If you don't have anything in hand than only go there. It's like temporary low paying government job with lots of hardwork. If you are there with them they are happy, once you ask for resign, they will put all the work on your head.

As a tutor, finding a platform that truly values your time and effort is crucial. I left my previous company because of frequent last-minute cancellations without any compensation. Here, there's a fair cancellation policy that ensures my time is respected, giving me the stability I had been seeking.

However, there are a couple of areas that could use improvements. I believe there should be a fee for inquiries as weel, not for confirmed sessions.
