Why tutors choose us
Built around your clinical schedule
Set your own rate
You decide what your time is worth. Adjust anytime. No ceiling — the market sets it. Most tutors charge $40–$60/hr.
You control your calendar
Block off clerkships, exams, rotations. Students only see slots you explicitly open.
Automatic payments
Payment collected at booking, released to you within 24 hours of the session. No invoicing.
Zero admin work
Booking, reminders, receipts — all handled. You just show up and teach.
No minimum commitment
One session a week or twenty. Pause anytime. No quota, no penalty.
Cancellation protection
Students can cancel free up to 24h before. Late cancellations still compensate you — your time is never wasted.

David C.
M3 · Creighton
