PRLog -- Thousands of teachers are out of work and are looking for creative ways to earn income. Time-strapped, budget-constrained parents are desperate to get their kids help with their studies, but don’t have time or resources to help them. How do these students find available teachers? How do these teachers find students?
Come NextGuru.com…
connecting two groups of people who need and can help each other tremendously. For teachers, private tutoring offers great flexibility to set their schedules, take on other part-time or seasonal jobs, and be available for classroom teaching jobs when they open up. For students, one-on-one instruction is highly valuable, virtually non-existent in today’s public school classrooms, and difficult to afford through large tutoring centers or agency-based programs that need to cover overhead costs.
Enabling this difficult-to-
find connection is how NextGuru.com is creating new jobs – one student at a time… the 3rd grader struggling in reading & writing, but just not far enough behind to qualify for public assistance… the high school student who needs help preparing for college entrance exams… the 55-year-old who always wanted to learn the piano but just never found the time… These are folks who wouldn’t have walked into a tutoring center or a music studio. Yet by connecting them with private independent instructors in their local area, NextGuru.com has opened up a whole new set of choices for students… and teaching job opportunities have been created.
Says Chief Mom Officer Jenny Chang, “Every day, connections are made… and receiving feedback about how much difference a tutor has made to a family is the most rewarding part of this work.” So if you are ready make that next guru connection, come be a part of this new venture at
