I am in need of teachers and tutors who would like to earn extra money. One of my tutors was on JET and she will be leaving Columbus for graduate school. She recently told me that her time at TBOSL was extremely helpful for her to get acclimated to life in the US. The job pays either $15/hour or $22.50 and hour depending on if the lesson came from a textbook that we use or was something that you created.
