Job description
Tutor Me Education is reshaping how students learn, and we're looking for experienced special education 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 IEP 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.
