Best of all the tutoring companies I have worked for. The starting pay is about national minimum wage for a casual employee, and unlike other tutoring companies, Ezy Math pays you a travel bonus if the client is more than 15 minutes drive from you. Although only a couple of dollars, if you can get a 1.5 or 2 hour lesson instead of just an hour, or better yet, find a second client nearby (which is not hard, as Ezy Math has way more Brisbane clients than any other tutoring company I have worked for), your travel cost is completely covered! Tutoring is a rewarding job, and I loved working with all my students and taking part in their journey towards academic success. All the parents I have come across have loved working with me, and I go above and beyond with lesson feedback, as well as trying to accommodate the times that best work for them. Unfortunately, Ezy Math, like many other companies, offer a free trial lesson, which means if the client does not like you for whatever reason, then you do not get paid for your travel, and time. It has only happened to me once, but still unfortunate that my time and petrol were wasted for nothing. Furthermore, you undergo probably one of the most rigorous screening processes of any tutoring company I have worked for. It took weeks for me to get started from application. In terms of the customer and tutor support team, they are willing to help, such as helping negotiate with clients, or handle interactions that a new or young tutor may not be comfortable handling. Furthermore, unlike some other companies, your wage can go up as you receive more and more positive client feedback (which is passed on to you via email, and always brightens your day). This means, you can soon be making almost double what you would be making in a retail store or fast food place. Furthermore, the ability to choose your hours, and work locations is really beneficial. It's entirely up to you to choose where your clients are, and match their availabilities with yours. All in all, whilst many tutoring companies make me hate the pay, or the complex procedures, Ezy Math's only downside was the long recruitment process. Everything passed there was amazing and I would recommend any aspiring tutor to choose Ezy Math over any other company.
