HOW MUCH WILL I ACTUALLY EARN?

From RareJob, that is.


Upon opening the RareJob top page, you immediately see this quote:



Earn as much as P12,000-P17,000 monthly by teaching English to Japanese ONLINE!
That is possibly how much your salary will be, that is if you work a substantial amount of hours. In RareJob, you earn every 25 minutes as long as a student booked you in that particular slot. Most of the time, your student is online and you have to conduct a 25-minute lesson. But in some instances, he/she might be offline and TA-DA! You earn just by sitting and trying to reach him/her for 10 minutes. The point is you have to work longer hours if you would want to earn more. 
Starting salary in RareJob is Php90/hr. So if you work for 5 hours in one night, that means you earn Php450/night, if all your classes are booked.
But what's good about RareJob is that you can increase your salary after working a particular number of hours (say, after 150 hours).
During my time, our starting salary was Php120/hr (Php600/night). After accumulating 150 hours of booked slots, it increased to Php140/hr (Php700/night). And then after another 150 hours, it became Php150/hr (Php750/night)--and that's pretty much the ceiling, I guess.
In RareJob, you earn what you work for. And it's good to plan ahead. 
For example, for this month of January 2011, if you plan to work for 25 nights (for 5 hours) and your rate is Php90/hr...
       rate          time (hr)         salary (/night)        90       x        5        =          450
   salary (/night)    no. of days you work      TOTAL          450           x            25               Php11,250*
*subject to 2% withholding tax so your total will be Php11,025. 
Not bad for this excludes 6 more hours of teaching during the weekends ;) 
So if you plan you have a shopping spree next month, just work longer hours this month. Imagine earning that much in just your pajamas while lounging in your couch/bed.
