Job description

Tuitional is hiring remote, independent-contractor tutors to deliver live one-to-one lessons for Grades 5-8 across all core subjects to students in the GCC, UK, Canada and Malaysia. Sessions run on Google Meet through Tuitional's LMS, and you set your own schedule as long as you overlap with student hours. This suits graduates or final-year undergraduates who can explain reasoning clearly and are comfortable teaching with digital tools.

What you will do

• Deliver structured live lessons that open with the topic, check understanding mid-session, and close with a recap
• Explain the reasoning behind answers to build foundations for IGCSE, not just give correct responses
• Set level-appropriate practice questions and connect topics to real-life contexts or future IGCSE content
• Teach using a digital whiteboard and handwriting tools; prepare clear, shareable resources for each session
• Log progress in the LMS after every session and keep parents informed of student development
• Start and end sessions on time and follow Tuitional's scheduling, communication and safeguarding policies
• Run assigned demo lessons, complete onboarding training and act on feedback from the Academic team

What we need

• Quiet, distraction-free workstation with a neutral background and a laptop or computer with a working camera and microphone (no phones for teaching)
• A writing or graphics tablet, or an iPad with a stylus, for handwriting equations and diagrams on screen
• Reliable high-speed internet with a backup connection such as mobile data
• Available at least 2-3 hours per day in slots that overlap student schedules across the GCC, UK, Canada and Malaysia
• Fluent spoken and written English - the medium of every session
• Comfortable using Google Meet and digital whiteboard tools, and willing to pass Tuitional's policy test during onboarding

Nice to have

• Ability to link Grade 5-8 topics explicitly to real-life applications or to what students will encounter at IGCSE
• Prior experience tutoring or teaching lower-secondary students on IGCSE, GCSE or equivalent curricula
