I work for Smarthinking (also as a writing tutor), and it only pays $12/hour if you have a Ph.D. If you have a Master’s degree, $11/hour; a Bachelor’s, $10/hour.
For what it’s worth, they are reliable in supplying work hours, which is nice, and the work isn’t bad.
ETA: Although they advertise and accept applications year-round, I have a suspicion that they hire/train new people only during the summer. I have only extremely limited data on this point (myself and one other person who both applied in the fall to be hired in May), but it seems worth mentioning as a possibility to be aware of. Alejandro1, what was your experience?

It was my wife who worked for them for some time she was unemployed immediately after getting her PhD. She was hired and trained in the summer, too.
