displays PHP 30K to PHP 80K per month in their graphics the reality is you’re hindered or prevented from earning these actual figures if you’re not an office based teacher. Office based teachers are in a building in Cebu, Philippines. The only working phone numbers are for “office” and the person says with a smirk on the phone that “this is office and not ‘home-based'”. There is no contact number for home based and no email address for any of the board members that are listed online. All communication to the home based “management” goes through their intranet.
The students are mainly Japanese with some Taiwan Chinese as well. You’ll hear often “It’s so hard to get a native speaker” but you’ll also too often get odd student behaviors: students cutting the class off to avoid paying and damaging ratings, ringers taking classes to force down native speakers ratings in favor of local office teachers, unsupervised young students who don’t pay attention to the teacher or do crafts while the class is in session then poor or no rating is given, young students who chat about their toys and won’t engage with the teacher then low rating is given, persons taking “free conversation” class then attacking the teacher regarding teachers’ location or politics of the country they’re from, teachers required by parents to be “edutainers” or “dancing monkeys” for young children explicitly not encouraged in company verbiage or training videos, rude or abusive adults who discourage the teacher from actual teaching, platform used by businesses to translate advertising materials then giving a low rating to teachers. You’re hindered by technical issues on the platform: students log in then log out, android crashes, wifi signal issues, etc.
You’re only paid if you’re given a rating by the student so it’s not unusual to give 5 out of 7 classes and not get paid and students will brag about “taking 1000s of free classes”. The platform does not police the students and you’ll get strange messages regarding “using your mobile” during the classes. You’ll see your rating go down with no explanation or way to review negative reviews. Recently the platform instituted a way to challenge discouraging reviews but often still there are no details regarding the issues.
I was deactivated but the platform still uses the teachers likeness and bio to promote the site. I was told in an intranet message that bios cannot be deleted and are “in the system forever”. Teachers may be sent a curious email detailing about how if they created “an improvement plan” they could be reactivated. But…again…and still…not enough information is provided regarding the alleged “behavioral or teaching issues” to create said plan and vague or ambiguous comments about ratings or complaints without evidence. They can and will ignore your messages if they choose to and answer the ones they “feel like” responding to. Their accounting practices are mysterious and you won’t be paid for all of the classes you take.
From researching NC using Google or other SEs this behavior has been happening for a long time and has not been addressed by senior management or it’s CEO Kunihiro Tanikawa. NC is building wealth by doing volume, charging low fees, and abusing teachers/tutors who are just trying to feed their families.
Rude, unconscionable, wrong, and evil.
One final note: A recent instructor was given final pay while I’ve seen complaints from teachers regarding non-pay. I’m assuming some are luckier than others.
Angel Brown says
I’ve been online with Native Camp for over a year now; South Africa is blocked by their website at times and some of my SA brothers and sisters can’t get work when logged in. I can’t put together enough classes to get any kind of decent income to help my family during this pandemic. I’ve gotten the fake student reviews like others I’ve seen on the internet and found my rating pushed down with no way to push back and the admin just doesn’t care. Find something else or spin your wheels wasting time. AB.

I have gone through all the stepps. The las step is ot wait for the account to be activated by an admin. Months have gone no admin has activated the account. Is there any way I can contact them?
Alex Markovic says
Hi Dusan!
We are sorry for the inconvenience, please send a message to our admin team through the Contant Us page to check if there are some technical issues happening.

Rebecca Veerasamy says
Native Camp is racially biased. If you are dark skinned like me they keep you waiting in the queue for a system check and when you are next, they disconnect you from the session. They wasted my time.
Alex Markovic says
Hi Rebecca,
We are sorry to hear you’ve been experiencing difficulties with your application process.
If you’ve been waiting in the queue for too long, that means our admins cannot connect with you because of technical problems on your side.
Please check your internet connection, your browser, as well as your camera and your headset.
We hope the situation will resolve soon. Don’t lose hope!
Best regards,
Native Camp Team
