DO NOT WORK HERE!

Pros

None. There are no pros. Oh wait... I have to write 20 words here? Let me start counting... I guess this is one of the few online companies that will actually hire current college students (and that you don't necessarily need a degree yet). Either way, they're paying peanuts. Do this if you absolutely don't have anything better to do with your spare time.

Cons

Prospective employees should take all of the cons listed here seriously. Somebody should create a forum where the tutors can discuss. But of course, they're just afraid that the tutors will unionize. Or collectively agree to go off and start off their own online tutoring, where quality tutoring will actually take place. Only a whopping 5% (or close to that) of students actually pay to use this. There's an obvious reason for this - the service isn't worth 38 bucks an hour. It's not even worth 10 bucks an hour. The rest is of the tab is, yes, paid by our tax dollars. Seriously, people *should* be filing complaints to their local libraries that their tax dollars are being wasted on this scam. It's ludicrous for our tax dollars to be going to a for-profit company like this one.

Pros

-It has flexible hours - work from home - all you need is an internet connection and a computer

Cons

- low pay, they do not make it easy to get promoted to tutor II or tutor III - raise is only $1 which is insulting, and they will make it hard for you to get that when you ask for it. - Management will find any flaws in your sessions even if you have almost 100% ratings from the students - No benefits of any kind
