1. About Kodland 👨‍💻👩‍💻

Kodland is an international online school helping kids aged 8–17 build real digital skills — Python, Roblox, Minecraft, Digital Creativity, and more. We work with students and families across the US, Europe, the UK, CIS, Latin America, MENA, and beyond, all through live 1:1 or small-group Zoom classes with a project-based approach.

Our mission: help kids become confident, curious thinkers who are comfortable with technology and problem-solving.

2. A Day in the Life of a TCM 🎬

Curious what this actually looks like day to day? This short video shows a typical TCM schedule, how a real trial lesson unfolds, and what the conversation with parents feels like.
👉 Watch it before applying — it's the fastest way to know if this role fits your lifestyle.

3. What You'll Actually Be Doing 🎧

Each trial lesson, you'll:

• Meet the child and at least one parent on Zoom

• Build rapport and ask the right questions to understand the child's background, interests, and goals

• Lead a short hands-on activity (simple coding, game logic, or digital task) using ready-made materials

• Recommend the best-fit program based on what you observe

• Answer questions, address concerns, and guide the family to a clear decision

This role blends three skill sets:

🎓 Teaching — explaining clearly and keeping kids engaged
🗣 Communication — listening well and adapting to each family
💼 Sales — showing value and confidently closing when it's a good fit

This isn't a scripted call-center job. You'll get structure and materials, but you're expected to think on your feet and lead the conversation.

4. Schedule & Availability 🕒

• Weekdays: mainly 14:00–21:00 UK time

• Weekends: mainly 11:00–18:00 UK time

• 5 days/week, with 1 weekday off + 1 weekend day off

Exact hours are negotiable, but we need consistent weekly availability so we can plan ahead and keep families from waiting.

5. Pay & Earning Potential 💶

Independent contractor role, paid twice a month, built on two parts:

• Base pay: €6 per completed trial (up to €7.50 based on your grade)

•
Bonus: 5–10% of your monthly sales — the better your conversion rate, the higher your %

📌 Admin hours are paid at the same rate as trial classes.

What that looks like in real numbers (based on internal averages, part-time):

• 🌱 New to the role: ~€700/month

• 📈 Steady performers: €1,100+/month

• 🏆 Top performers: up to €1,900/month

You'll get regular feedback, coaching, and webinars to help you grow — income increases with skill, consistency, and effort, but it's a real, achievable path even part-time.

• You genuinely enjoy talking with both kids and parents

• Experience in sales, customer service, customer success, tutoring, or coaching

• Experience working with kids and/or parents

How this was produced

Highlights are found by rule, not by a model: each one is a phrase matched at a known position, and every note is a template we wrote. The two scores come from a typed-decision model (Jev) that reads the listing against the official role definition and real listings for the same role, and returns probabilities rather than prose — it never writes any of the words on this page, and never chooses what to highlight.

Deterministic penalty applied to the HR score: 4 points (from 80 before penalties). Reviewed 25 Sep 2026.
