A curated network of independent educators supporting high-intent families in your neighborhood. You choose your schedule, your students, and your experience level — we handle everything else.
No cold outreach, no bidding. We match high-intent families directly to your profile.
Fast, transparent payouts. You see exactly what you earn after every session.
You choose your days, neighborhoods, and which introductions to accept.
Refer a tutor who joins and completes their first paid package — earn $50. Campus ambassadors earn ongoing commissions.
Every tutor selects one of three experience levels. Each level has its own payout percentage applied to the base rate for your ZIP code — ensuring fairness, transparency, and consistent expectations for families.
You always choose your own level. An optional AI-suggested tier is provided based on your credentials — it is never required.
Every ZIP code has three distinct base prices — one for each experience level. Rates reflect local demand, family expectations, and the academic support requested in that neighborhood.
Advanced subjects (AP, IB, SHSAT, SAT, languages) carry a small modifier that increases the base rate to reflect preparation and expertise.
Because each ZIP produces three base prices, you always know exactly what you earn — and families always see a consistent, neighborhood-aligned rate.
We handle the parts that slow most independent tutors down. You focus entirely on teaching.
We identify families whose goals, schedule, and ZIP code match your profile. You receive an introduction — you decide whether to accept it.
Xmission covers your background check through Certn, our FCRA-compliant screening partner. There is nothing to pay before your first session. A one-time fee of $13.99 is deducted from your first package payout — it never recurs.
Payments processed automatically after each session. You see your earnings, your payout schedule, and your invoice history in one place.
After each session, submit a short update. Our system generates a polished parent brief automatically — no writing required from you.
Set your available days, times, and neighborhoods. Accept or decline any introduction. Your practice, your terms.
Your Xmission profile displays a Certn Verified badge — confirming you have independently passed a national criminal check, sex offender registry search, SSN trace, and global watchlist screening. Families see this before the first introduction.
A straightforward, low-friction process designed to get you working with families as quickly as possible.
