Reviews of Wyzant by tutors in your community
I have been a tutor with WyzAnt for a few months now. I am enjoying regular inquiries and it's a great way of getting new students. It's a great agency, that is efficient at passing on inquiries and paying the tutors.
It's a lot of fun to share knowledge and skills that I have worked hard to gain. It's always a delight when my cell phone buzzes with a text message alerting me that there's a potential student in Champaign-Urbana.
My experience with WyzAnt has been very positive so far. WyzAnt is an excellent organization and they make it very simple for students to find tutors or vice-versa. The biggest problem with the experience so far has not been their fault; namely, that students will post an ad for help and never respond again. That is outside their control, of course, but other than that it has been a very positive experience.
Working with WyzAnt has been very easy. That is the best word to describe it. They are really on top of things. Everything is happening in the way it was explained. The students I've gotten have been great, reliable clients who are very easy to work with, and payment always occurs on time, and is very easy to maintain. Also, if there is any question, the reps at WyzAnt are very easy to reach and knowledgeable. Tutoring under this service has been a great experience.
Increased Demand Due to Wide Network
The demand for my tutorial services has never been as good as this! Wyzant's access to a wide network connects me, the tutor, to job prospects within the Wyzant website, thus keeping demand for my services at an all time HIGH! Clients are generally honorable and respect terms at the get go. As a tutor, I keep to the one-hour session limit in order to reach objectives efficiently and quickly.
My experience with WyzAnt is very positive. The students that I have worked with are a mixed group, of course. Most students can get back into focus and others need more time to become better students again. It is usually a student that gets overwhelmed with school and needs to get a restart that needs some tutoring. After a restart most students get serious and then no longer need a lot of help. This increase in activity directed at school and school problems causes a wonderful new beginning and a much better student.
Wyzant has been a great help in increasing my number of students. The system works very well and is painless. Between finding students through Wyzant on our own by searching for local potential clients who are looking for tutoring services such as those we can provide, and through being directly contacted by those parents who find our profiles and think we'd be a good fit, Wyzant allows us two great avenues for adding to our student roster. Also, we do not need to deal with the financial end of things, as Wyzant takes care of all payment issues. The tests we take to qualify to tutor specific subjects are well-grounded, and fun for those of us who actually enjoy taking tests. Plus the fact we can work with Wyzant along with whatever other jobs and/or tutoring we have, and we can set our own schedules regarding availability and how far we are willing to drive, makes this a perfect situation for anyone who enjoys working one-on-one with students and essentially wants to be his or her own 'boss'.
Bookkeeping is easy
The best part about being involved with Wyzant is that all I have to do is enter my hours after I tutor and Wyzant does the collection and sends me payment. One of the worst things about tutoring is collecting for lessons. A tutor has his or her head on creatively presenting the material. It is an entirely different part of the brain, apparently, that focuses on charging for a lesson and collecting money. I don't want to negotiate a fee, keep track of amounts owed, play the tough guy, or accept payment. Wyzant allows me to stay fully in the role of helpful teacher. Thanks.
I am very pleased with how WyzAnt finds students for me. They do all the work. All I have to do is teach, which I know best. I like the layout (easy instructions). I highly recommend this WyzAnt for people that need a little extra cash and enjoy one on one tutoring.
I have found the WyzAnt website very easy to navigate! Being a beginning member, I appreciate the rapid response time from the WyzAnt team. Although this time of year is slow, I have not gained any students yet. However, through utilizing the various marketing ideas, I feel confident that I will soon gain students. Thank you WyzAnt! Keep up the good work!
