About the Opportunity
We're dedicated to bridging the early-learning gap for students in grades K - 8 by combining the expertise of committed tutors with proven technology. Our mission is to empower students with the essential reading and math skills crucial for their academic success. With a presence in school districts across 35 states, we're entrusted by educators to support students who need it most. Utilizing a learning platform grounded in over 30 years of research and outcomes, coupled with high-frequency tutoring, we aim to propel schools towards unparalleled academic achievements. About the Role We're seeking passionate and equity-minded educators to join our tutoring community as independent contractors. As a tutor, you'll play a pivotal role in closing the early-learning gap, engaging directly with K - 8 students in live, synchronous, online tutoring sessions. We prioritize diversity and aim to build a team of tutors that reflects the rich tapestry of students we serve. You'll facilitate online reading or math sessions for small groups of 1 - 4 students. You'll utilize our comprehensive learning platform and curriculum, guiding you through lessons and providing real-time insights into student performance. Building consistent relationships with the same students each week fosters an environment conducive to student learning and growth. Who You Are You're deeply passionate about nurturing all types of learners, finding joy in witnessing the spark of understanding when a student masters a new concept. Your ability to tailor teaching methods to accommodate various learning styles and needs is exceptional, and you consider it a privilege to be present in your students' lives. Your strength lies in building meaningful connections with students from diverse backgrounds, valuing and incorporating their cultural assets, knowledge, and experiences into tutoring sessions. Challenges are met with a growth mindset; you're resourceful, flexible, and resilient in navigating obstacles and setbacks, whether they be technical glitches or academic hurdles. An engaging and dynamic educator, you possess the knack for re-engaging students who may become disinterested or stuck during lessons. Celebrating students' progress and empowering them to build on their strengths is at the core of your teaching philosophy. Technologically savvy, you're adept at leveraging technology to enhance learning experiences. While not necessarily an IT expert, you're comfortable troubleshooting tech issues and navigating multiple platforms simultaneously.
