Job description

We are looking for an experienced math tutor to work with an 5-year-old student in daily lessons from Monday to Friday at 9:30 AM Dubai time.

The tutor must have a strong track record of working with children of similar age and be fluent in English.

Lessons should be dynamic, engaging, and adapted to the child’s learning style. A deep understanding of child psychology and the ability to cultivate intrinsic motivation are essential.

The tutor must maintain a warm yet structured teaching approach — someone who is creative and playful, but also consistent and respected by the child.

The tutor should align with our values around curiosity-driven learning and be capable of building a long-term trajectory that leads the student from foundational arithmetic through advanced elementary mathematics. Curriculum familiarity and the ability to clearly explain the roadmap are required.

Key Responsibilities

• Teach daily 1-hour math lessons (Monday–Friday, 9.30 – 10.10 Dubai time) for 2 months
• Resume lessons in December (exact time to be confirmed)
• Provide a personalized math learning plan and update it regularly based on student progress
• Attend bi-weekly Tutor Council meetings to share insights, progress, and concerns
• Submit a short feedback form after each lesson assessing effort, knowledge mastery, and observations
• Assign and review homework regularly

Requirements

• Daily availability at the specified time.
• Proven experience teaching math to children aged ~5.
• Ability to design a clear, motivating learning journey through foundational and intermediate math.
• Strong presence: kind, flexible, but able to set and hold structure.
• Deep alignment with learner-centered, intrinsic motivation-based pedagogy.
• Skilled at feedback, progress tracking, and coordination with the education team.

Qualifications

• Degree in Education, Mathematics, or related field (preferred).
• Training or certification in child development, pedagogy, or elementary math education (preferred).
• Fluent English speaker with strong communication and teaching skills.
• Familiarity with international math curricula and ability to personalize learning paths.
• Experience working one-on-one and adapting to individual learning styles.
