    ALL POSITIONS ARE IN-PERSON AND CONTRACTOR POSITIONS

    For the past 10 years, TEACH has been supporting students 1-on-1 and in small group settings with exceptional academic, test prep, and enrichment lessons. Our strong connections to local schools and non-profit organizations offer unique opportunities for tutor contractors to be classroom instructors in addition to providing local families with 1-on-1 support. At TEACH we believe tutoring can be a bridge that helps make content more accessible for all students.

    We are looking for dedicated and enthusiastic educators who are ready to dismantle the educational barriers that students and families face and open up educational opportunities through tutoring.

    Tutors can make their schedules and are independent contractors with TEACH. There is no minimum hour requirement.

Availability during school hours (8:30am - 3:30pm) and/or after school hours (2:30-5pm) is highly desirable for small group instructional, classroom instructional, and test prep opportunities.
