Pros
Fair and competitive pay. Flexible scheduling allowing opportunities to tutor in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Policy-based support protecting tutors from last-minute cancellations. Opportunities to work in the summer; a rarity in the education field. Students have been screened ensuring that there is compatibility for a long-term basis. While tutoring takes place in decentralized locations, a setting which is conducive for learning exists. Proprietary material such as a diagnostic placement test as well as material for advanced level students exists.
Kontras
Balancing contract work with part-time and full-time school and work obligations can be challenging. Student's locations aren't always easy to find or easily accessible.
