COURSE HERO allows those people who are looking for an online job, earn an income at home and have more free time. All you have to do is to answer questions from college students around the world with over 10 million students. Your role for this job is to be a text-based tutor. You will not conduct a one on one video class or audio class. All you have to do is type, type, and type. The good thing is you can even use your mobile as long as you have a stable internet connection.
REQUIREMENTS TO PREPARE:
It’s no hassle to prepare your documents because Course Hero will need only the following requirements:
1 copy of your Educational Background that includes your College Diploma, Teaching Certificates on your experiences (TESOL, TEFL, IELTS), Professional License I.d, and your Transcript of Records. If you are in College, you can upload a copy of your grades on that specific semester as proof that you are in College.
1 copy of any government-issued i.d and here are the following: SSS I.d, Philhealth, Passport I.d, PRC i.d, Student I.d (College)
1 copy of selfie holding your i.d

When you create an account make sure to write on your notes the correct email address, password and username so that you will not forget any information just in case you will accidentally log out of your account. There’s a possibility that they will create your username or they will suggest it in the box.
MASTERY OF THE SUBJECTS
The good thing about Course Hero is, it is open to all professions because you can choose your specialization of subjects. Since I am an English Teacher so I preferred English Writing and Literature. But you can choose as many as you want and the more you choose, the more questions will come unto you on its corresponding subjects. You just have to make sure that your answers are connected to the students’ questions.
FILLING IN THE INFORMATION
I would like you to follow the instructions carefully. You have to enter your complete name phone number and the country you are residing in. Be honest about your answers as they will reflect the documents that you submitted. There is a corner there where you have to describe your professional background and 1-2 paragraphs will do. Be mindful of your grammar and sentence structures.
3 QUESTIONS ON EDUCATIONAL AND PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND VERIFICATION
a. A resume or C.V is not accepted so provide a document according to what the company needs.
b. Submit a clear photo and personal information on your i.d
c. Your photo should be visible. Try to find a white background and wear professional attire
CHECK EMAIL FOR UPDATES
After submitting the requirements and filling in the form you have to check your inbox in the email address you registered. And this is what I received from them informing me to wait 5-7 working days for approval.
FINALLY! I PASSED!
It’s been a week I was waiting for the approval and glad to know that I successfully made it. It was an easy application as long as you will provide the correct requirements. You don’t have to undergo a demo, interview, or exam since this is an independent provider.
