WyzAnt reviews

Starting rate is redonkalous. I pay the same percentage rate to an actual office that I work out of, but they give me space to work out of, office equipment, training, tutorpanel subscription etc, and they actually give me leads instead of leaving me to fend for myself. Starting out on WyzAnt is REALLY HARD, they definitely don't give you any guidance. Now that I'm more established there it isn't so bad, but it took a long time to get my first lead from them. I don't really know why, but I generally find that WyzAnt parents have unreasonable expectations in comparison to other parents that I work with. I can bill higher out of my office and the parents basically just trust me to do my job, I think with WyzAnt since I "came from the internet" they think of tutoring as a commodity.

I was ultimately let go from Wyzant when my manager left the company and another person was tasked with managing my work who ultimately did not understand the discipline or how to measure performance and goals. I think this ultimately left a really poor impression on my though because they let me go 1 week to the day before I would have vested into a benefits package (I'm certain this was planned) it was also 2 weeks before I was due to get married which just felt heartless to me. The kicker is I never really received any critical feedback to suggest I should do something differently.
