I wanna tutor Russian, which I'm a native speaker of, however I'm not a teacher so I don't know where to start in regards to materials, resources and the whole way of doing it. How would I go about tutoring kids? I could get illustrated books and this and that, but what kinda program do I need to develop? What other sources can I use? What about adults?

First, you would have to find out if there is a demand. Do any schools or colleges near you offer Russian as a subject? If so, contact the teacher there for suggestions.

There are also a bunch of new online tutoring services that are popping up left and right. Seems like the industry is moving to web cam based tutoring. Probably a small sector of the market at present, but worth checking out. Search google for online tutoring companies/websites.

True, however one word of caution: I've seen a couple such sites that seem to be set up like dating sites where, in order for either the tutor or student to contact each other directly, you must pay some sort of fee. Most of these sites involve fees, whether it's for the tutor to post their services, the student to browse through available tutors, or both. It could be an option further down the line if you are successful want to further branch out
