Test Prep Instructor - High School Math - TEACH

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 educational barriers that students and families face and open up educational opportunities through tutoring.  

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