I've tried contacting school guidance departments, advertising on Craigslist and in print newspapers, posting flyers, and offering referral bonuses. Schools are uncooperative. Everything else works a little, nothing works well: my schedule is not full. My current students are generally pleased and their grades do improve. I just can't seem to compete in the marketplace with all the loud, expensive voices.

The best way to recruit students is not for the students to recruit themselves but for you to convince the parents. They'll be the ones that will have to pay for the tutoring and at the same time be the ones concerned over their child's grade. What you need is to make yourself known and available. Don't always focus on targeting schools directly........instead, have your current students parents recommend you to others. They most likely know other families and as long as they're involved you can drop hints. I dont know the kind of ppl that you work with so how you bring up the situation is your own affair, it's better to approach the topic in a way where it's less directs and becomes more subconcious. Try expressing your concerns and see if you get sympathies.
