Backed by Mechanism Ventures, we are an ambitious startup building a team of elite educators who share our vision and are ready to create something big and impactful with us. Our founding team has a track record of building multiple $100M+ revenue companies, has an extensive background in education, and we are looking for additional lifelong learners who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of students.

What we offer all of our tutors:
  • Free access to our scheduling system & Lessonspace
  • High quality leads
  • Administrative support dedicated to your success
  • Scheduling autonomy
  • Flexible hours

Tutoring at Learner involves providing one-on-one instruction to students in a specific subject(s) or academic area. While we do have high demand for Geometry tutors, please note we are seeking tutors who can diversify into other subjects (such as Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Trigonometry, etc) to optimize their schedule.



The tutor’s primary responsibilities include:
  • Professional and timely communication with Learner, students, and clients.
  • Assessing students’ current understanding of the subject matter.
  • Developing and implementing lesson plans that address students’ individual needs and learning styles.
  • Delivering clear and engaging instruction to students.
  • Monitoring students’ progress and providing feedback and support.
  • Collaborating with parents, teachers (when appropriate), and other stakeholders to ensure student success.
  • Managing your schedule to accommodate your student’s needs.

  • Passionate about helping students achieve their educational goals.
  • Able to work independently, demonstrating strong initiative and resourcefulness in delivering effective tutoring
  • Developing and implementing lesson plans that address students’ individual needs, materials, and learning styles.
  • Flexible and able to explain material in multiple ways to ensure the student understands.
  • Tech-savvy and able to utilize the tools necessary to conduct successful sessions.
  • Engaging, fun, and having the ability to connect with students.
  • Motivating and inspiring students to become lifelong learners.
  • Most of all, patient. Our students need tutors who will be empathetic toward their struggles.

  • Ability to manage time effectively

Compensation
$25 per hour


Time Commitment
This is a freelance role starting at approximately 10 hours per week and your availability must include nights and weekends. 

While we do work with students across all time zones and internationally, our core need for the foreseeable future is for tutors who have (A) at least 10-15 hours of aggregate weekly availability and (B) 70% of those hours available over the range of Monday-Thursday, between the hours of 3p-10p Eastern Time. By declaring availability in those specific peak hours, you maximize your earning potential with consistent, high-demand hours and can enjoy a more predictable & stable work schedule.

Communication Commitment
Our business runs on email and the system works best when tutors check their emails every 2-4 hours. We expect tutors to communicate with the admin team at Learner and their clients in a timely and professional manner.

Location:
This is a fully remote position. We operate as a distributed team and can work from anywhere.
