By tutoring students in the PSAT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests or ACT, as well as various secondary school subjects, our tutors have the unique opportunity to guide their students through some of high school's most difficult challenges. Since lessons are conducted in the students' homes, tutors must have access to reliable transportation. We are currently seeking tutors in Danbury and surrounding areas to work a minimum of 6-10 hours/week.

 

Qualifications:

Experience teaching, tutoring, counseling or coaching, a strong academic background, and high SAT, ACT, or GRE scores (95th percentile) in either the math or verbal sections. Completion of at least two years of college also required. Beyond that we're looking for outstanding role models who want to help high school students achieve, so excellent communication skills and the ability to engage a student's attention are a must.

Successful candidates are invited to our Tutor Development Program and will be provided with top-notch, paid training to enhance presentation skills, learn our proven curriculum and methodology, and how to customize lessons to become a test prep expert and an effective one-on-one instructor.

 

Tutors begin at $20-$24/hour, depending on experience, with fast and aggressive pay increases based on performance, and the opportunity to gain Elite Tutor status.
