How does the teacher application process work?

Follow these five steps to become an italki teacher:

1. Submit your application
   Apply at teach.italki.com using a computer or laptop. Applications cannot be submitted on a phone or through the italki app.
2. Wait for the review result
   We will notify you of the decision within 30 business days.
3. Verify your identity
   If your application is approved, upload your identity document and complete the verification process. See How to pass ID verification.
4. Complete the tutorials and quizzes
   Finish all required onboarding tutorials and pass the related quizzes.
5. Set up your teacher account
   Complete your account and profile setup to start teaching on italki.

Please complete Steps 3–5 within 30 calendar days of receiving your approval email. If onboarding is not completed within this period, your application will expire, and you will need to submit a new application if you still wish to become a teacher.
