This is a great website for tutors! I love how you are able to set your own hours and how easy the tutoring platform is. In the beginning, it may be a little hard because you don't have a clientele, but after you get a few people, you build it, and then you are off! You will have a constant income of money on the side and it is great. Also, compared to other tutoring sites, they have a fast responding helo desk and the amount of time they get back to you when you first register is very fast! I also really enjoy how you get paid weekly and it goes directly into your PayPal, extremely convenient! Overall, it is a great side if you are looking for a good side hustle or a full-time job!

One thing I will say is that I wish I found this quickly at the beginning of my classes. The only one things that was kind of stressful is finding a tutor because they were all busy. like mostly all of the were in busy in a lesson and I understand because there are definitely student like me who needs help when classes about to end. There is one tutor there that is very helpful and so nice. She will literally help you and even go and watch YouTube videos just to try to help you. She is very nice and helpful. I wish I had met her at the beginning of all this. The subscriptions I do not really like it. I got confused thinking I will pay 69 dollars for 2 hours for a month thinking it will keep refreshing but nope. I think I might have spent like close to 300 dollars. But it worth it because it did help me boost up my grade...so I am not pissed about that.

TutorMe is a very good platform for both students and tutors. They are committed towards helping each and every student understand and enjoy the process of learning. I have been tutoring in this platform for a while now and noticed that they follow a very good value system in their working. There are many platforms which offer quick answers to student's assignment problems. But TutorMe is unique in this regard and makes the students equipped to answer questions on their own!
The pay here for tutors is very good and is on an hourly basis. Also, there is a steady flow of students here as many universities have chosen TutorMe for their students. Its amazing how I can choose to tutor whenever I want (24 X 7) as the timings are flexible. Overall, I would definitely recommend this platform to my students and fellow tutors.

I am currently a new student at Ashford, doing my MBA. Week 1 of school, I was struggling with my assignment, and the night before it was due, I decided to go on tutor me. My tutor Rohn connected with me and worked with me for over 2 hrs. He was very patient and even persevered through the technical difficulties I was having with my computer. He even schedules a lesson for the next morning to do a final run through my assignment and proofread before uploading it. Now I only connect with him because of his level of service given. And guess what? My studies were all 100%. You go, Rohn A. Tutor me is very lucky to have you as a tutor. Tutor me is a great platform. I recommend it. Don't miss it. Skip the assignment when you can use tutor me.

Before covid me and my wife really like going to the tutor center on campus. But to be honestly I REALLY like this better. With this tutorme I dont have to wait on a available tutor to help me. Before, it was hard to find time to get in with the tutor because of work or classes. Now its the other way around. I can get sign in when I have time from my desk at home and see a tutor whenever I want to. I like the fact I can reach to the same tutor every time for help. A simple message to them to see when they are available and thats it! OH! you can save the lessons so you can go back to them which I LOVE so much! Once this covid is over with I would still use this.

I was looking to make some extra money and my field has fairly limited opportunities for that. I saw a post that TutorMe was looking for new hires in my field, and applied after looking through the profiles of others on TutorMe in my area of expertise. I like that I can login and, if timing permits, make some extra money doing interesting work that helps students succeed. I also appreciated in their orientation packet the expectation of high ethical standards and that students wouldn't have work done for them. That's meaningful for me, especially since I know other companies (e.g., paper mills) do that kind of stuff - that goes against the grain for me, and I'm happy TutorMe is way better than those other services. It's about learning, helping others succeed, and sharing expertise. Love it!

Tutorme.com is a tutoring on demand service where students can get the help they need in real time. Tutors are screened and carefully selected and students can expect tips to complete their work. Tutors will often ask open-ended questions, use modeling, and help identify repetitive errors in writing to make student work stronger. Tutors are friendly, encouraging, and patient. Students can request a tutor they’ve worked with before or select any tutor who is free. This service is excellent for a struggling student, one who needs guidance or confidence, or one who just doesn’t know where to start. This service is highly recommended!

I really love experience in TutorMe and willing to use TutorMe until my graduation. The best thing about this site is that you can ask any questions to experts and get perfect explanations. For example, I struggled a lot in chemistry but I could not go to every office hour or help hours because I had to spend time in other classes. Every time I have any problems, I simply logged on TutorMe and asked chemistry teachers in TutorMe. Tutors are extremely helpful. They take their time to make you understand the single material and care for you a lot. TutorMe is a best website for students who want to save their time and willing to learn.

As the world is moving more digital, TutorMe is an excellent platform to connect students and tutors. *I have not used the platform as a student.* Using the platform as a tutor has been easy to use and navigate. As a professional librarian on a sabbatical (currently as a stay-at-home mom), I love that TutorMe lets me continue doing what I love as a librarian on my own time. With a small child I do not have a regular schedule and TutorMe allows me to work around that. My only gripe with the Tutor Me platform is that I cannot help more than one student at a time. I have been using this platform for a week now, and plan to continue using it indefinitely.

Tutorme.com is an excellent platform for students who wish understand a subject, clear their doubts, or need some quick guidance with homework. Tutorme provides cutting edge tech to the users to enhance learning.I have been online Tutor for over 6 months now, and the Tutorme "whiteboard" is the best tool I have encountered so far for online teaching and learning, you can talk to your tutor via video and audio chat. You can setup your own lesson timings, learn at your own pace.
Tutorme is the epitome of customer service and good teaching/learning environment.
I recommend everyone reading this review to at least try this service for once, and then see it for yourself.

Tutor me, is a great site, I use it all the time, when I need help with homework, assignments, and more. (However, there may be some tutors that may not be the best for you, but that's okay, since they have an option, where you can talk to the tutor before going into the lesson, to see if they're right for you first.) Their website is easy, to use, and their customer service is great too. Truly recommend!

The best place for a tutor to be totally honest. As a high school student, I struggle a lot to balance my work and understand a lot of things. But the tutors I found at tutor me really helped a ton. All it is, is finding a tutor through a subject. If you don't like the one you move on to another until maybe you found the one you liked. The website is especially really easy to use.

The tutors at Tutorme are high quality, always ensure students understand the material, always provide sources for students that will furthermore help the students understanding, and overall are patient and willing to go at the students pace. As for the company itself, Tutorme always provides their customers very detailed receipts consisting of time, date, who tutored the student, and the hours spent on tutoring and the total cost of the hours (which is always a great thing to have).

I am currently a tutor on TutorMe, and I'm very happy to recommend this service. My rating is from the point of view of working for the company and providing the tutoring services. The only reason I cannot give it 5 stars is because the process of claiming lessons to instruct is so competitive that it can take some time just to get set up with a student to tutor.
That being said, if you are a student looking for a tutor, then just know that there are tutors chomping at the bit to help you out.
The interface in the lesson space provides multiple options for working through questions and teaching lessons. When I've needed to contact IT support and customer service I've received a response in less than 24 hours, and often much sooner. This is a very professional tutoring platform that I believe is successful in its goal to provide quality tutoring services.

I've had several opportunities to benefit from the writing TutorMe service at Empire State College. I am a 68 years old returning student with the need to feel confident with the assignments that are being submitted to my professors. The tutors that were assigned to me through TutorMe gave me the tools and knowledge to move forward and excel! My first 2 semesters were recognized by the Dean's List. Thank you TutorMe @ ESC!

Tutorme.com was the second platform I started using for tutoring jobs. I like that you are able to rate students and I also like how fast and easy it is to become a tutor. Tutorme.com is unique to me because it gives you a waiting room and a demo space to work in. The session can be lengthy and you have no way of telling how long a student may need help for.

Good idea, but needs some improvements. I found TutorMe looking for ways to work from home and use my bachelor's degree. I did some tutoring in college, but I wasn't successful. I only tutored one person; however, with TutorMe I am able to reach a larger audience of students who need my help more often.
The tutoring platform is well thought out and benefits both the students and tutors with a fair rating system and pricing. Unfortunately, their tutoring boards are a little hard to write on compared to other writing/drawing programs (One Note, Paint, etc.) since it doesn't register small markings (periods, the dots for lowercase i's, and circles look like random irregular polygons). Once this issue is fixed, I will give it 5 stars.
Overall, TutorMe is the best way for tutors to make a little extra money while helping students that they wouldn't have been able to reach otherwise.

When my school said we needed to use this website instead of emailing our teacher, I was a little disappointed.
I tried tutorme for the first homework assignment to get used to it.
I am not exaggerating when I say I have used a tutor for every assignment since. I learn as much from the tutors as I do in class. I love learning with multiple perspectives!

Tutoring with TutorMe has been such a phenomenal experience. Getting to see students grow each step of the way through this platform has been great for me because I feel as if I am giving back to many different communities. In a time of a pandemic this is extremely beneficial for students struggling with virtual learning, and especially struggling in such important courses such as basic math and science.

TutorMe has been a super lifesaver for me. As an online student who works full time, I am never able to get help from my professors since I am not home during their open hours. Being able to log in 24/7 and get help from someone experienced and talk through the material has helped me not to fail Chemistry. I love TutorMe and I'd recommend it to anyone.

I really enjoy working with TutorMe. As a college student myself, I appreciate the flexibility it offers as well as the decent pay they provide. The platform is very easy to use and has all the resources you could potentially need as a tutor and as a student. If you are a student looking for some extra help or a way to earn some extra cash, I totally recommend TutorMe.

I'm a college student taking math 1090, I was really struggling with my math. I had the best time with my tutor, she was more than willing to work with me and help for hours at a time. I have tried other platforms of tutoring, but nothing has worked as well as TutorMe. I recommend it 5/5. The tutors have great communication skills, are knowledgeable, and patient. They are kind and more than willing to work with your schedule.

I come to tutor me a lot and my experience has been amazing. They help me with my homework assignments that’s I have and they always explain it throughly, and in a way I could get it. They also make sure that I understand the topic and makes me feel comfortable to ask them questions. I’ve been through a lot of tutors and most of them were great.

I've had nothing but good experiences with tutorme. The tutors are so knowledgeable and helpful. I have one that I just love. Ashley S. has been helpful from the beginning. She is so understanding and patient. She listens to what I have to say and then we move from there. I wish I had of known about this last year when I was struggling with math. It would been so helpful and I probably would've been done with all of my schooling by now. Thank you so much tutorme for all the help.

Accounting Department of Tutors has been wonderful in making sure I understand each question that I've brought to them and given a definite answer. Would recommend when you are struggling and once you find a person you really connect with it becomes even easier to get the help you seek with a person that can explain it to you in one on one sessions with ease.

TutorMe.com is an easy to use, intuitive platform for both students and tutors. As a tutor, you gain access to students in any subjects you choose, and it’s fairly easy to find people who need help. The pay is decent, and the hours are whatever you choose since you can work whenever you go online. I also had issues with my PayPal, but TutorMe.com’s chat service helped me promptly. Lastly, the fact that they are very selective with the tutors they hire makes it so there are less tutors competing for the same students which is a huge plus that not all other platforms have.

TutorMe is an awesome tutoring service. Each tutor I used was very knowledgeable about the subject I needed assistance with. If you've used other services, you know that this isn't always the case.

This has been one of the best tutoring websites I have been with. I have tried many others but this offers the best flexibility of hours. You don't need to schedule appointments you just log on and take students as they pop up. Sometimes it can be slow and no students will need tutoring, so it's not for someone who is looking for a stable income. But as someone who as an irregular work schedule, I can just pop on the website whenever I am free and start tutoring on the spot.

Extremely flexible for both students and tutors. A tutor like me can easily decide how much time I wish to devote to it, and how much it is worth.
A student getting the benefits of the tutor's knowledge can first gauge his abilities, then ascertain if he/she wishes to continue with that particular tutor or not.
Extremely convenient pricing, which is attractive to both tutors and students.

Tutorme makes tutoring easy. I had such a difficult time getting help on my school's campus because most of the time the tutors would cancel our sessions. It is so convenient to use Tutorme because you can request a tutor at any time of the day and for any subject I need help with. This service saves me both time and money, I definitely recommend their services to students who have a tough time getting help in person.

As a professional of distance education, I can assert that TutorMe is a great, original and very generous teaching environment for all of us who do educational work there.

Great site! The lesson space is really intuitive and versatile, and the interface in general is great. I have never used it as a student, but as a tutor, I love it because it allows you to choose your own hours and wait for a lesson opportunity. The pay is decent, and the only small complaint is that the number of students can be relatively low. Otherwise, students always end up very happy and all the feedback I've got from students I tutored is great!

TutorMe is an awesome service, and while I cannot speak for the students, as a tutor I am a very happy employee! I feel genuinely productive, as I get to teach students in a personalized way because the Lesson Space is dynamic and I can choose what aspects to use while teaching. I also like the chat feature, where I can stay in touch with prior students, and maintain continuing relationships with some of them. I already have a few students I regularly help out. I only wish there was something in the interface to schedule future sessions with students, and an alerting system. Otherwise, I have no complaints.

I work as a tutor on the TutorMe platform. I'm enjoying my time as a tutor so far. I get a steady flow of students every day, so I've been able to form relationships with some of them. The lesson space is really great, there's a whiteboard, a text editor, a code editor, and a file sharer, which is everything I need and more to teach programming, math, and physics.
PROS:
Lesson Space is very well developed, has many media to hold lessons
Simple Interface, easy to find things
Weekly payout via Paypal
One button to switch between Tutor and Student mode (Unique!)
Chats to connect with past and current students
CONS:
Low Pay ($18/hr) is lower than most other sites
Uber style matching means tutors have to sit and wait on the site for tutors to come by
Relatively low student to tutor ratio as of September 2017
Desktop Notifications push too slowly, by the time I click on the notification the lesson is usually gone
No incentives for great teaching - No bonuses or even online achievements / badges
No way to set up future or reoccurring appointments with students
No features of top-performing tutors
No testing / verification of tutor knowledge of subject areas
