Does not pay well!

Math tutor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

If you have a main job and are looking for some extra pay on the side, this might be a good option for you.

Cons

Many tutoring sessions will take place at private residences, which requires you to drive there. You are not compensated for gas. When you get to a student's house, they may have forgotten about tutoring, in which case you will not get paid at all for that session. The hours are extremely limited which makes the cost of driving impact the job much more than normal, and the pay is abysmal considering the requirements to be employed there. Finally, the method they use to teach students does not actually target the areas that the students need help in, so it's not particularly effective.

Pros

Great way to make a difference and help kids learn and gain confidence in their abilities.

Cons

Terrible hours and get sent home if kids don’t show sometimes even though Sylvan gets paid. Kids are allowed to be there while sick instead of being kept home.
