How much do online teachers earn at Nino? +
Pay is per class, not per hour. Rates depend on subject, experience, and qualifications. Phonics and English teachers with B.Ed. or CELTA/TEFL certification earn at the higher end. Rates increase after 3 months based on parent ratings and student retention. Payments arrive bi-weekly via bank transfer.
Do I need teaching experience to apply? +
Yes, at least 1-2 years of teaching children. It does not have to be online. School teachers, home tutors, tuition centre teachers, and freelance educators all qualify. If you have certifications (B.Ed., Jolly Phonics, THRASS, CELTA, TEFL, TESOL, B.F.A.) but limited experience, still apply - we evaluate the full profile.
Is this a full-time or part-time online teaching job? +
Both options exist. Part-time teachers work 4-12 hours per week. Full-time teachers work 20+ hours per week. Most educators start part-time and increase batches as parent demand grows. You choose your weekly hours and batch slots at onboarding.
What equipment do I need to teach online at Nino? +
A laptop with at least 8GB RAM (Windows or Mac), a 720p+ webcam, a headset or clip-on microphone, broadband internet of 20 Mbps or faster, and a quiet, well-lit teaching space. Art teachers also need an overhead camera angle or document setup so students can clearly see your work surface.
Which cities in India can I work from? +
Any city with reliable internet. Our 50+ teachers work from Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Lucknow, Chandigarh, Kochi, and dozens of tier-2 and tier-3 towns. Nino is fully remote - your location does not affect hiring.
What languages do I need to know to teach at Nino? +
English fluency is mandatory across all three roles. Hindi helps with parent communication for North Indian batches. Regional language skills - Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Punjabi - are a strong plus and may unlock dedicated regional batches with higher rates.
What does the Nino hiring process look like? +
Five steps over 2-3 weeks: submit the online application, get a response within 3-5 working days, attend a 30-minute video interview with the hiring team, deliver a 20-minute sample class to real students, receive a formal offer with rate and schedule, complete 1-week paid orientation.
How does the small batch size (max 6 students) compare to school teaching? +
A typical school classroom has 30-45 students. Nino caps every batch at 6. That means each child gets roughly 5x more direct attention per minute of class time. Teachers also report less burnout, easier behaviour management, and more meaningful relationships with both students and parents.
