This (untimed) quiz should take approximately 30-45 mins to complete. About our Training: We believe strongly in our robust training. Our training modules are each a combination of synchronous sessions with a trainer and asynchronous work. We identify each candidate's best pathway through our trainings and send personalized invitations to training that include more details. All trainings are paid. A Successful Academic Approach Tutor & School Programs Teacher: Prioritizes their students, leading with curiosity, compassion, and enthusiasm for their success. Maintains a growth mindset, incorporating the instructional best practices from extensive training and coaching to lead their students to success. Consistently maintains professionalism in all facets of the role, actively collaborating with students, clients, and colleagues in pursuit of program success. Key Responsibilities Deliver engaging specialized academic and test-prep instruction to high school (and some middle school) students across the Chicagoland area.

Access to a computer with a webcam, mic, and a reliable internet connection (with at least 100 mbps download and 100 mbps upload speed) for virtual instruction. Consistent availability of at least 10 hours per week. What we offer Competitive pay, starting at $30/hr for 1-on-1 tutoring and $47/hr for classroom teaching with potential for increases bi-annually based on performance.
