About Academic Approach :

Academic Approach began with a focused mission : to mentor students while building their key academic skills. Join our team of dedicated educators to deliver rewarding, highly personalized, high-impact 1-on-1 and classroom course instruction.

About the Role :

While many of our 1-on-1 tutoring students and school partners prefer to work virtually, we are currently looking exclusively for candidates who are also willing to tutor in-person at our Lincoln Park and / or Winnetka offices and / or teach in-person on the campuses of our partner schools.  Please note that this is not a full-time position, and it will not be a good fit for those seeking full-time work; while average hours per week vary drastically from instructor to instructor, most of our instructors average 8-12 instructional hours per week.

At this juncture, we are looking for new tutors / teachers to add to our team for at least the duration of the 2025-26 school year.  If you are unable to commit to at least one full school year, we respectfully ask that you not apply.

About our Content Quiz :

Please note that due to the nature of this tutor / instructor position all candidates will need to complete a content quiz that includes English and math questions prior to being considered for an interview. 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.
