StudyPoint reviews

There's not much support. Once you're up and running you're basically on your own. The pay is very low when you consider how much time you have to put in for travel, prep, administrative duties. All things considered, you're probably not making more than $15 per hour.

-Travel. Students who live within 30 minutes can still take almost an hour to get to them based on their lesson time and traffic. Not being compensated for this time, is a downer. It means more time away from my family. -Parent expectations. I've had a few parents recently that expect to have a conversation after every session, some of these run 15+ minutes. Or they're calling and emailing me a couple times a week. I'm not compensated for that time. -Student Expectations: Students seem to not being doing the homework on time more and more lately. I've had a few students who feel that I should be able to help them improve their scores, but do nothing during the week we're not meeting to get better. I even send links to flashcards so they can work on it a few minutes a day. -Raises: Getting a raise once a year is okay, but I think every six months if you work a minimum number of hours would be more fair. It encourages tutoring, but also gives the tutor a reason to keep doing it.
