Wyzant Does Not Allow Me To Apply for Qualified Jobs
To Whom It May Concern,
My name is Donovan M. I am approved by Wyzant to teach online as well as by traveling. I am approved in Spanish, Geography, U.S. History, TOEFL, and Algebra 1.
I recently tried to apply for a Spanish tutoring job that was available. However, the title was grey instead of blue, so it did not allow me to apply for it. It also did not say I was not qualified on top.
Why is it that Wyzant Does not allow me to apply for jobs in the 5 subjects that I am qualified for; even when I always get emails about student opportunities, including ones that no one has applied for yet?
Please let me know. My email address is [email protected]
Sincerely
Donovan M.

I talked to a representative from Wyzant and they told me that after you finish registration, their team has to review and approve your application before jobs will start showing up as blue for you. Hope that helps everyone!

Did they mention how long it takes to approve your application?12/09/20

It's only supposed to take a week and the representative I spoke to when I wrote my original answer told me that I'd get approved in the next few days, but it actually took me 14 days from starting my account to becoming approved.12/09/20

Has anyone had success applying and getting approved so that they can apply for jobs and begin teaching? Do we need to submit background checks? Which other steps need to be completed for the process to begin?09/08/25
Inactive Tutor answered 09/27/20
This is the same for me! I am trying to get started, but it doesn't even give me the pop up that I'm not qualified (even though I am). I'm pretty sure everything on my profile is done and correct- has anyone figured this out yet?

This is happening to me as well. I keep taking other quizzes to see if I can find jobs in that subject but even when I am verified for all of mine the title still appear grey and wont let me click it.

Anyone know why I am seeing this message? I receive this message at the top of my screen when I clicked on an in person job that is for an appoved and active subject- You are not able to apply for this job at this time.
Thank you

I don't know why they do this. They don't let me apply to jobs either.
Inactive Tutor answered 06/07/23
I am also qualified for many subjects and it’s been almost a month but all jobs still appear as greyed out. I have no idea what else I can possibly do and it’s quite frustrating.
Inactive Tutor answered 02/04/23
Same issue here... I have PhD degree with +10 years teaching experience, but Wazant told me I am not qualified.
Inactive Tutor answered 07/29/22
I am also having the same issue, I've taken my qualifications and have waited for about 2 weeks now and it will say I am qualified but it will not provide a link.
Inactive Tutor answered 10/16/20
I am having the same issue!
Inactive Tutor answered 08/29/20
I though "wyzant" is just for math?
Inactive Tutor
Wyzant is a tutoring service for a wide variety of subjects. There are language tutors, math tutors, I think even instrument tutors here. :)08/29/20
