Description

Teacher Tutors is hiring a part-time Middle School Tutor to join our team on a flexible basis. This role is ideal for current or former middle school teachers who are comfortable working across subjects and know how to meet students wherever they are. Supporting students in grades 6 through 8 across their core academic subjects, homework, and study skills.

You'll work with students across a range of subjects and goals: middle school math and pre-algebra, reading comprehension and writing, science, and social studies, along with the organization and study habits that help this age group thrive. Sessions take place in students' homes or at our Livingston, NJ office. This is an in-person role, not an online-only position. We do our best to match families to tutors based on your preferred travel radius. You tell us how far you're willing to drive, and we work within that.

Responsibilities:

• Deliver one-on-one tutoring sessions tailored to each student's courses, families' expectations, and learning goals.
• Support students across core subjects (math, reading, writing, science, and social studies) as well as homework completion, test prep, and long-term projects.
• Move fluidly between subjects within a single session, following the student's homework and priorities that day.
• Build the study skills and habits that set middle schoolers up for high school (organization, time management, note-taking, and test preparation).
• Track progress across sessions and adjust pacing, materials, and difficulty based on what's working.
• Submit a short session note after each tutoring session and flag concerns to our Director early.
• Communicate clearly and warmly with parents.
• Contribute to our team's shared practice: share what's working, ask questions, and help us keep raising the bar.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree (any field). A degree in education and a current or former teaching certification are strongly preferred. Master's or PhD candidates are welcome.
• Classroom teaching experience at the middle school level, or comparable experience working with this age group across multiple subjects.
• Comfort supporting the full middle school core: math through pre-algebra, reading and writing, science, and social studies.
• Strong communication skills and the patience to work with students who may arrive frustrated, distracted, or low on confidence.
• A warm, encouraging presence that puts students at ease and keeps them engaged.
• Genuine enjoyment of working with middle schoolers and an understanding of what this age group needs, both academically and emotionally.
• Ability to plan individualized sessions and adapt in real time when a planned approach isn't landing, including explaining the same concept in multiple ways until it clicks.
• Availability for afternoon, evening, or weekend hours during the school year, with extra capacity around midterms and finals.
• Comfort with educational technology.
• Reliable transportation and a valid driver's license for in-home sessions.

Preferred

• Current or former middle school classroom teaching experience across more than one subject area
• Experience helping middle schoolers build confidence and independence, not just raise grades
• Experience supporting executive function and study skills (organization, planning, and test preparation) for this age group
• Familiarity with the New Jersey middle school curriculum and how it prepares students for high school placement
• Experience working with students with a range of learning needs and styles
• Bilingual (Spanish, Mandarin, or other languages common in the communities we serve)
