I have a hard time with tutoring as it is because most students (at least where I'm getting them) just want the work done for them and typically come to you last moment.

And you want to earn money for rent. You don’t need to move the needle of academic achievement for a generation.

If they come to you with money in hand and are just a little intellectually lazy or have worse time management than you’d like, you can still make a mutually beneficial trade.

Only offering tutoring to the most motivated students with the best time management skills is a self-limiting market.
