Your Main Tasks Will Include

Grading & Assessment

• Consistently grade learner submissions and resubmissions using detailed rubrics and guidance.

Learner Support

• Host weekly office hours to answer questions and offer academic support.
• Respond asynchronously to learner inquiries via Slack, discussion forums, or in‑app tools within agreed SLAs.
• Clarify expectations around assignments, assessment criteria, and deadlines to reduce confusion.
• Monitor engagement signals; proactively flag at‑risk learners to the academic team for follow‑up.

Challenge Maintenance Support

• Collaborate with Learning Designers to review, maintain, and update challenge content.
• Identify points of confusion, outdated elements, or rubric misalignments based on grading insights.
• Contribute feedback that improves clarity, alignment, and instructional quality.

Team Collaboration

• Attend alignment meetings with Program Directors and academic stakeholders.
• Contribute to continuous improvement discussions and feedback loops.
• Help ensure a consistent learner experience across programmes and challenges.

What We Are Looking For

• Experience teaching, tutoring, mentoring, or assessing at undergraduate and/or master’s level, or strong professional experience with coaching/feedback in relevant domains.
• Demonstrated ability to provide specific, actionable written feedback against a rubric.
• Comfortable supporting students in a fully remote, international environment.
• Strong command of English (written and spoken). Additional languages are a plus.
• Confident using digital tools (e.g., Slack, LMS, Google Workspace, Notion, Zoom) and learning new systems.
• Reliable time management; able to work to grading SLAs and fixed weekly hours.
• Familiarity with AI‑assisted workflows for drafting feedback or analysing rubric alignment (with human oversight).
• Experience with challenge‑based learning, competency‑based assessment, or portfolio evaluation.
• Prior involvement in curriculum or assessment design.
• Background or interest in Tomorrow University focus areas (e.g., sustainability, entrepreneurship, tech & innovation, leadership).
