<p>Do recruited athletes (like football or hockey players) get any special benefits that we normal students don’t? I heard they all get private tutors… is there any chance we can be hired as private tutors for them? Haha…</p>
<p>i know someone on the track team (not recruited, a walk on) but as an athlete she has something called “training table” where they really make sure you don’t flunk out of school. it sounds kind of like tutoring so that may be what you’ve heard.</p>
<p>Yes, there’s frequently job postings on the student employment website from the athletic department looking for tutors.</p>
<p>How much do they pay? I’d love to do something like this!</p>
<p>$9-12/hour. If you want to make a career out of it make sure to volunteer in the department as well, there is a need for academic program coordinators in sports.</p>
