I was a tutor. Earned a little and they reported unusual activity and permanently disabled my account before I could withdraw my earnings. Scammers.
Not paying tutors after work. Mistreating the tutors. Not recommended. Closing tutor accounts with no reasons.
Not worth what you pay, not even worth the time for the sign up process. Please do not waste your time and money on it.
Not worth the price. You pay but they have a time limit on the questions u ask every day. Not worth the price.
They deserve negative reviews... full of scams. If you work on this platform then be prepared to loose your hard earned money.
I get answers to my course questions from experienced tutors almost instantly. Using the product for over a year and very happy.
This is automatic renewal scam! They have been charging my card and will NOT refund your money. Be aware
Poor selection process for tutors with no actual validation of real-world qualifications. Don't bother.
Can't pull up review materials. Pages are blank. Customer service won't refund money. Don't use. Go to Chegg.
Never could find anything I was looking for. Other services like Chegg are one million times better, this is a ridiculous waste of money
Never go there. They steal your card information and charge you.
It is the worst website, all thieves
Banning tutors without proper warning, locking their earnings. Inconsistent policies. Cheating site for students
I joined Course Hero as an online tutor. After working for around 2 months, I answered more than 330 questions. Only 4 answers out of 330 answers were marked as unhelpful though answers provided according to me were correct. Course Hero has a policy of reviewing the unhelpful rated answers. So they rated 2 of my unhelpful answers and I recieved warning of submitting 'incomplete' and 'incorrect' answers. As I was confident with my answers, I raised ticket to re-check their quality review. Then I recieved a mail that my account has been revoked and I would not be able to further withdraw any payments for my written answers. I had around $305 in my account that were not paid to me (in my country this amount is enough to survive for 3 months). I lost my hard earned money and Course Hero is not even responding to my mails. On connecting with other tutors on social media I come to know Course Hero has a practice of revoking account of even good tutors after they have worked for 2-4 months and induct new ones.
On reading more about online tutoring, I come to know knot only the tutors but also students are scammed either by incorrect answers from tutors (that are inducted without any background checking) or by not receiving services they were expecting. I feel cheated having worked hard on the platform and not getting paid from them.
Whoever is reading my review, I have 2 points to make with my experience.
1. For tutors: Do not rely solely on tutoring platforms like Course Hero for your complete income as I was cheated for not getting paid.
2. For students: Do not build your concepts based on non interactive tutoring where you do not know about credibility of the tutor.
My concern not attended which I paid for and I haven't received my refund back
They are scammers absolutely

Scammed please help don't use this website, i finished all my life savings on this thing.
Please do not get a membership to this nonsense
I use it all the time to help study for my classes. My teachers aren't available to help me when I start doing my homework so this is really helpful.
This is the worst website I've ever been to, just to get an answer you have to pay nahhh man I do not recommend this website.
Trash, everything is hiding behind a paywall. Absolutely trash! Course that absolutely not helping with anything at all
I signed up for it, after one hour of use, I couldn't find any answers, only questions, and I was charged $39.99 for one hour of use. Total scam
Answer: Probably because students upload crappy content. If students uploaded more legit content, there would be less crappy documents to sift through. The study guides and literature reviews are legit though. And if you look, you'll find the right/helpful uploaded content.
