Suggestions: You might email your profile link (URL) to some friends and family and ask them for some suggestions about making your profile more impressive. Or you could read some tips from TM's Tutor FAQs. Everyone sees things differently. You might even consider asking Tutoring Match to supply some answers to these questions. As one of our 70+ benefits, we provide 1-on-1 profile and marketing tips, guidance, suggestions and advice to every paid member.
While we can attract thousands of people to our site every month, it will be the quality of each tutor profile (and tutor) that eventually attracts more visitors and requests to our site. You can attract more requests and matches with a second chance at a first impression.
Hope these suggestions prove useful to you.
