A TutorZ Tutor

Well this afternoon while wallowing in my own problems of health, wealth, and the mysteries of the universe, an email dropped into my TutorZ box. It was from a new member of our ever growing army of tutors. Michael Quintal just wanted to let us know he has his first client from TutorZ.com and was pretty excited about it. He wrote:

 I am sending you this e-mail to thank you for being so patient in helping me to get started with your site.  I got my first student from your site as of yesterday, October 2, Tuesday.

 I met with him, gave him an explanation of rates, asked him about his language background and goals, and provided him with a mini-lesson.  He left and checked out  other schools and tutors, and called me three or four days later telling me of his decision to take lessons from me.

  He is a waiter who wants to have the edge on his competition by being able to accommodate French speakers who frequent the restaurant.  I am privileged to have a role in helping him to meet his goal, and I am thankful to you for providing a website that gives me the exposure to make this possible.

Michael

Well I don’t know how patient I was but I am fairly used to phone calls coming in with a touch of suspicion in the voice. Although, I would have to say Michael was one of the most gracious and warmer questioners of our service I have ever come across.

I think Michael is expressing that he had many questions before he was willing to become a member of the TutorZ growing legacy. As it turns out Michaels’ email is a perfect example to newer tutors on how to conduct your business and avoid misunderstandings and problems later. As you can see Michael laid everything out for the student and both parties’ knew what the expectations were.

I think how funny it is that I just wrote a blurb on testimonials a couple weeks ago and said that the phone calls I get are the real testimonials and Michaels was just one more satisfied customer. I mean really, the cost to find a tutor is ZERO to the student. The cost to the Tutor is “literally” a couple bucks, after they use up their free credits. Then it is up to the student and tutor to exchange their expectations on cost and time and material. All in all I’d say it’s quite a deal. Michael is one of our many hard working, detail oriented, tutor’s just waiting for the next opportunity to help a student or a professional achieve their goals.

If you would like to join Michael and get your tutoring skills presented to the growing list of students who come to our site, simply go to TutorZ and create your profile.
