Join the team

At Kate's Tutoring, we're not just another online tutoring company. We're a boutique agency that believes in personalized attention, meaningful connections, and transformative learning experiences. If you love seeing students light up with understanding, you'll fit right in!

​

All applicants must be eligible to work and reside in the United States. Kate's Tutoring operates as a Tutor Referral Agency.

What You Teach

  • Usually middle school to high school students

  • We're especially interested in tutors who work in multiple subjects and all sections of standardized tests

  • Comfortable working with students and building rapport quickly

  • Test prep (ACT/SAT, ISEE/SSAT), all sections

  • Science + math courses through AP levels.

This role requires breadth. If you exclusively teach a single subject (for example, only English or only History) or specialize primarily in early childhood education, this is probably not the best fit.

 

The ideal candidate will not just know the SAT & ACT and be able to communicate tips, tricks, and review materials to students, but will also be adept at tutoring middle and high schoolers in academic subjects like MATH, HISTORY, ENGLISH, and SCIENCE.

 

Our strongest tutors are academic generalists. Students often stay with us for years, and their needs evolve over time. The ideal tutor is comfortable supporting students across multiple subjects rather than a single specialty.

​

Availability

  • Weekends, especially Saturdays, are in high demand.

  • We frequently receive opportunities during weekday evenings (3pm–8pm Pacific).

  • Tutors choose which opportunities they are available for and set their own schedules.

Who are you?

  • You possess a BA, BS, or higher degree from a four-year university or college.

  • You have at least one year of relevant experience in tutoring or teaching.

  • You approach teaching with kindness and thoughtfulness.

  • You communicate professionally with parents, students, and colleagues.

  • You have reliable technology for online tutoring (webcam, strong internet, system for whiteboard writing...).

  • Consent to and pass a background check OR provide a valid teaching credential

  • A strong mastery of subjects taught

​

Who does well with our families

  • Adapt their teaching style to the student in front of them rather than using the same approach with everyone.

  • Build rapport quickly and make students feel comfortable asking questions.

  • Communicate proactively and professionally.

  • Are dependable and manage their schedules independently.

  • Stay calm when students are struggling and enjoy figuring out what helps each learner succeed.

  • Our tutors are independent professionals. The tutors who thrive here enjoy managing their own schedules, communicating proactively, and building long-term relationships with students and families.

What we offer

  • Tutors set their own rates based on their experience, subject matter, and client needs. Most tutors in our network currently charge in the $20–30/hr range, though rates vary and you are welcome to propose your own.

  • Flexible Scheduling: Set your own hours and manage your schedule to fit your lifestyle and availability.

  • Positive Culture: Engage with a network of like-minded professionals who value collaboration and a student-centered approach.

  • Administrative Support: We handle client acquisition, scheduling coordination, and billing for tutoring engagements arranged through Kate's Tutoring, allowing you to focus on your students.

  • Opportunities for Growth: Expand your expertise by exploring additional tutoring opportunities or areas of specialization.

  • Regular Communication: Access optional resources, materials, and opportunities for professional development.

Tutors are independent professionals and may accept or decline individual opportunities.
