Teacher Testimonials
Experience from all over the world.
Teacher Corrine
I am a full-time elementary school teacher by day, a grad student by night, and a mom and wife 24/7. DaDa has been the very best fit to me. I can work for a few hours in the morning before school, teach a full day in my traditional classroom, spend time with my family, and squeeze in grad work before bed.
Before DaDa, I was working like a madwoman in side hustles and shift work that drained me. While waking at 4 AM or 5 AM can be a little tiring, I honestly finish every shift energized, inspired, and proud because of the bright and motivated students I teach.
Teacher Jason
I was a novelist and full-time technical copywriter in an office. During my career as an author, I wrote and self published a children's fantasy novel called ‘War Drum'. After publishing the novel, I couldn't believe the positive feedback I was getting, this made me finding it harder and harder to balance writing my books with working a 9-5 schedule…
That is why I left my job in the office and thankfully I found DaDa. I am not only grateful for the flexible schedule allowing me to write my books, but I am also grateful for the joy I feel whilst teaching the students.
Teacher Cristina
I'm from Canada, but I'm currently living in beautiful, sunny Portugal. It isn't very easy to be a teacher here. Sometimes teachers are sent to schools far away from home, and they have to sacrifice their personal lives to go after their jobs. I've never wanted to give up teaching. However, I'm not willing to harm my family that I love above all. That's why I'm so grateful to DaDa! It allows me to work from home and to seize valuable moments with my family and friends. The schedule is flexible, the pay is rewarding, and the environment is supportive.
Chelsea Joe
I've never been the most outgoing guy, but the children have been so polite and entertaining to teach, that I find myself talking more naturally than I ever have before. I am currently trying to study a new language myself (Thai), which has given me an incredible sense of respect for the students I work with on DaDa.
Learning to speak a new language can be one of the most awkward, and difficult things to attempt, something I've discovered this year, living in Asia, so I am grateful for the opportunity to help children do just that.
