Even back then I was making $35 an hour doing private tutoring. I'm pretty sure Kumon offers about $20 now. Totally not worth it if you have a degree. They do charge families through the nose.
This is like a private chef applying to McDonald's and being appalled by the offered wage. Seriously, why did you even apply?
DP but come on. Not sure where PP applied but ten years ago DC's minimum wage was $12. For a candidate with a master's degree, you'd expect them to at least go a few bucks above minimum wage.

I applied because I didn't know they paid so little. Once I understood that, I said no thanks and found a better paying 2nd job.

Did you have a good experience? Did you work independently before or after? I am looking to compare before going back to independently tutoring.
