Tutor Me Education is reshaping how students learn, and we're looking for experienced academic tutors to provide 1:1 and small group virtual instruction to students across the country. If you're passionate about supporting students with IEPs, 504 plans, and diverse learning needs — and you want the flexibility to build a schedule around your life — we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll do:

• Deliver engaging, individualized virtual instruction tailored to each student's goals, accommodations, and learning profile
• Create structured lesson plans that align with student goals, grade-level standards, and the specific accommodations or modifications each student requires
• Adapt instruction in real time based on student questions, progress, and engagement
• Track student progress and communicate effectively with families and, where applicable, school district partners

Why tutors love working with us:

• Fully remote — tutor from home on your own computer
• You set your schedule — choose your availability and update it anytime
• You set your hourly rate — and negotiate per job based on the scope of work
• Steady opportunities — with hundreds of new students signing up daily, we match jobs to your email based on the subjects and student populations you're best suited for

Note: Many of our assignments operate in Pacific Time, so availability during PT hours is a plus.

• Familiarity with IEPs, 504 plans, and common accommodations (extended time, chunked instruction, multi-sensory approaches, etc.)
• Ability to design and deliver lesson plans aligned to student goals and accommodations
• Strong virtual instruction skills — comfort with video conferencing, digital whiteboards, and keeping students engaged online
• Ability to pass a background check
• Reliable computer, internet, webcam, and quiet workspace

Preferred (not required):
