On their site they list the following times as the most requested time periods in Beijing time: Monday - Friday 6-10pm, and Saturday - Sunday 9am-10pm. VIPKID does not require teachers to work full shifts; but having availability during the times mentioned above could ensure a higher possibility of being booked by students.
