Working as an online nursing tutor

Published

Hello All,

I have been thinking of getting some type of a side job that I could do from home. (I am currently a PMHNP full time). I like teaching students and have some experience with it and thought that online nursing tutoring may be a good option. Does anyone have any experience with this and would like to share some insight into what it's like? I'm curious about the different companies that offer it and what the pay/expectations/time commitments of each are.

Thanks for any help.

Have you considered applying to be online faculty (adjunct) at a university?

I have, and I think the commitment in being an actual faculty member, be it online or in-person, would be too much for me right now.

Interesting. I had no idea this was a thing. I have nothing pertinent to add but am glad you brought it up. I am curious now too.

I looked into it briefly. The pay was too little for me to consider it. I forget exactly what it was now... maybe 22 an hour or something close to that.

Have you ever thought of freelance writing instead of tutoring?
