Does anyone create content/resources for tutor websites

Someone suggested tutor4u as a good place to earn some cash by creating content. I’ve just finished a MSc in psychology. Does anyone know anything about this sort of thing? Or do anything else that uses your academic knowledge in a similar way?

This forum is mostly for people working in university teaching and research. I'd think most of us would be on ethically shaky ground doing anything like this - it looks as if it's an essay mill/has an essay mill element?

Please don't do that. It encourages students to copy the material and present it as their own. I've had more than one plagiarism referral to do this year where the student has cut and pasted from tutor2u.com.

Hi, I’m not sure that tutor4u is an essay mill. One of my tutors recommended it as she apparently created content for them whilst doing her PhD.

PhD students aren't always the model of good contact, unfortunately!

If you're 'creating content' for them, and they're paying for it, they're buying an unfair advantage (or, possibly, trying to buy an unfair advantage and ending up with a shonky product).

Even if you mean well, I think it's not fair on students.
