Job Description

Middle School/Jr High/High School Math & Science Teachers Wanted for Fun After-School Tutoring!

Sylvan Learning Center is looking for fun, dedicated teachers and tutors to help and inspire students. We are currently looking for teachers and tutors who are able to teach Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II, and Pre-Calculus. Statistics, Calculus, and other high-school sciences are a plus.

As a Sylvan instructor, you will be tasked with working with students of all ages. While your primary focus will be helping high school students with their math homework, you may occasionally be called upon to work with late-elementary and middle school students with our pre-built curriculums. These are easy-to-teach, pre-planned lessons which involve explaining a topic to a student, and then having the student work independently using what they just learned. You will also play a key role in motivating and connecting with each student, so they feel inspired to learn.

Each student will typically ask questions about their classwork or homework for the day. Sometimes they will need help preparing for a test
