It depends on how you get started. My free report will give you many options. Some free and some that cost money.

Hi Scott...I visited tutor.com and the tutoring rate is 35$ an hour. I want to know how much they pay to tutors out of 35$?

I have spoken with several tutors over the years who started out with tutor.com or at least looked into it. From what I understand, they pay their tutors between $8 - up to around $15 an hour. I don't know this for sure, but those are the pay rates I heard about from other tutors.

.. which does not mean that they pay only that much "out of the $35", because the situation is more complicated than it might at first appear.
For example, Tutor.com has special arrangements with public libraries that allow students to get free tutoring through those libraries. Also, at least some tutors do their tutoring through Tutor.com not for financial gain but more as a kind of voluntary work. See, for example, the tutor profile of Kenneth F.
Tutor.com claims to be paying "competitive rates" (see the FAQ).

The grants and gov funding that tutor.com receives, helps them expand their business and reach out to libraries and kids who probably would not have access to online tutors any other way.

Hi Scott
Actually I know the huge potential of your online business.I will surely start it after 2-3 months because of my hectic schedule these days. Meanwhile I want to join any online tutoring company who can pay me around 10-15$ an hour. Can you suggest any?

I am not an expert when it comes to landing online tutor jobs. Tutor.com would be a good starting point for you.

It is what you make of it. If you read my free report, you'll see that there are many tools you'll need to be successful.

I coach tutors and give them all the tools with my TutorFi program, but for those tutors who don't complete my level training system (about 80 hours worth of work), there is no hope for them.

For those tutors who complete my level training system, there is no way they can fail.

It comes down to one thing Manish, how bad do you want to succeed?

What if a parent tells you no? Will you quit or will you continue to advertise your service until you speak with another parent who says yes, sign me up.

What if your website doesn't generate phone calls? Will you make adjustments and try again?

Without a doubt getting started is the hardest part, but if you commit to yourself and even follow my basic plan inside my free report, you can create a very profitable online tutoring business now and into the future.

Hi Scott

As i am busy day in and day out with something else, i will surely start your b-plan after 2-3 months.Since i too feel the power of this business.Thank u very much. Meanwhile, I'm looking for a tutoring job where i can devote my best 2 hrs per day.
