Pros

Always had students and plenty of hours

Cons

Paying tutors 20% of what the company charges is absurd and should be illegal. The average price per hour is 110$ and starting salary is 20$/hr for a tutor

Pros

StudyPoint offers a great curriculum that works, and trains tutors well. You set your own hours and territory, and they find you families to work for. The supports they offer to tutors are excellent, including a Program Manager who always has your back and an experienced tutor to answer questions you have when you're first starting out. Also, if you're qualified to tutor more than SAT and ACT prep, you get the opportunity to tutor other things -- which gives you a nice variety of tutoring experiences. Most of the families are excellent to work for. If you arrive prepared and are professional, they really appreciate you. Also, the company is very good to its employees. The work culture is excellent.

Cons

No pay for prep time. This is hardest when you're first starting as a tutor, because you have to invest a lot of time to learn the curriculum. It improves the longer you stay with the company, but every time the SAT or ACT changes, you have a lot of prep to do all over again.

Thank you so much for sharing your positive experience. Our Program Managers are the best in the business, as are our veteran tutor mentors. We have discussed at length how to help our team of tutors - especially tutors new to our curricula - feel confident going into each lesson. Our paid training is a benefit many other companies don't have. But that doesn't change the fact that prep time for each lesson can add up. I will work with our Academics Team on this more. Thanks for the input. -Greg Co-Founder & President

Pros

I have a steady flow of students, and I have a manager to turn to when I have a question about curriculum, or about a student or parents. I don't have to worry about finding my next client or taking payment they do that all for me, and provide a curriculum manual for every session so there is very little prework on my part

Cons

Driving in snowy Chicago is sometimes a drag but that would be the same for every tutoring gig!
