Job description
Start: August 2026
Job Type: Full-Time (30–40 hours/week, W2); Remote (U.S. based)
Compensation: $35-45/hour for teaching + $16–20/hour for non-teaching time
Join Think Academy as a full-time Math Teacher. Teach with a structured, high-quality curriculum, receive paid training, and grow into long-term teaching and curriculum roles. This is a long-term teaching opportunity — not a short-term tutoring role.
About Think Academy
Think Academy US, a wholly owned subsidiary of TAL Education Group (NYSE: TAL), is a leading education company dedicated to helping K–12 students build strong academic foundations, confidence in math, and long-term learning ability through high-quality teaching and thoughtfully designed curriculum.
Why This Role Is Different
Most teaching roles expect you to build everything yourself. Here, you teach within a structured instructional system. Curriculum, lesson materials, training, and team support are already in place, so you can focus on teaching quality and student growth instead of building materials from scratch.
Stronger Teaching Support — we provide pre-developed curriculum and lesson materials, structured onboarding, ongoing training, and a team to collaborate with instead of teaching in isolation
Long-Term Career Growth — high performers can grow into Senior Teacher, Teacher Trainer, or Academic Operations/Management roles
Competitive, Growing Earnings — paid for both teaching and non-teaching work, with performance-based raises up to 3 times a year, and an end-of-semester commission
What You'll Do
Teach school or competition math in a clear, engaging, student-centered way, using our curriculum, lesson materials, and instructional guidance
Lead virtual classes with ~18 students, creating a positive, high-expectation learning environment
Grade homework, give timely feedback, and communicate professionally with students/parents on progress and learning plans
Participate in training, lesson prep, and ongoing professional development
Schedule & Commitment
Onboarding starts August 2026; teaching begins September 2026
~3-6 classes/week (6-12 teaching hours), plus admin hours (grading, prep, parent communications), total 30-40 hrs/week
Class windows (Pacific Time): Wed-Fri, 4pm-8pm and Sat-Sun, 9am-8pm
Once classes are assigned, your schedule stays consistent week to week (except federal holidays)
Commit to at least one year (till May 2027)
Compensation & Benefits
Teaching Hours: $35-45/hour
Non-Teaching/Admin Hours: $16-20/hour (grading, class prep, parent communication)
Performance-based pay increases up to 3 times per year, plus end-of-semester commission targeted at 15-30% of total teaching compensation

Benefits: 401(k), health/dental/vision insurance (based on eligibility)
Visa sponsorship may be considered for long-term, high-performing teachers

Bachelor's degree or higher from an accredited college or university
Strong math foundation; Math, STEM-related, or Education majors preferred
Available during the class windows above; available on at least one weekend day
Passion for teaching and supporting student growth; strong communication skills
