Pros

Every time I speak to a representative, they are polite. This company pays a bit more than others.

Cons

I would like more students to tutor, however I limited my travel distance to only a 10 mile radius of where I'm living. Pay period is only once a month. Was told in the beginning I needed a back ground check (understandable) but wasn't aware it was $48 and would be taken out of my own pocket.

Pros

If you're looking for a part time job that is flexible and rewarding - this is it! At Grade Potential the staff are great, friendly and always willing to help with anything. You can get as many students as you have time for.

Cons

When offered a new student, if you don't reply soon the student may be given to another tutor. So getting in contact with the staff and letting them know that you are available is important.

Pros

I was looking for extra tutoring money & applied to Grade Potential. About a week later I was emailed that I was selected. There was no interview process. I am a credentialed teacher so this is probably why I was qualified right away. The agency had a student for me within a week of applying. The people working there are very nice & friendly. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for tutoring jobs &/or extra money. My availability changed so I couldn't continue to tutor. I notified the company and parent beforehand.

Cons

It's probably because I only have a Multiple Subject credential and a Single Subject credential but I only had 1 student. Depending on your other work, this can be a pro or a con. I have a full time teaching job so it was okay. I do wish they warned me that my background check would be coming out of my first check. It was $48 out of my check. It was never mentioned. You get paid once a month. Despite being a credentialed teacher, my hourly rate was $23. When I privately tutor, I get $35 an hour. BUT $23 is better than $0 an hour.
