Wyzant has fallen off, looking for alternatives
I’ve been tutoring math for three years, largely on wyzant, and like many people I have noticed an absolutely massive decline in business in the past 9 months or so. Went from having such a packed schedule last fall that I had to raise my rates to $300/hour, to having hardly any requests or responses to applications I send out on Wyzant, even at much lower rates.
So… is it possible to branch out to an agency where I’d have a shot at getting consistent work? I live in NYC, and tutor math from elementary school to college, but am not sure where to look to identify high-end agencies that may have openings.
Qualifications are my degree and my work as a math TA at a T10 school, and my wyzant profile (5 stars, many testimonials, 900+ hours). Has anyone here gotten work at a high-paying agency in a top market based on your independent tutoring background?
I’ve also tutored SAT/ACT but it’s not my specialty. Currently working on the LSAT too, but I doubt that there’s any credibility opportunity too without actually taking it and getting a marketable score.
Anyway, thoughts/guidance appreciated.
