How to Apply to Cambly from Nigeria — Step by Step (2026)

Cambly is one of the easiest platforms to join as an English tutor from Nigeria. No degree, no experience, no TEFL required. Here is exactly how to apply and get accepted.

Step 1: Visit the Tutor Signup Page

Go to cambly.com/english/tutors on a laptop using Google Chrome. Click "Get Started" and create your account with email and password.

Step 2: Complete the Tech Check

Cambly will test your internet speed, camera, and microphone. You need at least 10 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload. Use a wired connection if possible — WiFi can be unreliable.

Step 3: Record Your Intro Video

Record a 1-2 minute video introducing yourself. Smile, speak clearly, and show your personality. Mention why you enjoy helping people learn English. Good lighting and a clean background help. Dress professionally but not too formal.

Step 4: Complete Your Profile

Fill in your teaching interests, languages you speak, and availability. The more availability you add, the more students can find you. Add as many time slots as possible initially.

Step 5: Wait for Approval

Cambly reviews applications and approves based on demand. This can take 24 hours to a few weeks. If you have not heard back after 2 weeks, submit a support ticket asking for an update.

Tips for Getting Accepted Faster

Record a high-quality intro video (good lighting, clear audio). Be enthusiastic and natural — not scripted. Show that you are patient and friendly. Mention any experience with different cultures or languages.
