Many locations, but management is rude and unresponsive - werkgeversreview Tutor bij Learning Labs Tuition

ive been working at southall for nearly a year. everyone is quite nice and is of a similar age group so its easy to talk to people and you can tell everyone puts effort into their work. its nice that the students get books so you can just teach a topic from there without having to pull up extra resources, but you can also email for printing -zero hour contract which works if youre a student so hours are flexible to you but it can be hard to get shifts

-you do a lot to get paid very little. everyones on minimum wage except for people higher up but even then its probs not even that much of a difference lmao -the contract is VERY sketchy, very red flag in my opinion. you are "self employed" rather than an employee so they pay less tax as a company but also means you get less rights as a worker, theres no holiday or sick pay or any real benefits -group sessions and 1-1 sessions get paid the same amount which is silly -theres no training when it comes to handling those with learning disabilities and youre just expected to deal with it despite them advertising training -whoever does the pay is genuinely terrible at their job because they constantly miss out on several hours and means you could be getting paid up to £100 less and they roll it onto the next month but even then it can sometimes not be fixed so it rolls on for agesss -if youre older its prob harder to get a shift because they give shifts more to younger workers so they pay them less -good if you want progression into education also looks good on cv

The other tutors were great, no complaints, and my classroom managers were amazing and supportive aswell since we were all around the same age.

They pay based on 'year group', so year 13's who are 18 get paid £7.50, not £10, which I find off-putting. There are no set hours. Right before I left, they became very weird about 'active learning,' as in tutors had to stand up to teach, not because it helped, but because it "looked better," which was more of an annoyance rather than a help for the students. They would tell tutors diff things about what to do, which would be confusing, and sometimes it felt a bit passive-aggressive - the difference between branches is astounding, some are very strict and rigid, and others don't even care if you wear the right uniform. I did see a bit of favouritism, but honestly, I didn't get paid enough to care. I would see some tutors with a group of 7 kids struggling to manage. I left after around 4 months of consistently working there since it made my weekends a bit miserable, and I would rather not do that. I think it's an alright first job for experience, and it wasn't all bad, more of a 30:70 ratio.
