Wikipedia’s definition of a tutor:

A tutor, formally also called an academic tutor, is a person who provides assistance or tutelage to one or more people on certain subject areas or skills. The tutor spends a few hours on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to transfer their expertise on the topic or skill to the student.

Frequently, remote teachers may also work as remote tutors outside of their normal working hours to supplement their income. This can make them both teacher and tutor at the same time.

How much money does a Remote Tutor make?

The salaries of remote tutors vary based on many factors, such as experience, qualifications, the subject they teach, etc.

There seem to be more part-time job openings for remote tutors than there are full-time. For that reason, we will focus here on the average pay per hour rather than an annual salary.

As of this writing, Indeed lists these average salary numbers for a Remote Tutor:

Your annual salary will then also depend on whether you decide to work part-time or full-time.
