Entrevista
I took the mock interview and was rejected. I applied in ESL and the interviewer asked me to give an example of a sentence using a verb in the 13th tense and an adverb clause answering the question "when". This was the first question off the bat, and she moved on when I could not respond immediately. The next question was about comparative and superlative adjectives. The topic was easier, but again, I was expected to answer this question very quickly without any materials or resources. If I was teaching or tutoring in real life, I would always double check my knowledge against textbooks or reliable online resources. Tutor.com expects tutors to have all or the knowledge in their heads and recite it immediately. This kind of tutoring might be for some people, but I imagine there are tutors giving out lots of wrong answers due to the pressure of answering quickly.

The interview process at Tutor.com was straightforward. First, I had to complete at least one subject exam that was on demand, which took me a few days. Once I passed, the rest of the process was smooth and simple, including setting up my profile and waiting for approval to start working.

It was a quick and easy interview process but the job description made it seem more intense than it actually was, which was relieving but also a little annoying because it was misleading.

One question they asked is how I would navigate teaching a student who was struggling with a concept.

The interview tested technical skills, but primarily tested communication/customer service skills. Also tested how well I could solve problems, or alter teaching strategies if one wasn’t working. The interviewer was very nice and complimented me when I did things well, and offered different approaches I could also take.
