Job description

High School Math & Science Teachers Wanted for Fun After-School Tutoring!

Sylvan Learning Center is looking for fun, dedicated math teachers and math tutors to help and inspire students. We are currently looking for educators who have a strong understanding of Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II, and Pre-Calculus, Statistics, Calculus, and high-school sciences are a plus.

As a Sylvan math tutor, you will be tasked with working with students of all ages. While your primary focus will be helping high school students with their upper-level math homework, you may occasionally be called upon to work with late-elementary and middle school students with our pre-built curriculums. These are easy-to-teach, pre-planned lessons that involve explaining a topic to a student, and then having the student work independently using what they just learned. You will also play a key role in motivating and connecting with each student, so they feel inspired to learn.

• If you enjoy working with and inspiring students, this is the job for you. (We want you to be happy here!)
• Each student will typically ask questions about their classwork or homework for the day. Sometimes they will need help preparing for a test
• For some students, you will use pre-planned lessons. They are straightforward, easy to manage, and fun to teach
• Teach students in a small group setting. There will be no more than 3 students per teacher.
• Most teachers choose to work 2-5 days/week
• This is NOT a remote position

Job Requirements

• Four year degree required in a discipline requiring 3 or more years of college level math
• Advanced knowledge and familiarity with teacher or tutoring in the areas of Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry and Trigonometry, Calculus
• Minimum of one or two years teaching or tutoring experience preferred
• Ability to multi-task
• Knowledge of general office equipment such as copiers, printers, and office phones
• Knowledge of tablet computers preferred

Benefits

• Come in, work for a couple of hours, and leave happy with no additional work to take home!

• Happy, understanding, and caring management. You will love working here!
