This community allows valuable tutors to avoid the hassle of finding students, especially because tutors also have full-time jobs or are full-time students. I found this site to be helpful with all the updates. It is also very user friendly and I felt safe putting my information on the website.

I have been a tutor with Wyzant for a few months now and I am very impressed with this business! Wyzant offers so much to both the tutors and to the students who are looking for tutoring, whether it be for yoga or swimming or pre-algebra and biology, Wyzant has professional and very educated tutors.
Wyzant's policies are all very fair - again, to the tutors and to the students. Students are not charged until after their sessions and they have to be happy and satisfied with their sessions. Tutors are paid twice a month like a regular paid job and the checks are timely and accurate. Additionally, the info@wyzant.com email address offers almost instant answers and explanations; the website's FAQ is also an excellent resource for any questions for students and tutors.
I am impressed with the amount and types of students that Wyzant attracts and the emails and inquiries that come my way.
Thank you Wyzant!!
Sincerely,
Anjali K

WyzAnt has been a very rewarding experience for me. I've helped students prepare for anything from an entrance examination to weekly homework to standardized test. The wide range of topics (at least in mathematics) that bring students and those who care about them to WyzAnt is also refreshing. It offers the ability for tutors to conquer different challenges from session to session.
I would say that the only thing that I would change is the geographical restrictions, but I understand the reasoning behind them. It provides a more personal feeling to meet face-to-face with a tutor for which driving more than 40 miles can be cumbersome. However, there are certainly some tutoring tasks (at least in mathematics) that can more easily be addressed via email or over the phone. In these cases, for instance, fact checking a mathematical proof or reviewing a short concept. With repeat clients I tend to throw these short conversations in for free, though this can add up. I imagine this could be a new source of revenue for WyzAnt to offer online tutoring help (though conceivably using a different pricing system).
Overall, however, my experience has been enriching for me and my students.
