Pros

I was able to connect quickly with new clients and have had a steady stream of work since starting WyzAnt. In the beginning it was a little disconcerting because I might send out several back and forth emails to prospective clients and then suddenly get no response, but this was certainly not the case on all...and I quickly ended up having to start sending emails saying I was too busy to take on new clients! Love the review feature also, and the background check piece! The pay structure is what it is: I have tutored for years and I get paid just as much or more through WyzAnt than I did anywhere else.

Cons

Because I was getting too much work, I began sharing leads with a friend through WyzAnt. It was a little bit annoying to have a wyzant employee send me an email checking up on my friend to make sure they were also a WyzAnt employee and I wasn't going outside of the system. Another time I had a prospective client try to get around the system and I felt that reflected poorly on me. I don't have a problem with them taking their cut, so it gets a little irritating to be monitored so invasively.

Pros

nothing, really nothing. i signed up with them got a few jobs then once a week i would get the same notification that there was someone looking for a tutor then when i tried to go back to accept the job got a message that it was a scam and they were removing it. it was always the same name and they would follow up with the same autogenerated message: Hi Chris, We are reaching out in regards to a message you recently received from xxxxxxxxxxxxxx . After reviewing this request, we have determined that we will not be able to facilitate lessons with this account. Consequently, we have removed the request and your response rate and time will not be affected. Wyzant may remove requests that violate the terms of use, academic honesty or test policies, or if a request appears to be spam. Additionally, Wyzant may remove requests that cannot be facilitated because they fall outside of the parameters of our platform, or are not related to tutoring. Please note that Wyzant will not be able to uphold any lesson charges for this user or any new accounts they may create.

Cons
