Tutor.com Employee Reviews

Flexible schedule but very low pay and scarce training

Revisión Publicado hace 3 años

Personally, I have found working at Tutor.com to be very anxiety-provoking. After being hired, I found that any and all initial training is unpaid. They have several manuals... The Classroom Manuel, The Tutor Manuel, etc. that you have to read on your own time. No paid training.

Easy scheduling. Minimum hours given. If you want more you have to hop on at the busy time and hope you get student or no pay. But easy company to work for. The staff is nice and so are the students. Most work is done through messages, so you don't have to worry about the way you look.

The company has raised the hourly rate for tutors less than $2/hour in 15 years. They assign micro-managing mentors who interfere with effectiveness and limit flexibility.

They are not invasive. They let you work according to your own schedule and only contact you when necessary.

They need to open their minds and embrace the 21st century. Focus on compensating tutors fairly and improving the technological platform.

Follow labor laws. Stop retaliation and discrimination.

I haven't heard anything from my mentors for over two months. I honestly don't feel like an integral member of Tutor.com and that they are taking advantage of my abilities by paying me so little. What is worst is that students are charged four times the amount I get paid, which makes no sense to me.

It's not a specific schedule. It's flexible.

There are no benefits as a part time employee, but I think the rate is competitive since we work at home and really have no costs like commuting and meals.

I've noticed something about jobs... The lower paying a job is, the more that's expected. Working as a tutor for Tutor.com is a contracted position. Tutors are not direct employees. $10 per hour turns into maybe $7 after taxes. That is extremely low pay. Extremely low for educated people.

Tutor.com is a tutoring service that is offered online, over the computer. There is no interaction really with others who work with Tutor.com. The only person you might interact with is your mentor. This is the person who essentially evaluates the quality of your tutoring.

This is really an N/A as tutors are independent contractors and virtually never interact or work together.

They did a pretty good job interviewing looking for ability

Revisión Publicado hace 2 años

The interview was great. I don't have any complaints about the interview process. To me, the more difficult part begins after you are hired. Once hired, you have only 30 days to begin online tutoring. Where is the training? Any "training" is unpaid and on your own.

Management hoards profit at the top (the fancy decorative peaks of the building) and exploits labor at the bottom (the foundation, that is). They have managed this model for a long time and have held the market almost exclusively, so the fall will be slow, but they will change or be gone.

Use a business model that would support long lasting and quality employees

again, labor law violations and constant undue criticisism

Revisión Publicado hace 7 años

A lot is expected from me when my compensation is too low. It's difficult when students take corrections personally and then give me a lower rating. The company is heavily catered to students, and there's not enough appreciation to share with all of us except for the lucky few who get the spotlight.
