Pros

Working for AJ Tutoring has been an overall fantastic experience. Management is very supportive and communicative and offers extensive training. There's a defined but flexible curriculum for test prep, which is an upgrade from my last tutoring job where I just had to wing it and come up with each student's lesson plan on my own. Pay is great, and there's potential for rising through the ranks if you're interested. Best of all, other tutors and management really care about their students and about education!

Cons

Managing your schedule -- tutors are in charge of their own scheduling, which is great for flexibility but there's a little bit of a learning curve. Somewhat seasonal fluctuations in hours, but that goes with the territory at a tutoring company! AJ Tutoring has been great about trying to get me the amount of work that I want.

Pros

Since it's a center, clients are assigned to you. No need to find them or deal with the cons of self-employment. If test prep or high-school level, materials are available to you and get training for it. Pay is better than similar type centers. Kids are typically sweet and motivated. Since most is online/on-location, it's pretty convenient to only have to commute once instead of going between homes. Honestly, pretty minimal amount of meetings besides a weekly touch base with your team leader which is nice. Outside of actual sessions, I didn't need to spend much time preparing materials, doing paperwork, and doing assessments which is good because "admin hours" bill at a lower rate.

Cons

Not truly a flexible schedule since you can only really work around school hours. There's a pressure on tutors to also take the responsibility of client retention/acquisition by recommending additional tutoring that sometimes feels a bit like a conflict of interest. Think like: if this student does well and no longer needs me, my billable hours goes down. Not necessarily a con, but just comes with any "caring"/"helping" profession. It hurts a little bit seeing parents are usually paying like $150/hour for a session, but the tutor receives around 25% of it. Not much progression unless you want management position, but that's just the work.
