Constant emails requesting free lessons - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei italki: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Wow. I made my account and within hours was flooded with messages from students asking to do a "language exchange" (e.g. they teach you their language and you teach them your language). I also received many emails from men who were clearly interested in...something other than learning English. I didn't respond to those messages and some of them quickly turned hostile with the men swearing at me in both English and their language. I reported them and deactivated my account. It wasn't worth the headache...especially since most English teachers are charging $15 or less an hour.
