The agency and tutor coordinate on the work, with the tutor focusing on teaching.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"diff\">How it differs from going solo<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an independent tutor, you manage everything yourself \u2014 finding work, agreeing terms, and delivering training. Under an agency, some of that coordination is shared with the agency, so the way you find and manage work can differ.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"expect\">What to expect<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exact arrangement \u2014 how work is assigned, how communication flows, and how earnings are handled \u2014 depends on your agreement with your agency. Clarify these details with your agency directly so you both have the same expectations.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faqs\">FAQs<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I have to work with an agency?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Many tutors work independently. Working under an agency is one option.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who decides how the arrangement works?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The specifics are set between you and your agency.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where can I get help?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For platform questions, contact <a href=\"mailto:support@tutorac.com\">support@tutorac.com<\/a>. For arrangement-specific questions, speak to your agency.<\/p>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related articles<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tutorac.com\/help-center\/2026\/06\/08\/joining-and-working-under-an-agency\/\">Joining and working under an agency<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tutorac.com\/help-center\/2026\/06\/08\/coordinating-with-your-agency\/\">Coordinating with your agency<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tutorac.com\/help-center\/2026\/06\/08\/managing-your-work-within-an-agency\/\">Managing your work within an agency<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n<p class=\"has-gray-color has-text-color has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Last updated: 8 June 2026<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some tutors work independently; others work under an agency.
