👋 Hi! A few of you are new here so I thought I'd introduce myself ☺️
I'm Lisa (hehe). I'm in my early 30s, though I'm often told I look like I'm in my young 20s (and I never get sick of hearing this 😂).
I started tutoring English when I was 19, just after high school. Who knew that I'd still be in the tutoring business TWELVE+ years later? mind blown
Tutoring was SO incredibly rewarding and fulfilling that I moved into it full-time when I was 24. I fell in love with tutoring so much that I ended up quitting my career as a pharmacist after only 11 months on the job. Skip ahead to 3 months later, I was fully booked out and was already rejecting new students who had been referred to me.
I felt so bad for saying 'no' that I ended up hiring my first tutor. Within 6 months, my team had grown to 5 tutors, and within a couple of years, I had 50+ tutors on my team!
It's been a rollercoaster of a journey. I've been awarded Anthill 30under30, Victorian Younger Achievers Finalist, spoken at TEDx, and been blessed with so much more.
Not going to lie, business is HARD. That's why I want to share my learnings and experiences with you, because I wish I had a tutor mentor who could accelerate my path to success, rather than struggling through all the mistakes I made during my journey. Lisa's Study Guides, my tuition and study guide business has made 1 million+ over the last 2 years, and I've just started my second business, Tutorboss, helping tutoring business owners build and scale their businesses.

Love to see...
You treat tutors as Humans...
Not machines...🧡
yay thanks for the comment :)!
This was such an insightful video! I've done a fair amount of tutoring before both through a high school and just for friends/family and one of my goals for 2023 is to really lean into it and begin my own business. I feel like you hear a lot about what you should do, and not always about what NOT to do - so thank you! 💓😁
This video is of exceptional quality. You are simply playing to a very niche audience.
You deserve more viewership than youll get.
Great information video.. thanks for sharing
Thanks Lisa !
Tutor mentor is super smart! Thank you for all the fun tips :)
Glad you think so!
Hey Lisa. As I consider starting my tutoring company, I intend to charge enough and focus on one thing. The hard part is choosing that one thing.
Hi, could you talk about the legal side of tutoring i.e insurance and the possibility of getting sued etc. Thanks.
Good to hear your perspective, excellent videos keep it up!
Much appreciated! ❤️
Great Information Lisa!
Thanks for watching!
Hi Lisa, Thanks for the great tips. Do you pay tutor for the training hours they take? if yes then how? and how much compared to tutoring hours?
Hello Madam thank you for the tips I've learned a lot. 🙂
You're welcome, I'm glad to hear you found this video helpful! :)
Not thinking about tutoring experience, knowing everything.
Hi, I just want to ask if you could explain how do you make money during school break and holidays?
Hey Lisa, I am trying to start up a tutor agency or business in Nigeria targeting markets in the UK and US
I’m 18 and I’m majoring in music education. I want to start tutoring but my schedule is very tight. Any advice for University students who want to start tutoring others?
Hi, great question! I can definitely relate to the difficulty of juggling your own schedule while tutoring. My free masterclass, 'The 3-Step Framework to a 6-Figure Tutoring Career' answers the question of how you can tutor in a way which suits your lifestyle. Check it out here: www.tutorboss.co/masterclass. All the best with your tutoring journey!
Laptop n mobile
I like your website design - what theme did you use? :)
Hi there! It's the Sunburst theme from Brand Up :)
But i didn't invest so much when started Tutoring agency
is exicte 1:1000 online tutoring !!
Your videos are super helpful. Thanks!
One thing that's on my mind - What employment contract/agreement is it best to employ tutors under? Contractor? Casual? Permanent? If I'm not certain on the number of hours I could give my tutors, I would think a casual contract would be best. Thanks
Hi Lachlan, thanks for your kind words! There's a number of different contract options available as you've outlined, so the main thing is to weigh up which is most suitable for your business specifically! Also, as part of next week's video I do talk about different financial structures for tutoring businesses - I think it'll help to further answer your question. Keep an eye out! :)
Do you have international students? If so how do you receive payment?
Sometimes! Online through our tutor management platform :)
Wow. nice video. i am an freelance online math tutor. do u know of any certifications one can take to become a certified tutor?
Hi Morgan! Thanks for your question. In my experience, prospective students tend to be more interested in what exactly you can offer them (e.g. your tutoring style, subject knowledge and/or any past student successes), rather than if you have certifications. However, if you are keen to become certified, have a look online to see if there are any certificates/courses offered on the web or near you! Hope this helps :)
@@LisaTran ol thanks..I had actually checked before . I was hoping there are a few you could recommend.
But thanks for letting me know
@@Morgan00111 Greetings from Taipei, Taiwan! Just a guess: Udemy or some of those other online course companies might have something for you. They do seem to have a bit of everything. If you find something, please say something.
"If you are not making more than $75k per year you do not have to pay GST"
You don't have to register, you still have to pay it, you always have to pay taxes. If in doubt, check with an accountant.
You have to pay company tax of 25% but you don't have to also charge GST until you hit the 75k threshold
