Do you love teaching? Do you have the qualifications to teach on a particular subject? Why not be a tutor?<\/p>\n

Tutors work at many different education levels. It’s not all K-12; college students need tutors too.<\/p>\n

Qualifications\/Training Needed?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Qualifications vary on the type of tutoring you want to do. Some may require that you be a credentialed teacher. Others may only want you to have a college degree.<\/p>\n

You can work for a tutoring service or seek out your own students.<\/p>\n

Job Duties<\/strong><\/p>\n

You may work regularly with particular students or be available at particular times for whichever students come looking for help.<\/p>\n

The basic job, of course, is to help the students improve in whatever subject you are tutoring.<\/p>\n

Your hours may be very flexible, but you have to be available at times that people are going to want a tutor.<\/p>\n

Equipment Needed<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you’re an online tutor, you’ll need your computer and high speed internet access.<\/p>\n

Where to Search for Jobs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Education job listings<\/a> at Home with the Kids
\nCraigslist<\/a> (beware of many, many scams!)
\n Hire My Mom<\/a>
\nHome Job Stop<\/a>
\nElance<\/a>
\nGuru<\/a>
\nCollege campus bulletin boards if you’re going to tutor local college students. Post your information.<\/p>\n

Related Scams<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tutoring is of course subject to the usual “pay to show your interest scam,” but there’s another interesting possibility.<\/p>\n

You answer an ad for a tutor<\/a>, and are told that you will be paid by certified check. They want you to cash the check, take out your pay and send the balance on to someone else.<\/p>\n

This is related to the mystery shopping scam<\/a> or payment processing scam<\/a> where they tell you to take your mystery shopping pay out of the check. It’s fraudulent, and you are suddenly responsible for the money. Worse, you can face criminal charges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
