Where can tutors work?

As a tutor, you can find work in schools, from elementary education through institutions of higher education. Many K-12 schools rely on tutors to provide extra support for struggling students, while universities often have tutoring centers where students make appointments to get extra help. You can also work for private tutoring companies and teach students of all levels in subjects ranging from phonics to standardized test prep, in person or online. Some local governments pay tutors to work with at-risk youth, or you may opt to work as a freelance tutor, seeking your own clients through marketing and advertising.
