Tutorax

A typical day at work starts around 3pm and can end as late as 10pm (with breaks in between) but there is a lot of flexibility in what hours you can work. You set your own session days and times and you can work around your own schedule very easily. Some sessions are in-person which require a short drive to the student's house and some are online which take place through Lessonspace, which is a very good platform for online tutoring. 

I have learned how to work with students in different ways to make maths engaging and more enjoyable to learn. I have also learned what it is like to work for myself and manage my own work schedule effectively. 

The management team at Tutorax are all very friendly and helpful and reply to a text message or email very promptly. 

The workplace culture is fairly reliant on the students and parents that you work with since you are mostly self-employed and don't have many interactions with other employees at Tutorax. I have had very positive experiences with students and parents on the whole which has made the workplace culture very enjoyable. 

The hardest part of the job is when a student does not enjoy maths and is struggling to understand a concept. Finding a different way to explain something so that the student understands it and making maths enjoyable can be challenging  but it is so satisfying when you can get them to understand it and enjoy it more.

The most enjoyable part of the job is seeing students progress and improve their maths skills over time. Knowing that you have helped a student to understand something that they couldn't do before is a great feeling and makes the job very satisfying. 

Tutorax has impressed me with its well-structured and organized approach, ensuring that every process flows seamlessly. The organization stands out in its effective management, which is reflected in the ease of interaction with managers and supervisors. Their friendly and kind demeanour contributes significantly to a positive working environment.

One of the most notable aspects of Tutorax is the autonomy it offers to tutors. The flexibility in setting our own schedules and the direct communication channels with parents and students greatly enhance work-life balance. This autonomy does not only foster a sense of responsibility but also allows for personal and professional growth.

The platform used for virtual sessions is another highlight. Its user-friendly interface and functionality facilitate real-time interaction with students, making the virtual tutoring process as effective as in-person sessions. This technology aspect is vital for delivering quality education and maintaining engagement with students.

Promotions at Tutorax are based on merit, with a clear and logical system in place. This merit-based approach not only motivates but also provides a transparent pathway for career advancement. The sense of fairness and recognition for hard work is highly appreciated.

Compared to experiences shared by my peers who tutor for other companies, Tutorax undoubtedly stands out. It offers a blend of flexibility, effective communication, and a supportive work environment, all of which contribute to an excellent work experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Tutorax to anyone seeking a fulfilling tutoring role.

Working with Tutorax has been a great experience overall. The job is very flexible as you can work as much or as little as you'd like. You are able to make your own schedule directly with parents and students, which makes it easy to fit tutoring around other commitments.
A typical day involves meeting with students (either online or in person) to review material, help them prepare for tests, and build their confidence in subjects they are struggling with. The students and families I have worked with have been wonderful, and I've always felt heard and supported by the management team at Tutorax.
I have learned a lot about adapting my teaching style to different learners and finding creative ways to keep students engaged. Sometimes it can be challenging to work with students who are unmotivated, but that's also what makes the job interesting! It pushes you to find new ways to connect and get through to them.
The most rewarding part of the job is seeing students finally understand concepts we've been working on and watching their confidence (and grades) improve over time. Seeing that growth over a semester is incredibly fulfilling and is why I love tutoring!

As a CEGEP student with a busy schedule, Tutorax was honestly the perfect job. The flexibility is unmatched, I get to choose how many students I want, what subjects I’m most confident in, and whether I want in-person or online sessions. The communication with the managers is always super clear and supportive. I recently even got a raise after proving my work ethic and commitment, which showed me they actually value their tutors.

A typical day for me is prepping for sessions, helping students one-on-one, and seeing real progress in their learning. It’s honestly fulfilling, especially since I want to be a teacher. The hardest part is sometimes getting a student that drops last minute, but overall it’s 100% worth it.

This job taught me to be more patient, organized, and to adapt my teaching style to different personalities. Super grateful for the opportunity.

A typical day at Tutorax for me is flexible. I log into the platform, teach my students online, and focus on helping them achieve their academic goals. The scheduling platform and communication system make it easy to stay prepared and consistent. The teaching platform provided is also very accessible and efficient. 

Additionally, working with Tutorax, I’ve gained strong  communication skills, and have also grown my time-management and leadership skills! Tutorax fosters a positive and inclusive environment, and the management team is responsive,  understanding, and always willing to help. 

The hardest part of the job would be to create effective personalized lesson plans for each student to help them develop their understanding and boost their confidence levels. However, being able to help students finally understand something they were struggling with is the best feeling. 

The convenience of working online and helping students achieve their goals makes tutoring very enjoyable! I also enjoy the flexibility to take on students based on my availability.


A typical day involves a dynamic mix of responsibilities, from preparing lessons to fostering connections with students and parents. The inherent flexibility in time management has proven invaluable, allowing for a tailored and adaptive teaching approach. Over time, I've cultivated skills in effective communication with parents, simplifying intricate concepts for students, and navigating the delicate task of motivating children, particularly in challenging situations. The job may require balancing lesson preparation with the often-last-minute requests from students, a notable challenge in this role. Despite this, the most rewarding facet of the job lies in witnessing the tangible outcomes – the gratifying moments when students not only improve their test results but genuinely grasp complex concepts. 

My experience working at Tutorax has been quite fulfilling. Not only has the company provided me with the flexibility to create my own schedule based on my own availability but they have also acknowledged my hard work. 
Management is communicative and responsive whenever I might have a concern such as having trouble reaching a parent. 
Working with Tutorax has taught me many valuable skills such as professional phone etiquette when speaking to parents, time management, and adapting teaching styles based on the student's age and needs.
One thing the company could improve on is the amount of teaching resources made available to tutors. Most of the times, I have to search for learning activities myself.
Overall, great company to work with if you're looking to have some independence, flexibility, gain valuable skills and make a difference in a student's life!

The most challenging aspect is addressing the wide range of student abilities and motivation levels.

Tutorax is a great place to work. One of the main issues with tutoring is not finding enough clients. I can certainly say that this is not a concern when working at Tutorax. I often have to turn down offers if I already have too many sessions in a week. A typical day at work will depend on how you schedule yourself, but I mainly just prepare 15min before a session and then leave it up to the student for how long they want to go over the material.

I believe the management is great. My contact with Tutorax responds quickly and is able to correct any issues I have. THe most enjoyable part of the job is helping others succeed in their classes. The hardest part is finding a time that can work for everyone in a given week. That is mostly just down to the schedule of the tutor and their students.
