Teachers should avoid this website like the plague. It is a cattle Market where the teachers are the cattle, who have to pay for the privilege of contacting potential so-called students who mostly don't even have the good manners to reply. The website encourages an auction-like situation where teachers have to pay more and more exorbitant prices to contact students who may not even be genuine.
What students there may exist are often quite insincere and unclear about their needs and because they mostly do not have to pay they have very unrealistic expectations and a careless and insincere attitude towards finding a teacher.
I have seen ridiculous requests from students for example a high school student needing help with physics asking for a teacher with at least a PhD qualification in physics and offering them some ridiculous sum such as $5 an hour!
This dreadful website has some nice sounding words to try to convey the idea of being a professional mediator of teachers and students but the reality is it is a money making machine for itself exploiting teachers using insincere and possibly non-existent students to boost their coffers!
