Pluspunten
None, absolutely none other than a sense of accomplishment when you help a student who is actually asking for help
Minpunten
Literally everything. Horrible pay. Completely unrealistic expectations. Penalized for everything. They do not care about students at all. They make you fill out this stupid feedback form that takes so much time but they only give you 30 max to read essays and fill out the form. Comments on the essays are limited to "check out ___ section of the feedback form for more details." You get penalized for going even 1 min over their "average session time." It is nearly impossible to get anyone on the phone and my "mentor" never responded to my emails. Often times I had to end sessions before I felt like I actually helped a student just to meet the time limit. They have ridiculous rules in their contract. I got fired because I was struggling with a 5th grader on sharing a google doc because their classroom software is absolute garbage and breaks all the time. I offered my email so they could share access to the google doc after trying several other methods, all of which were in the transcript. Didn't even end up using my email because I talked them through downloading it as a Word document. Then randomly a week later they email me saying they reviewed my account and when I finally got them on the phone they just told me I'm fired for providing my email that wasn't even used. I didn't even get to defend myself. Then on the email that told me I was fired they didn't even have the courtesy to put my name. It literally said "Hi _______." All the reviews I got from students were excellent and several even made me their favorite tutor. I enjoyed helping students but this company is not the way to do it. Honestly I don't know how they stay in business. You can't even find the names or emails of other tutors. The pay is $10/hour for almost every subject even though they tell you some bull about how it varies from subject to subject. The qualification tests are a joke because you easily have the time to just look up the answers so there are probably hundreds of unqualified tutors on there. Just look up some student reviews and you'll see. The scheduling makes no sense because you can set any hours you want but they tell you there are rules to scheduling but none of them are enforced until it favors them. This is a scam of a company and you should avoid it like the plague.
