Wyzant Terminated relationship for no reason. When asked if it was based on my age Wyzant wrote nonsensical statement and never answered question. Internet
This is an organization that certifies individual as being qualified to tutor bases solely on a test that the administer online. Their tutors often charge ridiculously low rates when compared to those of qualified tutors.
I am a college professor who teaches mathematics. I am going to express my optinion of why Wyzant is a new online service that causes great harm.
Parents of students often make the decision to hire a tutor based on the low rates they see on Wyzant as compared to those of qualified tutors. People tend to forget, when seeing the low rates that are offered, that they may be hiring someone who cannot help their student. By the time they discover their error, e.g. when a student is taking the SAT, it is too late and the student has been irreparably harmed. The parent will be angry, but the damage has been done. This is a company that has already harmed and will continue to harm students. Obviously the parent cannot sue the company but knows what has occurred.
