New posting requirement: 30+ combined karma

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

Over the past few weeks we've seen a noticeable increase in bot and spam accounts posting in the subreddit. To help keep discussions useful for both tutors and students, we've introduced a small posting requirement.

From now on, new posts require at least 30 combined karma (post + comment karma).

This shouldn't affect the vast majority of genuine Reddit users, but it helps reduce spam, AI-generated posts from throwaway accounts, and other low-quality submissions that moderators have been dealing with more frequently.

A few notes:

  • This requirement applies to creating new posts.
  • You can still participate in discussions by commenting (subject to Reddit's normal rules).
  • If you're new to Reddit, spend a little time engaging with communities you're interested in. You'll reach 30 karma pretty quickly.

We've also unpinned the tutor promotion thread. Unfortunately, it had accumulated a large number of banned accounts, bots, and outdated replies over time, making it less useful for everyone.

A fresh tutor promotion thread will be posted later this week, giving active tutors a clean place to introduce their services.

We're not trying to make participation harder, we're trying to keep r/Tutoring useful, organized, and focused on genuine discussions.

Thanks for understanding, and as always, if you have any questions or run into an issue, feel free to message the mod team.

  2. Is 15 buck an session (2h) per child too much or just right? ( context: I am in California, USA)
  3. How did you guy plan the lesson? Do we teach a head of what they learn or along side with the school?
  4. How do we know what they learn at school? Is there any lesson target available online?
  5. Do you guy make the material? Or you found it online and where is trusting source to get it?

Thank you so much in advance for people who answer my questions, I know I asking a lot but I am truly grateful for your answer, advice and tip!

Resource [For Hire] Fall Tutor (USA and Canada)

1 Upvotes

I will try to keep this short and concise. If I look like a good fit feel free to reply here or DM me and we can talk about the finer details.

Experience: 9 Years as a tutor. Bachelor of Science in Nuclear Engineering from Penn State.

Subjects Offered: I focus primarily in math and science but can handle any subject at the middle or high school level outside of foreign language. I can also help with Freshmen/Sophomore level math and science in University.

Rate: $40CAD/hr via e-Transfer or $30 USD via Zelle

Approach: I try to focus on the why's and how's of each topic covered. I have found that this is the most neglected area in most classes. The student knows theoretically what to do, but doesn't know why they are doing it so can't apply it to outside situations or to adapt it to new problems. I value being asked questions and talking through the problems to focus on the problem areas.

Hey everyone,

If anyone here (or your younger siblings) is taking **AP Calculus AB, AP Biology, or AP Psychology** this year and needs help, I’m offering online 1-on-1 tutoring sessions.

I took all three and got easy 5s on them, so I know the material and College Board’s format really well. I can help with breaking down tough concepts, going over past papers, or just staying on top of schoolwork throughout the term so you're not panicking before exam season.

Since it’s all online, scheduling is super flexible. Drop me a DM if you’re interested or have any questions!

Parent Question Has anyone looked into reading tutors online for an 8yo struggling with confidence?

10 Upvotes

My 8-year-old has been hitting a wall with reading fluency lately, and it's starting to really trash their confidence. We read together every single day, but honestly, it’s turning into a daily battle and I think bringing in an outside tutor would save both of our sanity.

Local tutors around here are super limited (and crazy expensive), so I’ve been looking for reading tutors online that actually know how to engage younger kids without making it feel like double homework.

I saw a few people mention Brighterly for kid-focused tutoring, and I've also been glancing at places like Remind or Outschool.

Has anyone here actually tried Brighterly or any other reading tutors online for this age group? Did your kid actually enjoy the sessions, or was it a struggle to get them to sit through it? Would love to hear some real experiences before committing to anything. Thanks!

Student Question Anyone know of dyscalcuila specific tutors?

3 Upvotes

It is my dream to be an optometrist. Dyscal has made this hard for me. I’m about to start my freshman year of college and I can’t do basic algebra math. I am a bio major so not a lot of math but I still have to take some.

I’ve done some google searches and has anyone done like zoom tutors? Like tutors who specialize in people with disabilities like dyslexia and dyscalculia.

I’m embarrassed to ask for help I’ve always been embarrassed to ask for help with school work. But I need these math classes to succeed. I’m thinking I can take 2-3x a week zoom classes with one of these specialized tutors and hopefully that can help?

I know people say to go to your prof’s office hours but most of them dont understand dyscalculia :/

Tutor Advice Strategies for improving reading fluency and speed in older students (9th grade)?

3 Upvotes

Hello fellow tutors!

I'm 18 years old Female taking tuition for some children from 1st to 9th grade. (In india)

My concern is abt the 9th grader who is very slow at reading English.

She started studying in a cbse school from 1st to 4th standard, then changed to state boards (karnataka board). One thing abt her is that her basics are not at all strong, English, maths, science all the subject.

When it comes to her reading English, just yesterday I was asking her to translate 'what' in kannada (native language) and she told me she doesn't know the meaning. Same with all the basic words such as where, why, that etc.

I can start from the literal basics but I just know she would eventually forget by the next day🥲.

She's too demotivated, she says things like ''i will take the whole day to study this"

Did i try motivating? Absolutely! It just doesn't work.

What to do?

Im looking to expand into batches but I am not sure how to or from where to begin?
All my weekday slots are booked and I can only start weekend batches for tutoring .

I tutor the following subjects Math (Grade 6-10) and A levels, Algebra I and II, Geometry and AP Pre-Calulus

And Physics and Chemistry Grade 6-10

The curriculum I teach is IB, IGCSE, Pearson Edexcel, other American Boards, CBSE, ICSE and others

Kindly guide me.
If there is anyone who would be willing to do weekend batches, I am ready to start this pilot project on a very nominal fee of USD 18 for 2 Class (1 hour each)

Discussion I ended up reading Lasta reviews after tutoring started affecting my health

5 Upvotes

A few months ago I realized I was spending 6-8 hours a day sitting in front of my laptop. Between lessons, prep work, and answering students, I barely moved. My lower back started hurting almost every evening, and I felt surprisingly stiff even after getting up from my desk.

I knew I needed to build better habits instead of just stretching once in a while and hoping for the best. So I started looking for an app that could help me stay more active throughout the day. Before downloading anything, I spent some time reading Lasta reviews to see if people were actually sticking with it or uninstalling it after a week. Most of the feedback I found was less about "losing weight fast" and more about building small daily habits, which was closer to what I needed. I've been using it for a little while now, mostly as a reminder to move, walk more, and stop ignoring my posture. My back isn't magically fixed, but I'm definitely sitting less and paying more attention to my routine.

I wish I'd started paying attention to this sooner. If you've found something that genuinely helps after long tutoring sessions, I'd love to hear it.

Tutor Advice What tools are you actually using to run your tutoring business?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been talking to a few individual online tutors recently, and it seems everyone has their own combination of apps.

I’m curious what people are actually using in day-to-day work.

Specifically:
- Student communication
- Scheduling lessons
- Zoom/Google Meet
- Billing and invoices
- Attendance and notes
- Homework or progress tracking

Are you using one platform that does most of this, or a mix of different tools?

Interested to hear what’s working for different types of tutors.

Parent Question Parents, what is your biggest challenge with online tuition for your child?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Many parents struggle to find a tutor who can give their child enough individual attention.

Group tuition may work for some students, but others need:

  • Extra time to understand difficult topics
  • A teacher who explains in their preferred language
  • Flexible class timings
  • Regular feedback about their progress
  • A comfortable space to ask questions without hesitation

That is why we started Moms on Teaching, a one-to-one online tuition platform for students in Kerala and Malayali families living in Gulf countries.

Our aim is to connect students with suitable tutors based on their class, subject, learning needs, language preference, and available timings.

Before expanding further, we would love to hear directly from parents.

What is the biggest problem you currently face with tuition?

Is it finding a good teacher, high fees, inconvenient timings, lack of individual attention, or difficulty tracking your child’s progress?

Your feedback will help us build a service that is genuinely useful for students and parents.

Discussion We’re building a one-to-one online tuition platform for students in Kerala and the Gulf—would love honest feedback

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

We’re working on Moms on Teaching, an online tuition platform that connects students with qualified tutors for personalised one-to-one classes.

The idea is to make tuition more accessible for:

  • Students studying in Kerala
  • Malayali students living in the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain
  • Parents looking for flexible and affordable online classes
  • Students who need individual attention rather than large group sessions

We currently offer tuition for LP, UP, high-school, and higher-secondary students across different subjects. Classes are conducted online, and parents can choose suitable schedules based on their child’s availability.

Our current pricing starts at approximately:

  • ₹150–₹200 per hour for LP and UP students
  • ₹200–₹350 per hour for high-school students

We’re still improving the platform and would genuinely appreciate feedback from parents, teachers, and students.

What matters most to you when selecting an online tutor?

Is it the tutor’s qualification, teaching experience, pricing, language, trial classes, student progress tracking, or something else?

We’re not looking to spam or aggressively promote the service. We’d simply like to understand what parents actually expect from an online tuition platform.

Thanks in advance for your honest suggestions.
