In response to those who wonder about working for TUTORABC as a consultant. I have been working for them for several years now (am looking for other options) and here is my review of this company:

The main reason for working for this company as an online consultant would be the convenience of working from home and having some flexibiilty in setting a work schedule.

However, I have never worked for a worse company than this when it comes to valuing its employees.

In the time I have worked for this company:
- I have not received any personal acknowledgement for my accomplishments, except form letters for achieving higher numbers of sessions taught.
- The company pays fast-food worker wages, but wants native speakers of English, preferably professionals who are willing to work for a low base rate, but receive "bonuses" based on the whims and fancies of the students, who can give you any rating they want, without explanation. This equals a professional working for tips.
- The company does not give annual wage increases nor any other benefits, whether regular or performance-based.
- They are constanty adding more and more conditions and requirements for their consultants with no corresponding compensation (including now having to work a minimum number of hours on the weekends and during peak hours).
-They do not provide any forums or means of establishing contact with other consultants (I suspect because they do not want to facilitate an uprising or mass resignation). Each consultant is entirely isolated from management and colleagues.

I would not recommend this company to anyone who considers him/herself a valuable, experienced professional. You will not be appreciated for what you are!
