      Tutor: Improving, but more room for improvement

      Tutor: academic and sat/act
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Program Managers -Flexibility -Tutoring Materials -Reputation It is mostly a great job. I love working with students and this gives me the opportunity to do just that.

      Cons

      -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.

      Disappointed in lack of communication

      Pros

      Great students, materials, and opportunity to set a somewhat flexible schedule. Great part-time- very part-time opportunity.

      Cons

      Uncommunicative area managers, families can derail your career if they misread or read into something you've said and post negative feedback. You are basically left on your own to figure it out after the training and if you don't -they will ditch you.

      Well run company with some glaring downsides

      Tutor

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Solid organization and a fair amount of work available. Friendly managers and ok materials.

      Cons

      For this field, the pay stinks. in addition they do not pay for travel, which would be fine with a high hourly, but that is not the case. They also do periodic overhauls of the study materials, which frequently have more mistakes post-overhaul. The managers don't seem to have as much test prep experience as the tutors.

      I appreciate your thoughts. We are one of the few tutoring organizations that has a full-time curriculum development team, and I am proud of the great work they did recently on our revamped program for the New SAT. As a new program, there are always some edits that need to be done after the first printing, and we are working to get those done quickly. Our pay rates are competitive with our peers. In each city we serve, our tutor recruiters identify the 4-5 companies similar to ours - meaning tutors are employees not contractors, full-time customer service is offered, and curricula are provided - and we pay the same or a little more. Now, tutors can certainly make more money working on their own, but then you have to get your own clients, deal with billing, and find over-the-counter curricula that often lack online resources. We hope you'll stay with us and enjoy the main goal we share of helping kids create opportunities for themselves!! Best, Greg President & Co-Founder
