Pros
Remote work and flexible hours, paid on time.
Kontras
The communication between the managers and the tutors is mostly non-existent. During onboarding, GoStudent makes threats towards the tutors about poaching students, not showing up to lessons, etc. Very much stick, not carrot. They lock parents into long contracts and the only way for them to get out is to send GoStudent personal, financial information proving that they can no longer afford the service. ~60% commission fee which tutors have to pay to be on the platform which is incredibly high, considering that the tutoring platform does not work the majority of the time, and students often struggle to log in and use the tech. Investment in seemingly unrealistic VR classes and AI lesson plans, which are unused, rather than paying tutors fairly. Pay has been stagnant for years. Tutors barely get compensated for student no-shows. Tutors have to work trial lessons mostly for free. Strange tutor contracts.
