I regularly tutor people in programming and act as a helpdesk, am considered a good tutor/helpdesk, and I would never offer my tutoring/helpdesk services at that puny rate.
I absolutely love the idea, but you NEED to let the tutors set their own rate. Anyone want to build such a site, possibly working with me? I own "software-shaman.com" and have been meaning to set it up for something like this, but haven't felt any urgency yet.
EDIT: Now I also have programmer-helpdesk.com (and both w/o hyphens)
- breck 17y agoThanks for the feedback. We limit it to a 30min-2hr shifts. My hope is people will do a quick 30min-1hr help session, and then if it's a good fit continue to work together (offsite). The idea here is to speed up the initial intro period. > You may not use WageMachine to find workers and then conduct the transaction off site, unless you pay them at least their "Normal Rate".
- jey 17y agoI don't see how that would be worth the trouble to a good tutor.

- nedwin 17y agoI'm looking for a Python / Django tutor at the moment and would love a system where I can choose and change the types of tutelage as I go along. A $/hour scale is going to be the easiest way for me to ascertain the skill/knowledge/experience of the tutor. Initially I'd be happy with someone outside the US - hell, I might even continue with someone from outside the English speaking world - but having the variable would be nice.
