- Bilingual (Spanish/English) a strong plus — **premium rates available** for bilingual matches
### Pay
**$25–$35+ per hour**, based on your credentials, specialization, and the needs of the student you're matched with. Most roles fall in the $25–$35+ range; higher rates apply for credentialed or specialized tutors, higher-need cases, and bilingual (Spanish/English) matches.
