## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-26 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> The big split is marketplaces (they bring you students, take a cut) vs. agencies (they set your pay) vs. your own shop (you keep everything, but find your own students). Here's the order I'd actually go in:
> 
> ## Marketplaces where you set your own rate - start here
> 
> **1. Wyzant** - the best economics in US tutoring. You set your rate, and the platform takes 25%, dropping to 20% after you've earned $2,000. Most tutors charge $40-80/hr and net $30-64/hr. No forced discounting, no free first lesson. If you're US-based and tutor academic subjects or test prep, this is where I'd put my first profile. ([sidehusl.com](https://sidehusl.com/?p=7452), [blog.wyzant.com](https://blog.wyzant.com/?p=5223))
> 
> **2. Outschool** - if you can teach a small group rather than 1:1, this beats everything on hourly yield. You set class prices, Outschool keeps 30%, and because you're paid per student, a full class of 6-10 multiplies your rate. Reported $40-100/hr with a claimed $50 average. Best for K-12, enrichment, and anything you can package as a repeatable course.
