Start tutoring
Step by step

From sign-up to first payout

Six steps take you from a new profile to a paid tutor with a growing reputation.

  1. Step 01

    Create your tutor profile

    Tell learners who you are. Add your subjects, experience, qualifications, and an intro video. Verified profiles win more bookings.

  2. Step 02

    Set your rates and availability

    You decide your hourly rate and the hours you work. Offer 1-on-1 sessions, group classes, or both. Update availability any time.

  3. Step 03

    Get booked automatically

    Learners find you in search, book an open slot, and pay up front. Our scheduling engine handles time zones and reminders for you.

  4. Step 04

    Teach in the built-in classroom

    Run sessions with built-in video, screen share, and a shared whiteboard — no extra software, no shared personal links.

  5. Step 05

    Get paid on schedule

    Earnings are tracked in your dashboard and paid out automatically. Transparent fees mean you always know what you take home.

  6. Step 06

    Grow with reviews

    Strong sessions earn ratings and reviews that build your reputation and push you higher in search — so good work compounds.

FAQs

Common questions

What do I need to start tutoring?
A verified profile, the subjects you want to teach, a device with a camera and microphone, and a stable internet connection. No teaching certificate is required, though qualifications help you win bookings.
How do I set my rate?
You set your own hourly rate when you create your profile and can change it at any time. Many tutors start lower to gather reviews, then raise their rate as demand grows.
When and how do I get paid?
Learners pay when they book. Your earnings accrue in your dashboard and are paid out on a regular schedule via the payout method you connect. Platform fees are shown transparently before every payout.
Do I need my own video software?
No. The classroom — video, screen share, and a shared whiteboard — is built into Skolena. You never share a personal meeting link with a learner.
Can I offer group sessions?
Yes. You can run 1-on-1 sessions, group classes, or both, and set a separate rate for each format.
