No, but it’s a bonus. We welcome passionate tutors from all backgrounds—graduates, experienced tutors, or professionals with subject-matter expertise. MOE/NIE credentials will be highlighted on your profile.
Can I choose my own rates?
Yes! You’re free to set your hourly rates. Zipply provides a market rate guide to help you stay competitive.
