Pros

AJ Tutoring has a fantastic training program, offers flexible hours, and is truly committed to supporting its team members. If you are dedicated to the craft of teaching there is ample opportunity for career advancement. Over the past several years, AJ tutoring has grown quickly, but through this expansion the company and its team has remained committed to providing an excellent professional tutoring service. The company culture is fun and stresses learning, excellence and service above all else. My favorite parts of the job are collaborating with fellow educators, taking on new responsibilities, and learning how to become a great educator.

Cons

Scheduling tutoring lessons with students can be difficult. The work environment can be fast-paced at times, but this also keeps the job exciting. Working at multiple location can be a challenge.

Pros

Their SAT tutor training is fantastic, and the other tutors are all fun, interesting people. You generally don't spend that much uncompensated time doing administrative things. The owners and higher-ups will handle tricky or difficult parent interactions with you, or coach you on what to do, which is really helpful.

Cons

I worked here as an academic tutor rather than an SAT tutor, which was a very sink-or-swim situation. I, unfortunately, sank - they assigned me to tutor subjects somewhat outside of my area of expertise, promised training, and then didn't actually train me before giving me students. Retention and promotion are based almost entirely on student evaluations, and I understandably got a few bad ones at the beginning, which pretty much ruled out any advancement - they have enough tutors in the pipeline that they don't really need to give second chances. They gave me a couple more students over the course of an academic year, then cut me loose.
