Avantages

You can make your own schedule and work from home. Also, if you like tutoring, it's always rewarding to work with students.

Inconvénients

Their Classroom program is pretty janky; they launched a new version of Classroom that for some reason exists alongside the previous one, so you'll have to deal with a different UI sometimes for no reason. The new version is also extremely prone to crashing. The pay is also not great. As I understand it, it is also variable from state to state, as you'll be categorized as a part-time employee in some states and an independent contractor in others. For me, the biggest downside is the feeling of isolation from other tutors. I know that it's a remote job, but there's not really any way to communicate with your fellow tutors on the site. This is especially bad because some students using this service can be rude or even aggressive, something that I find is harder to deal with when you're isolated. The only person you'll really interact with is your Quality Specialist, who writes your reviews. I was lucky enough to have a nice and understanding QS, but I imagine that a bad one would make the experience of working here absolutely terrible.

Avantages

The students are usually nice. Work from home.

Inconvénients

There is no appreciation of employees. They give badges instead of raises. Don't be fooled by the $22 per hour posts. They do not pay that much for most tutoring. Most work is under $20/hr. The job that pays $22/hr is horrible according to most tutors. There is twice as much unpaid work involved compared with regular tutoring. This is not a job that pays a living wage. If you think you can stick out a low wage for a few years and then get a better wage from them, think again. They never give raises. The piddly 50 cents in January is not a raise. It is simply based on the minimum wage going up. It's an insult. If you think you can gain experience and then move on to another job think again. They don't give recommendations either. I hate working for this company. They have repeatedly tried (unsuccessfully) to get me to work without pay for things like training and meetings when they only pay min. wage even when they do pay. If they had their way, they would send all jobs to India, but their contract with the DOD is holding them back. This company is owned by the Chinese. Don't expect fair wages. I have to work more than 40 hours a week to get paid for 25 of them. Work-from-home jobs do not pay well, so keep that in mind when you are thinking about the benefits of working at home.
