Hello fellow tutor aspirees, side hustlers, academic extraordinaires. I’m here to give you the scoop on the various tutoring platforms, how their services work, tutoring requirements, the types of students on each platform, and of course - how much you get paid for your time.
A little about me. I’ve tutored for a few months now on the following platforms: Varsity Tutors, Wyzant, and SuperProf. I’ve had a number of students on each platform, and it’s safe to say I’ve definitely realized the pros and cons of each one.
Wyzant
Money Info: You set your hourly rate. Wyzant takes 25% of it. If you set your rate to $20/hr you get paid $15/hr.
The Requirements: Each subject you tutor you have to take a 10–20 question multiple choice test on it. The test will be beginner to intermediate questions on the subject you’ve chosen. You only have one chance to pass the test.
The Pros:

• You set your own rate
• Tutors and students can freely schedule meetings on their own, rather than have someone assign you
• The user interface is better(mobile app, messaging system, teaching platform, etc)
• Students can largely vary(this can be a con too). You will get a wider range of students, who can be adults with various full time jobs.

The Cons:

• You are charged 25% of your hourly rate
• It’s very hard to get started as a new tutor. There are tons of tutors with a lot of reviews already.
• There are scammers(be cautious of people asking you to communicate off the platform)

Final Verdict
Wyzant is an easy to use platform that takes a while to build a student base. You’ll have to apply and reach out to students a lot at first before you start getting more consistent jobs. This can take a few months, so consider this before you start. The 25% fee is high, but certainly not unreasonable compared to other platforms.
Varsity Tutors
Money Info: Unless you’re tutoring GRE or LSATs, the flat rate is $15/hr, regardless of the subject. GRE and LSAT tutors make $28/hr. Varsity Tutors charges their students $50 - $75/hr.
Requirements: Most subjects do not require a test, however you do need to send in a video interview of yourself, mostly to confirm that you can speak eloquently.
The Pros:

• You are assigned students after declaring interest, so you can get started tutoring within a few days.
• Students are screened so you’ll mostly get students more prepared for lessons.

The Cons:

• A large amount of tutors will only make $15/hr, whereas they charge $50 - $75/hr per student. This can be a huge cut, and limit on pay, especially if you’re teaching harder subjects like programming, sciences, higher level math.
• The user interface is not as great. Basic functionality is there, but the overall platform is not aesthetic.
• You are legally not allowed to take students off the platform.

Final Verdict
Varsity Tutors definitely has the lowest pay amongst all the platforms. $15/hr to teach is what you can make at some retail jobs in the US. The platform can be better if you need to start making money immediately, or if you live in a country where the cost of living is lower. The amount you are paid is better for people who are teaching subjects that aren’t too difficult.
SuperProf
Money Info: You set your own rate, SuperProf takes 10%. The caveat, SuperProf charges students $39 a month to use the platform.
Pros:

• For tutors, SuperProf takes the least amount from your pay compared to other platforms.
• Students are generally more prepared because they are paying $39 a month to use the platform.
• The user interface is also pretty good.
• You can set your own cancellation policies

Cons:

• There are less students because of the monthly subscription fee.
• It’s very hard to get started as a new tutor. There are tons of tutors with a lot of reviews already.
• You have to teach your first two lessons free.

Final Verdict
SuperProf is very similar to Wyzant in that students and tutors can openly communicate and set up time with each other. The 10% fee is lower than the other platforms. But because it’s already hard to get started as a new tutor, and there are less students on the platform, it’s one of the harder platforms to build a student base.
Additional Notes
While all these platforms have their pros and cons. You can always consider tutoring independently. You do not need any licenses or business registration for tutoring in most places. Once you get a student base through Wyzant or SuperProf, you can take them off-platform and teach independently. The best part? You keep the money you work hard for.

I’m doing a level maths and will need a graphic calculator. I was put on the further maths gcse 5 weeks before exam season and have been taught nothing. Should I get a graphic calculator now to get a few extra marks??

I just today picked up my first 3d printer, meaning I don’t really know what I’m doing yet. It was a pre owned Ender 3 and the guy had a BL Touch installed on it that he let me keep. When I went home and tried to get it going, I got the plate leveled (I think) pretty well. But something I had a lot of trouble figuring out was the Z offset with the BL Touch, my extruder kept being way too high when trying to test prints and any attempt to lower the Z axis wouldn’t let me drop the value below 0 so I had it as low as it would let me. For a first time user would it just be worth it for me to remove the BL touch all together so I don’t have that aspect of calibration to worry about, or do the pros of having it outweigh the cons? (If they do please elaborate for me cause I’m smooth brain with this stuff) thank you for your time and feedback with helping me figure this out.

Today my friend showed me a pic of an announcement by ECFMG that on the 1st of July 2024 Step 1 USMLE exam might become scored again. There was also mentioning of adding Step 2 CS exam as permanent alternative to OET test. However I tried looking up on the ECFMG website and found nothing,tried looking up the USMLE site and also found nothing. On this sub no one seems to be mentioning anything about a revert,neither on medicalschool . Is the shift to P/F permenant or is there a possibility that by 2025 the exam will become scored?

It has been really hard to get back on track, during my initial time in 6th form, my dad was diagnosed with cancer. Luckily he is in remission, but he was left partially paralysed from the operations.
I failed my A-Levels at 6th form and have since been working in retail for 2 years, but last year started studying for 3 A-Levels to sit this year. Also during these last 5-6 years my sister has had really bad mental health issues, getting worse this year with constant breakdowns and eventually leading to her being hospitalised.
Especially this year my sister has really affected me and my ability to study, even though I tried to help, idk what I could do. Constant anxiety of not knowing what I'll come home to (constant crying, throwing stuff), unable to focus/be productive at library, trying to escape from it.
I don't know who I should contact about this, seeing that 5% extra marks are allocated for an immediate family death by exam boards, makes me think that contacting the university would be the best option? Luckily I only have a couple of exams left.

Hi all, first time poster in this community - I'd really appreciate some opinions on my current situation and what you think I might do next please.
I'm currently working in the M365 space for a Microsoft Partner - it's a smaller company but we're doing well and job prospects appear good. When I started the role I focused more on SharePoint - some good intranet projects etc - and have since been working on some more niche projects, such as around the Viva suite of products. I've had good feedback so far and have had a promotion to a standard level consultant last year, with a good pay increase in tandem.
Whilst my feedback has been good and I'm adding value to the company in different ways - I've started doing some work in the wider M365 community which has been enjoyable - I am worried about how my skillset in transferable outside of my current role. I still struggle with some of the more technical aspects of SharePoint and wouldn't want to go down the developer pathway, and I've spent more time doing general consulting work with customers. However, whenever I see job adverts for other companies looking for M365 consultants, they all seem to insist on the likes of PowerShell, SPFx and Power Platform competencies, which I just don't have at this point.
Whilst I am happy with my current company and my current terms, I'm unsure about how I am supposed to progress further especially with my lack of technical skills. I also worry about how I might move into an equivalent role at another company if something happened to my current role. I have done presales work and have spent a fair amount of time on commercials, so I do have sales experience, but I'm not sure this is where I want the current role to take me in order to progress. That said, I don't know how I could move into team manager or practice lead roles without a more technical background.
I have recently considered doing a pivot to learn more about the likes of Purview, as the skillset seems valuable and it aligns with some of my current knowledge. That said, I don't really know how I'd learn about this further, and I'm not sure how this would appear given I've previously spent time focusing on employee engagement/internal communications etc.
I would be really grateful for any suggestions or thoughts, so thank you in advance for any advice you can give!

Title. Need to pass my didactic summative to go into clinical year, I wish my program gave us our packrat before the summative to identify content area weaknesses and likelihood of passing without cramming.

Guys do i have a chance at English taught programs for engineering or computer science?

• Will give school leaving exam (12th grade) after few months... Expecting like 75% (Science stream with CS)
• My English is strong too.. so guessing IELTS band 6.5+

Started learning German in Duolingo

• I should be well off with TestAS too cuz im preparing for JEE (one of the toughest entrance exams in the world)

(Also, i have tried running small businesses/freelancing ever since I was 15
So this could count as co-curriculars right??)

Hi Reddit,
I'm a seasoned electrical engineer (A non German speaker ) with extensive experience in substation testing equipment. I recently moved to Germany, but I've found that my current skills don’t fully align with the market demands here. To bridge this gap, I’m looking to pursue practical training in my interest areas such as high voltage testing, partial discharge analysis, and electrical inspection.
My goal is to enhance my expertise and increase my relevance in the German power sector.
I need recommendations for reputable training courses and advice on breaking into the German power market.
Any insights or suggestions from fellow engineers or industry professionals would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help! * Please note that I am aware of the importance of german language hence I am already pursuing it .

Hello there,
As the title says, I’ve been planning to become an English teacher since I’m a fresh graduate from university. I don’t know where to begin to look. So here are my questions.

1. Are there any tips on strategies for teaching and what to do and prepare?
   
   1. How to be prepared for questions that students might ask?
   2. How to be prepared for each level? From kindergarten to high school.
   3. Any general tips to approach my students in a friendly way? And personal tips, for example, raising voice to be heard by all students, etc.
   4. How to prepare for the whole material?
   5. How to prepare for exams and set test scores?
   6. And finally how to improve and this field? because I want to do my best in my job

So, I’m scheduled to take my exam September 13th. I’ve been studying since the middle of March, but I feel like it is all sporadic. I’m only like halfway through all content. I’ll be done with PS Anki on June 30th. I do JW every day, but I am still missing questions and don’t feel good about content.
A little extra background, I’m a nurse working full time, and I just started a 4.5 week summer biology course. I’ll be taking a full semester bio course this fall. This has really thrown me off even more. My studying has declined and become more passive. The course is over July 3rd. I’m thinking of trying to take off all of August and just study nonstop and take the exam.
Otherwise, should I just cancel it and try next year in March? I’m not applying until next cycle, but I just feel like I’ll probably procrastinate over the next few months if I cancel.
Edit: I do have UWorld and do practice questions when possible.

Improving self-esteem is a journey that involves self-awareness, personal growth, and often, a supportive environment. For those looking to enhance their self-esteem, astrocartography and relocation astrology can be insightful tools. These practices can help identify locations that resonate with and bolster your personal sense of self-worth and confidence. Let's explore how astrology can assist you in finding a place that nurtures your self-esteem.
Using Your Relocated Chart to Enhance Self-Esteem
Your relocated chart can reveal astrological influences conducive to improving self-esteem:
Key House Positions for Self-Esteem Enhancement:

• 1st House (Self-Identity and Physical Body): A strong 1st house in your relocated chart can enhance your personal presence and self-identity, boosting confidence and self-assurance.
• 5th House (Creativity and Self-Expression): Positive aspects in the 5th house can foster creativity and personal expression, key components of self-esteem.
• 2nd House (Personal Values and Self-Worth): A well-aspected 2nd house can bolster feelings of self-worth and help you align with your core values.

Advantageous Planetary Aspects for Building Confidence:

• Sun for Vitality and Self-Identity: Favorable Sun aspects can enhance your sense of self, vitality, and personal authority.
• Jupiter for Optimism and Growth: Positive Jupiter aspects can bring a sense of expansion and positivity, aiding in self-esteem growth.
• Mars for Assertiveness and Drive: Harmonious Mars aspects can bolster your courage and assertiveness, contributing to a stronger self-image.

Planetary Combinations Supporting Self-Esteem:

• Sun-Jupiter: Encourages self-confidence and a positive, expansive outlook.
• Moon-Venus: Enhances emotional harmony and the ability to appreciate oneself.
• Mercury-Mars: Supports assertive and confident communication, an essential aspect of self-esteem.

Astrocartography for Finding Confidence-Boosting Locations
Astrocartography can identify locations that might be particularly beneficial for enhancing your self-esteem:

• Sun Lines for Personal Empowerment: Locations under Sun lines can increase your sense of individuality and self-confidence.
• Jupiter Lines for Positive Growth: Jupiter lines can bring opportunities for personal development and a more optimistic outlook.
• Mars Lines for Assertiveness and Action: Mars lines are excellent for boosting your drive, assertiveness, and ability to take action, all of which contribute to building self-esteem.

Combining Relocated Chart and Astrocartography for Self-Esteem
By integrating insights from your relocated chart with astrocartography, you can pinpoint locations that maximize your potential for self-esteem development. For instance, a strong 1st or 5th house in your relocated chart, combined with a Sun line in astrocartography, might indicate an ideal place for fostering self-confidence.
Natal Chart Considerations for Self-Esteem
Your natal chart provides foundational insights into your inherent self-esteem and areas for growth:

• Natal 1st, 2nd, and 5th Houses: These houses can reveal inherent aspects of your self-esteem, personal values, and capacity for self-expression.
• Natal Sun, Jupiter, and Mars: Their placements can offer insights into your natural confidence levels, optimism, and assertiveness.
• Aspects to the Midheaven and Ascendant: Can influence how you present yourself to the world and your sense of self.

For individuals seeking to improve their self-esteem, astrocartography and relocation astrology offer unique pathways to finding the most supportive environments. Understanding the astrological influences of different locations and how they interact with your natal chart can guide you towards places that nurture your confidence and self-worth. However, enhancing self-esteem also involves personal reflection, self-acceptance, and often, supportive relationships or guidance. Balancing astrological insights with self-care practices and positive lifestyle changes can lead to a profound and lasting improvement in self-esteem.

My wife wants to practice driving for her coming exam, so I offered. But she said she feels uncomfortable (she can't in general take any advice or remark from me). So she stopped it, and one day suddenly she showed up saying she had someone to practice. A friend of a friend of her sister. We have a kid, 6 years old; I work Monday to Friday, so Saturdays will be her practice day. The guy would then come and I should stay home with the kid. Up to there, normal... But the guy never came home, never showed his face, not to mention introduce himself (or she introduced him): he waited in his car and she went out to meet him. This went on for some weeks and they left for 2-3 hrs, and I didn't say anything: as we had moved to Europe, to her country, I still didn't know how are uses in her country and society. I didn't want to look out of place, insecure and so. Then one day I found out they went together to the movies after not so much driving.

I just did my Higher Level Maths exam in pencil, I reread the papers while studying for paper 2 only to find out it to do the exam in blue or black pen only, and reserve pencil for diagrams. Am I cooked? And if so what should I do?
