Tutors are always in demand. They're needed to help students keep up with material presented in class as well as stimulate the minds of gifted students. Sometimes people even need tutors to help them pass important examinations or prepare for advanced education. Starting a private tutoring business will take planning, but you can typically start out on a budget and gradually expand your business over time. You may eventually get so much business you have to hire other tutors to help you meet the demand.
