Block student
Hello everyone! I'm in a dilemma where I believe blocking the student is the best option, but I'd like to know how student blocking works on Preply (I've never blocked a student before)
When I started on Preply about two months ago, I charged $5 per lesson, and that's what helped me get a lot of students in the beginning. However, nowadays, thankfully, I have students who pay up to $30
And at that time I had a trial lesson with a student who said she was going to take lessons with me, but I never saw her again. And now, in this last week, she started scheduling lessons with me at times when I don't usually teach, and worst of all, for $5 🫠
Her goal is to speak English for a US nursing visa interview and pass the test. I reviewed the necessary material and everything to create a good lesson plan for her to achieve this goal. And I realized that it's not worth it for me to do this for 5 dollars
But at the same time, I don't want to raise the price because I believe she wouldn't accept it, and also I don't want to teach her (nothing against her, she's very polite and nice to me). The problem is my schedule.
So, since she hasn't left any reviews on my profile yet, I don't think I'll have any problems if I block her, right? But how does it work? Will she know I blocked her? Will my Preply profile receive any warnings?
