Wyzant

Offers private tutoring in a wide variety of subject areas. Tutors set their own rates and schedules. Tutors can choose to teach remotely or in person. Wyzant was founded in 2005 as the first digital marketplace connecting students to independent tutors. Stay-at-home parents can sign up to be tutors on the platform or search for tutors for their own children, based on a wide variety of subject areas. It is a good choice for someone who wants to earn extra money working from home or locally. A con is that Wyzant takes a % of the pay.

Grades: All ages/grade levels

Cost: The rate is set by each, individual tutor.
