Job description

3,120 – 3,900 $

Important: if an employer asks you to log into their system via iCloud or Google, send a code, an SMS or Telegram password, run some code, or install software — refuse. These are signs of fraud.

Help students succeed. Earn supplemental income. Work from home. We are looking for Reading and/or Math tutors who are available 5:00-8:00 PM EST.

Littera partners with K-12 schools and districts nationwide to deliver high-impact, customized tutoring in Reading, Math, and English Language Acquisition. Our model is built around one belief: every student who needs individualized support should have access to it regardless of subject, schedule, or learning need. Districts set real achievement goals, hold themselves accountable for results, and trust their tutors to make it happen.

As a Littera tutor, you're not filling a seat. The curriculum, platform, and scheduling infrastructure are already in place: no lesson planning, no commuting, no weekends. Your job is to show up consistently, connect with students, and help move the needle on the outcomes that matter most.

Before You Apply

U.S.-based applicants only. You must live and work within one of our eligible states.

Consistent availability is required. Hours vary week to week based on student enrollment and client needs. This role works best for candidates who can commit to a reliable weekly schedule and are comfortable with fluctuating hours. Schedules are subject to change.

Why Littera?

At Littera, every student deserves personalized academic support. As a tutor, you will:

• Earn up to $22.50/hr — $18 base pay × 1.25 paid administrative time per tutored hour, bi-weekly W-2 paycheck
• Work fully remote from the comfort of your home, Monday–Friday
• Skip the lesson prep — curriculum is built for you
• Keep it small — tutor groups of 1–3 students, building real relationships that matter
• Get covered — Littera pays for your background check and fingerprinting
• Start earning from day one — all training is paid

Tutoring hours take place between 7:00 AM-8:00 PM EST, Monday–Friday. We do not conduct tutoring sessions on weekends.

You're the right fit if you:

• Are U.S.-based and can hold a consistent, committed weekly schedule

• Can build genuine connections with students and create a motivating learning environment
• Are comfortable using virtual tools: video, audio, screenshare, whiteboard, and chat
• Want a supplemental income opportunity, up to 25 hours per week.
