We are looking for an experienced math tutor to work with an 8-year-old student in daily lessons from Monday to Friday!
The tutor must have a strong track record of working with children of similar age and be fluent in English.
Lessons should be dynamic, engaging, and adapted to the child's learning style. A deep understanding of child psychology and the ability to cultivate intrinsic motivation are essential.
The tutor must maintain a warm yet structured teaching approach, someone who is creative and playful, but also consistent and respected by the child.
The tutor should align with our values around curiosity-driven learning and be capable of building a long-term trajectory that leads the student from foundational arithmetic through advanced elementary mathematics. Curriculum familiarity and the ability to clearly explain the roadmap are required.
Key Responsibilities:
