Varsity Tutors Reviews

Pros

Honestly, I have only been a part of the Varsity Tutors team for a couple months now, but I genuinely enjoy getting to work as a tutor for this company. They have one of the best employee-support teams that I have ever come across; they are always eager to resolve any issues that may arise within a tutoring session as well as answer any questions along the way. The pay is solid, and, as a tutor, I have complete control of if and when I tutor. For online tutoring, I have the opportunity to discuss with clients about what their expectations are as we continue our sessions and I can easily schedule clients and make adjustments to the schedule if I need to. When working with a student online, we have access to a highly sophisticated interactive board to guide students through each lesson.

Cons

The biggest downfall, in my opinion, is the process Varsity Tutors takes to remove a client from your list of students when they do not have enough credits for tutoring sessions. It would be easier on tutors if we received notification that a client were dropped because of financial reasons, as opposed to receiving the same notification we do when clients' goals are met or they are reassigned. Knowing that a student is temporarily out of credits and can be reassigned to you would be more beneficial than it seeming like we will not have that student again.

Pros

I am grateful to work at Varsity Tutors. I've been in Education for a while and I get to explore my professional career in a different way while still helping people with their educational needs. I have been working at Varsity Tutors for almost 3 years, and every time that I asked, I've been able to explore my own initiatives and given the chance to learn while working with very knowledgeable people. I am also grateful to work at a place where the culture of "helping people learn" pushes for giving back to the community during trying times!

Cons

None to mention at this time

Pros

Varsity tutors is amazing! You get to help people learn. The pay is great. We get awesome benefits. And the live learning platform truly helps us stand out as the #1 tutoring company! The best part is the people who work here. Everyone is great.

Cons

This is a sales job, so you will be expected to get sales. But that’s ok, because the training and support here is incredible. If you just follow the system and advice you get from the trainers and your manager, you’ll do great!

Pros

Excellent culture, adaptive business model and a strong vision. This company is a very innovative one, its culture, model and upper management all have the mindset of growing this business to shape an industry. It is a sales position but it gives you the opportunity to learn sales in the correct way. Asking inquisitive questions and truly getting to know your customer. I have very much enjoyed working here and if you are looking for a place to grow not only professionally, but personally then this is an excellent company to do that.

Cons

Benefits are lacking somewhat, mostly due to a high deductible.
