Pros

Flexible working hours, some protections for tutors against abusive customers, dedicated mentor who checks in regularly, prompt responses from tech and other support teams.

Cons

The employer is rather secretive about tutors' pay. Hourly rate varies by subject but you won't find out your subject's starting rate until you've been offered the job. Your actual minimum pay (when you are scheduled and online but not in a session) is the federal minimum of $7.25/hr. I was told this once in my offer email, but never in any documents I had to sign. Then, in my billing section, while they clearly post my hourly rate ($13.50) next to my completed session minutes, the same section next to my schedule wait time is blank.

Pros

Available to tutor whenever you want

Cons

Only get paid for either time in sessions, (which is short), or time scheduled in advance, which if you are not the first person to do is very difficult, and if you are a new tutor is essentially impossible to do as scheduling opens up later for new people.

Pros

Flexibility, wide-range of assignments and students, fantastic IT support!

Cons

This is a low-paying part-time gig for teachers, retirees, and grad students. Don't expect to be able to afford to eat.
