My daughter (15F) is struggling with grade 10 math. We are located in Sk, Canada.

She is working on foundational pre-calculus, trigonometry, and algebra. She is currently struggling with linear equations graphing and linear inequalities.

She has been struggling with anxiety and poor health so she has fallen far behind in math.

I would need tutoring for a few hours a week for a few sessions a week.

Hello - I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask about this, but I'm a highschool student who loves math and science. I'm part of a few organizations that require service hours. As a result, I have been tutoring peers in my favorite subjects and I find it very fun and fulfilling, and all of the teachers I have helped tutor for say that I am good at it too. I'm not sure if I want to tutor as a full time job at any point, but I would certainly like to get to a point where I can make some money from it.

So, my question is, where can I start? Should I stick to volunteering until I graduate? Should I obtain any training or qualifications other than grades and test scores? How much should I charge? What places should I meet up with students if I am tutoring in person outside of school? Should I sign up to tutor for an organization or find students myself?

I'm sorry for the vague, open ended question. I really don't know much about this.

Im a single mom with a 7yr old incredibly brilliant little boy. He’s in 1st grade, but we had a pretty traumatic year and did not end up attending school due to moving multiple states and homelessness. I tried really hard at home through the year with minimal resources but due to me having learning disabilities and dyslexia, I’m doing a terrible job.

He’s going back to public school in the fall, we’re a bit more stable and no longer homeless. I want to have him reading and a better grasp on math by the time school starts in August- even if he has to redo the first grade over.

What do I do? Do I look for an affordable tutor? Is there a program or books or games that help? I’m so out of my league here. I just need some help, or some direction. I would love to find him a reading tutor if possible, but I don’t have any clue where to start with these things. I feel like such a failure, I’m so disappointed with myself for failing him and being so overwhelmed with it all.

How can I help him? Where do I start?

I am a recent college grad and am passionate about helping people learn. Feel free to message me, price is negotiable!

Hi All,

I've helped classmates in high school and during college was a tutor a few times, mostly just helping high school kids get their homework done, but not really actively teaching or going over concepts.

I substitute teach at a school - where I help kids with math if they need help -- Alg up to Calculus-- one of the guardians wants me to help her sister after school -- and I'm wondering if $30/hr is too low.

I think the first few sessions will be gauging what her skill level or knowledge is.
I need to find a copy of a relevant textbook for good reference...

I think there might be a lot of understanding gaps
___ I'm not sure if she needs a relesson - of each prior lesson -- or just more guided practice.

have a STEM degree-- remember some more statistics and calc - more than geometry
do remember algebra problems

What were your experiences starting a tutoring side gig?

I think the experience would be fun and helpful for me to get organized on some things
... but also in my mind -- I don't want the kid to need a lot of tutoring - -- so hopefully the goal is they get better and can self teach through researching youtube videos that lecture train content... that's kind of how I end things

I like PatrickJMT's videos a lot
And basically I do something similar to what he does...

Thanks!

Hi all!

As the title says, I'm wanting to study Sociology and Psychology for A-Levels exams following the Cambridge model. I've never done these two subjects before, so unfortunately I'm starting from scratch and having a hard time grasping even just the basics on my own. :')

So far the only place I've checked for tutors is Preply, but I wanted to check to see if anyone has any other sites or references they recommend before I commit to it. 😅 It seems like a good site but I've also seen some mixed opinions about it so I wanted to be sure.

Honestly I just want something trustworthy, reliable, and with flexible/adaptive learning styles. My hope is to have sessions twice a week for each subject, maybe 3-4 hours per session with a break halfway through, if that makes sense?

It's not rigid but just a rough idea of a schedule as this is also my first time getting a tutor for something. :') All input is welcome and appreciated!

Hi everyone,

My name is Louis. I have been tutoring French full time for over 10 years, specialising in IB French, A-Level and IGCSE. About four years ago I co-founded a small tutoring and education consulting agency, which grew well, but over time my role became more and more managerial and less focused on actual teaching. I recently made the decision to step away and go back to what I love, which is working directly with students.

The tricky part is that I cannot take clients from my previous company, so I am essentially rebuilding my independent client base from scratch. I was wondering if any of you have been in a similar situation, and how did you find new clients in a new market?

In the meantime I have relaunched my own tutoring website at www.louisibtutor.com,if you would like a free consultation to discuss how we can work together, feel free to reach out!

Any advice welcome!

Howdy, yall!

Hi! I’m a second year college student from Quebec, offering English and French tutoring.

French tutoring includes basic conversational skills, simple grammar, and writing help. English tutoring includes essay revision/editing (I can help with essay structure, clarity, and grammar.) My first language is French, but I’m fluent in both French and English.

I’m looking to tutor any students, from elementary school to college! Feel free to message me for details (pricing, tutoring location/method, etc.)

Just got accepted to medical school, and I’m excited to start tutoring!

I’m available for hire and can help with a wide range of subjects, including biology, chemistry, and physics. If you or someone you know is looking for a tutor, feel free to PM me.

Happy to work with students at different levels and help with anything from classwork to exam prep.

Hey everyone! I am an English tutor looking to help you out with all your academic needs. I have a BA in English, with a track in Writing and Rhetoric. I also hold a minor in Hospitality. I have worked with younger students (7-14 age bracket) for about 4-5 years, in various subjects. I can also speak some limited Spanish.

I am most suited to help students in the following areas:

• English Language
• Grammar and Syntax
• Reading Comprehension
• Literature Analysis
• Writing and Rhetoric
• Beginner Literacy
• Critical Thinking
• Video Game Design
• 3D Sculpting (Blender)
• Recording and Streaming (OBS)
• Basic Math
• Basic Science
• Basic Computer Skills

I have some references available upon request, and am able to teach most ages. Pricing is fair, and negotiable. I am typically available Monday - Wednesday, 8am to 9pm EST as well as Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 8am - 1pm EST. If you are not satisfied with our first session, for any reason, I will not charge you. DM me to set up a meeting over zoom!

I just wanted to put out some feelers to see if anyone out there was interested in basically making some easy money finding me work. This works great if you are in a higher price of living area since you can easily charge the rate for your area and then charge me my flat rate and keep the difference and all you need to do is handle the set up and payment.

I have 9 years experience as a tutor with a degree from Penn State in Nuclear Engineering. Basically, I graduated right during the whole Fukushima incident which seriously tanked my job prospects so pivoted into something I found i enjoyed more, helping people learn.

I can tutor functionally anything at the middle school or high school level minus the languages. For University I am confident in Calc 1, Calc 2, Chemistry 1, Physics 1 and Physics 2 but might be able to do other classes. Can likely also do SAT, ACT, and GED stuff since its all the same information.

My rate is $30 CAD (eTransfer) or $25 USD (Zelle).
