When my son wanted to be home schooled and go with IGCSE syllabus two months ago, I started looking for online teachers for Mathematics and sciences. This guy is the first one who approached us. He quoted a very high price and as I did not know the average hourly pay for such teaching I agreed. He insisted on paying right away and kept calling till I paid ( he could not wait till I was able to add him as a beneficiary in my online banking app). The moment he got the money, he stopped responding to me. No class no communication. He responded after 4 days and said he was sick. Later when he took the first class, he was trying to manage giving the same time to multiple students by putting one in mute while speaking with another. He was a total failure as a teacher. His behavior was more like a road side namkeen seller rather than a teacher. When I asked him to pay back the money, he said he would send in a day or two. It has been two months now but every time he says he would pay the next day. I approached the police in his home town and they asked me to complain in cyber crimes division. I hardly get time with my work and with children and hope this doesn't end up wasting so much time for a such a small issue. He sounded like a seasoned criminal, having experience in bluffing and begging for more and more time. I don't know what the issue is once he agreed that he would send the money back. Highly avoidable. Don't even try to make a phone call.
