My Town Tutors is a website that connects parents with teachers who tutor. If you are a teacher who tutors, for a limited time, you can register for FREE by using promo code: usteachers. Teachers set the hourly and keep 100% of the fees! One of our teachers made $5,000 last year tutoring.
It is FREE for parents to search for a teacher in their area. Please help us find ONE MORE teacher who tutors!
The feedback from teachers has been incredible to our top 10 twitter accounts for teachers that we continued our list to include over 150 perfect twitter accounts for educators.
The only requirement for making our list is that the account receive a perfect score of 100 / 100 from tweet grader. For each account we have included the twitter name and the twitter profile.
To be consistent with our belief that local teachers are the best tutors, we are revising our list again. Over the next several weeks we will be listing the accounts geographically by state. (We will also have an international category too.)
It is our hope to be the #1 resource for teachers. We have been fortunate enough to have developed some close relationships with several members of the list. For each state we have listed the teachers association account first (even if the account does not have a perfect score.) We value all they do for the teaching profession and encourage all teachers to follow these great resources.
There is an open invitation to any educator on our list to write a guest blog for us now or in the future. Also visit our Connected Educators page!
