- Profile Picture is not professional-looking. It doesn't have to be formal or business-like, but it does have to follow our guidelines.
- No introduction video, the image or sound quality is low and cannot be clearly viewed.
- The Written Introduction needs more information or has spelling/grammar mistakes in the target language(s).
- Something in your profile advertises or promotes other services. We ask that you respect the italki platform and not promote other services.
- Your profile includes personal contact information. On italki, you work for yourself, but don't give out your personal contact information. Students will be able to contact you through italki messages. This is to protect your privacy.
- You do not meet the minimum age requirement of 18 years old
- The language that the applicant has applied to teach is currently closed. (see open language list here)
