Business Outlook

Pros

You can do the work online from home or any other place. You can teach nice students. Flexible working hours.

Cons

Low salary. Parents or students pay 30 euro for a 50 mintues lesson, you will get 13 euro gross. After paying taxes you will be left with about 8 euro nett per lesson. The first lesson is a trial lesson of 30 minutes. You will get 4 euros gross. If the student decides to continue with GoStudent, you get another 4,50 euros gross for that trial lesson, so 8,50 euro gross in total. A missed trial lesson results in a fine of 25 euro gross. A missed regular lesson results in a fine of 15 euro gross.
