Students Are Finding Me on WyzAnt
I have not been registered with WyzAnt for a super long time and didn't know what to expect in the way of communication from students or WyzAnt. I am thrilled to be notified by WyzAnt when there is a student in my area that I might be interested in working with. This automatic notification makes it so easy to see if their inquiry matches my tutoring qualifications. I have sent questions to WyzAnt and received a prompt and personal response. It's nice to know there are real people reading and monitoring activity. My correspondence with students has been equally easy. I see their email, zip code location and am free to respond if appropriate. The entire process is easy, safe and secure. So far my tutoring experiences have been absolutely wonderful. Motivated students seeking my assistance and I am equally motivated to provide the services they need. WyzAnt has been a win-win for both my students and me! Thanks WyzAnt, you do it right!
A New Adventure in Teaching
I joined WyzAnt last summer and left my comfort zone and started working with a Chinese woman helping her speak English and getting her accustomed to American life. It was a new endeavor for me and I really enjoyed it! Then when school started, I took on students I am used to teaching and it has worked very well. I appreciate the way we can look over job requests and find ones that we want to apply for. There have been disappointments when I haven't been selected, but that's all part of the experience and I've enjoyed working with WyzAnt very much. I will add that taking the tests have been really fun... particularly when I pass something I wasn't sure of! I would encourage anyone wanting to teach to give WyzAnt a try!
I signed up with WyzAnt last July. WyzAnt claimed they could provide me with enough business to eventually keep me busy full time. I thought that was just a bunch of puffery, and signed up with a number of other tutoring outfits in order to keep busy. From the beginning, I noticed that 90% of all the inquiries I got came through WyzAnt. Many of the WyzAnt inquiries were from serious tutoring prospects; none of the other outfits ever provided me with any of those. Within a couple of months, I was tutoring full time, and I have been doing that ever since. Every student (except for a few children of friends and acquaintances) has come through WyzAnt. WyzAnt staff has been outstanding to work with. They have answered every question promptly, and have done everything they can to make my job easier. Their system is as foolproof as any system can be. I just do my tutoring, submit my reports, and get a check twice a month. I'm happy, and my students and their parents are happy. If you want to be a tutor, there's no better outfit to work with than WyzAnt.
With WyzAnt the business side of tutoring is taken care of and allows me to do what I love and do best, help students. Free lance tutoring is difficult. How do you get your name out? How do you find students? What if students want payment options? WyzAnt solves those and almost any other logistical road-block to tutoring that I can think of. Reporting is easy and the payment is prompt. For me this relationship has been a huge win and I cannot recommend WyzAnt more highly.
I really like using your business. There are couple of reasons why. First of all, I like how your website handles the money. Second, I like the way you protect my future students and I from not revealing too much information. When I used to use my personal email to exchange information with my students, it was a hassle! They wanted to have personal information from me, and I was not comfortable with meeting anybody online. Wyzant helped me to solve all the problems, I really do not have to worry about anything, but what to teach. I am glad I found your business so that I can just concentrate on teaching and not marketing and finance! Thank you so much for your help.
WyzAnt – the wise way of tutoring.
WyzAnt proved itself to be the best tutoring website in the country! I am from Europe and have a pretty wide perspective on tutoring markets. I have had profiles at other tutoring sites, but none of them has worked as well as WyzAnt. That’s why I love working with them and feel comfortable recommending them to (literally) everybody who is willing to listen! I have sent many invitations to people interested in tutoring and to my outside students because I fully believe in what I am recommending! I feel proud to be a tutor at WyzAnt. They give me the great opportunity to dedicate my time to the profession I love. The site is user friendly; It provides a huge tutor/student market; Organizes payments in a very reliable manner. And one thing that often could be a deal breaker with any other sites, no matter in what business: WyzAnt representatives always answer the phone! Users can always rely on human connection and it helps both tutors and students tremendously! These are my main reasons why WyzAnt has deserved my trust from the very beginning.
I am very impressed with the professionalism that WyzAnt provides to not only their tutors, but also to their students. WyzAnt offers a first class tutoring service that is recognized in our community.
I was apprehensive the first time I went to tutor for a WyzAnt student. Would it be a good experience? Would the student want to learn? Would the parents be clear with their expectations? It was a GREAT experience. Through email and phone calls everything was set up before I went for the first session. I have had a lot of fun watching my student improve her reading and phonics skills. When parents and students contact WyzAnt, they want the student to learn. The students are not looking for the easy way out. They actively participate in the learning process. This has been an easy and effective way to find students to help. I am trying to get the word out for parents/students to contact WyzAnt since there are many excellent tutors listed on the site. I would also like for other tutors to realize this company is easy to work with and have taken the money detail out of tutoring. You just show up and tutor. WyzAnt makes sure the clients have paid, and therefore you will get paid. Thanks WyzAnt for a good experience and I hope to work with more students found through WyzAnt.
I have greatly enjoyed my experience and learned while tutoring with WyzAnt. The students have been tremendous and my range of subjects has increased over time, thus improving my marketability. Some of the students have been located very close to my house (< four miles) improving my daily productivity. The customer service/technical service people at WyzAnt do a tremendous job of addressing specific issues in a timely fashion. The flexibility of the system has been very helpful.
Very happy with this service
I have tried other tutoring companies before, as well as, have used a tutoring company in the past once to prepare for a final exam. After using a tutor myself and paying for two hours of absolutely no help at all, I always make sure that my clients will never feel that way. This company is the most user friendly tutoring service I have found yet. I am surprised how many students I was able to find, and how many actually contacted me. Great work!
Great Two Years as a WyzAnt Tutor
I signed up to be a WyzAnt tutor in 2009 and have tutored 400+ hours since then. I have found the WyzAnt team in Chicago to be both professional and innovative. Half of the students that I tutor, mostly for high school math, physics, SAT and ACT come to me through WyzAnt. I do not hesitate to tell parents to submit their billing information so we can begin our lessons since WyzAnt is an honest and legitimate business. Even though I tutor most of my students in my home office, WyzAnt has never given me trouble for not tutoring them in their own homes (I give my students a choice). Several months ago I was contacted by WyzAnt's VP of Marketing who asked me not to include my personal email and Web site in my correspondence to my students. I understand why WyzAnt would request this I think it makes good business sense. This issue resolved quickly and professionally. I would highly recommend using WyzAnt to parents, students and tutors.
Great service
Working with WyzAnt has been an overwhelmingly positive experience for me. I tried making it on my own as a tutor for a while, but was never able to build up a stable clientele. WyzAnt takes care of all the behind the scenes work, allowing me to focus on what I do best. They really earn their keep. I just recently passed the 400+ hour mark with them and couldn't be happier. Whenever I have had issues or questions, they have always been quick to respond and quick to resolve them to my satisfaction. Their staff is friendly and helpful, and I know the students I work with are really happy with the service as well. Thanks guys!
I can't even begin to describe how elated I am to be a part of the Wyzant Community. To be honest with you, I simply stumbled onto the website one day, and I thought, "Hey, I'm a good teacher and I just want to help others." Wyzant provides the perfect vehicle for exactly that. I've wanted to be a tutor for a long time, but I didn't know how to get involved. Wyzant is perfect for those who want to help others without having to do the legwork to find students. The process was simple, just fill out the information that you should know by heart anyways. Within a few days you're set to go. The certifiable tests are great as well, they test your overall knowledge of the subject without requiring you to be perfect. I'm so happy with this website that I've told all my friends and family about it. I highly recommend you join this site if you love to help people and make money in the process. Wyzant takes all the politics, potential conflicts, and work out of the way, so that you as the tutor can just concentrate on teaching your students. It doesn't get any easier than this! I wish I knew about Wyzant when I was in school. Thank You Wyzant for this amazing opportunity. Regards, Deepak K
At the beginning I was quite cautious - I had never worked with WyzAnt before although I have two dozen years of teaching and tutoring experience. WyzAnt has an amazingly well-organized and user-friendly website. Another good surprise was how fast and easy it was to receive the first payment. And finally, the best part: my student looks quite happy with her classes - thanks, WyzAnt!
I believe that WyzAnt does a terrific job of connecting people that need tutoring with the appropriate tutors. The tutors' self-descriptions create a level of comfort for the student or student's family. This is essential in this day and age. I have taught corporate level classes in creating a harassment-free work environment and I know that people need to be cautious about who they allow into their homes, around their children, and around themselves. I have gotten the most wonderful students, and am thankful for the opportunity to help them become the star students they were born to be!
Great lead generation system
Since I joined WyzAnt over 2 months ago, the number of qualified leads increase every day. I really enjoyed tutoring my students and witness their improvement. One on one tutoring indeed pays off for students looking a way to really understand concepts, specially with subjects such as Math.
