No Work No Pay

Being a private tutor does not guarantee me of having a fixed amount of money every month. The charge is high every meeting but during holidays no work no pay. I don't like the idea of this but i have no choice. Maybe I would just find another work that will give fix income.

Because you don't spend you entire day tutoring you have time to take additional work to have more income. Think of something else you could do part-time. Maybe you could offer special tutoring during holidays for students who need help catching up with their studies.

Well, there are a lot of bunch of people like you. They are in a No Work, No Pay basis. I have some men with this kind of scheme as they are contractual individuals. It is just so hard to keep them from going to work during holidays and few tasks available. They even sometimes beg for days of work. But of course, management won't want to have workers in a day doing nothing at all. Oh well, that is how life is. So better get a regular job with a fixed income and not a NO Work, No Pay policy. However, with tutoring, I think that is most of what is available though.

Hello Jaderamirez, I also tutor a few students and I agree that during holidays when no students come for tuition we get no pay. There is a solution to this situation. If you are good in drawing, painting, music or cooking, then you can start hobby classes during vacations. This will help you enhance your hobby and will also earn you money during vacations.

You can also try having several students to teach. But of course having a permanent source of income is also better. Good luck jade!

I think everyone is like you. :D. Nowadays, except you are a businessman with some good and responsible workers, your earning depends sharply on your working and capacity. One suggest is you can invest an amount of money in banks or some legit sites to obtain everyday intersest. Good luck

Well, dear friend, I understand perfectly what you want to tell. Just think of the fact that I find myself at the age of 37 years old, still unemployed! Of course in your case, if you do not have customers, you do not earn money. Perhaps you, like me, are dreaming the idea of ??having a permanent job in life. I must say that it is the dream of many people. Unfortunately, from what I can deduce, In these times of crisis, that to which we aim, it seems an impossible dream! We hope for a better future!

Maybe you can have a regular daytime job and keep your students for tutoring on days that you don't have work? I know we can all use the extra money, plus you might have already built up quite a set of students that prefer you to tutor them, it would be a bit of a waste if you will just let it go.

Don't worry, sometimes a holiday is good and can make you relaxed. But if the money your get is not enough for your life, maybe you can find other things or job to do when you are on holiday. It will fix up the work being a pivate tutor. Have a nice day!
