Is There a Commission Charged by RMT to Teach on Our Platform?

Commission percentage will be revealed to you on the Prices screen after registration.

The commission includes group classes, and the teacher is paid for every student enrolled in the group class. The commission goes towards maintaining the platform, advertising, marketing, and creating study materials. The Teacher Rate is set by the teacher and can be changed at any time.

Understanding the Commission Structure

Yes, Russian Math Tutors charges a commission on all lessons taught through the platform. This commission-based model allows teachers to join the platform free of charge without any upfront costs, subscription fees, or monthly charges. You only pay a percentage when you successfully earn income from teaching lessons.

How the Commission Works

The commission applies to all types of lessons conducted on the platform, including both one-on-one private lessons and group classes. For group classes specifically, teachers receive payment for each individual student enrolled in the class, and the commission is calculated on the total earnings from all students in that group. This means group classes can be particularly profitable for teachers as they earn from multiple students simultaneously.

What Does the Commission Cover?

The platform commission covers a comprehensive range of services and benefits that support your teaching business:

• Platform Maintenance: Ongoing technical support, server infrastructure, and continuous platform improvements to ensure smooth operation of the virtual classroom and all features
• Marketing and Advertising: Professional marketing campaigns to attract new students, search engine optimization (SEO), and promotional activities that bring students to the platform
• Student Acquisition: The platform handles all student recruitment, so you don't need to spend your own time or money finding students
• Payment Processing: Secure payment collection, processing of credit cards and PayPal, and automatic handling of all financial transactions
• Study Materials: Access to teaching resources, Russian Math curriculum materials, and educational content to support your lessons
• Virtual Classroom: Full-featured interactive whiteboard, video conferencing, file sharing capabilities, and all the tools you need to conduct effective online lessons
