Tutoring work?

[mindutopia]

If you do freelance tutoring at secondary/college/university level, where do you advertise for clients?

I’m an academic who is thinking of moving out of academia to have a bit of a break. I am in a good position to do some tutoring but it’s been a decade since I last did any. 😬 Where can I advertise?

not much idea. when I've got tutors for my kids 11+ etc, I've seen adverts for university level tutors on the same sites (e.g. tutorful). but I think the work is pretty intermittent if you aren't tutoring a popular thing like 11+ or GCSE.

I tutor key stages 2 to 4
The best things are putting cards in local newsagents and a good website ( doesn't need to be fancy) plus signing up to all the free yell and 118 type listings
Be advised though, you are unlikely to make anything like your salary in academia.

I tutor undergraduate and masters students via The Profs. I don't take many students - but it could be possible to make a FT job out of it if you built up the clientele (if I did it would be more than my salaried academic job - and I might do that in future). There's a lot of work at this level if you can work online. Does depend on subject too though. They also have a sister site, Spires, which is more for individuals to list services rather than being centrally managed. Once you get some good reviews etc it builds up.
