One kid. Twice a week. Fractions to Algebra 1. Watch it click.

A+ Tutoring is placing 1:1 math students from a California charter school network right now, and we need tutors who can start the week of November 9.
Here’s the setup: you get a student. Not a rotating cast. One student, two 50-minute sessions a week, 20 sessions straight through late February. The school’s teacher has already written the goal: “add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators at 80%,” “solve two-step equations,” “multiply multi-digit decimals.” You’ve got the i-Ready scores, the parent’s biggest worry, and a clear finish line. Your job is to get them there.
Who the students are
Mostly 6th–9th graders working two to four grade levels behind in math: number sense, fractions and decimals, pre-algebra, early Algebra 1
Homeschool/charter kids, so they’re used to one-on-one attention and they’ll notice if you’re good
Some have IEPs or are English learners. Several parents told us their kid “shuts down when it gets hard.” Patience and warmth matter as much as content knowledge
Who we’re looking for
Current or former classroom teachers, math interventionists, credentialed educators. Stay-at-home teachers, we’d love you
Solid from elementary number sense through Algebra 1. You don’t need to teach calculus; you need to make fractions make sense to a 13-year-old who’s given up on them
Reliable. These schedules are set by the school and families count on them. If you’ve never missed a session in your life, you’ll fit right in
How it works
Fully online, from home, on our platform (training provided)
Sessions fall between 9 AM and 3 PM Pacific, Monday–Friday. Pick the block that fits your life:
Late morning (10 AM–12 PM PT / 1–3 PM ET): most students need this
Early afternoon (1–3 PM PT / 4–6 PM ET)
First thing (9–11 AM PT / noon–2 PM ET): fewer students, but they’re the hardest to place, so if this is your window you’ll be matched fast
Two sessions a week per student, usually on different days. Mon/Tue/Thu are busiest; Fridays are lighter
You write a short lesson note after each session so the parent and the school’s teacher know what happened
Take one student or fill your calendar; we have dozens placing now, and more coming after February
This program is the starting point, not the ceiling. Want more hours? We run private-pay and charter tutoring year-round, afternoons and evenings included, across K-12 math, reading, writing, and test prep. Tutors who do well here get first pick of new students as they come in, and most of our 80+ tutors carry a mix of programs
Why tutors stay with us
15 years in, 80+ tutors, and a Program Design Badge from the National Student Support Accelerator
Schedulers who handle the logistics so you just teach
A support team that answers on Slack, not in three business days

Tips for Your Remote Set Designer Job Search
Build a portfolio that proves remote readiness
Include process documentation alongside finished set designs: mood boards, drafting revisions, and annotated renders. Remote employers need to follow your decision-making without being in the room, so showing your process is as important as showing the final result.
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote set designer openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your skills and apply directly without sorting through unrelated listings.
Sharpen your async communication before interviews
Remote set design teams run on written briefs, annotated feedback, and video walkthroughs. Practice explaining design choices in writing and prepare a short video walkthrough of a past project, since many remote employers use async interview steps before scheduling a live call.
Target companies with distributed creative teams
Remote-first production companies, digital advertising agencies, and gaming studios are the most consistent remote hirers for set designers. Search for companies with distributed or fully remote creative departments, since they have established workflows for managing set design collaboration across locations.
Remote Set Designer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote set designer job?
Remote set designer roles go to candidates who can demonstrate self-direction, strong async communication, and the ability to collaborate across distributed teams without in-person check-ins. Remote employers screen for proficiency in tools like SketchUp, AutoCAD, and Adobe Creative Suite, plus a portfolio that shows finished, production-ready work. Candidates who include process documentation alongside final designs stand out because remote teams need to follow your thinking without being in the room.
Which companies hire remote set designers?
Employers currently hiring remote set designers include Collectors, Vivint, and CellCarta, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These tend to be remote-first production companies, distributed advertising agencies, and digital media firms that run creative projects across multiple time zones.
Can you get a remote set designer job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level set designer roles are harder to land because employers expect you to work independently from day one with minimal supervision. The strongest entry path is a portfolio of student, independent, or volunteer productions that shows concept-to-build execution. Remote-first companies in advertising and gaming hire junior set designers more readily than traditional studios, especially when candidates can demonstrate clear written communication and familiarity with collaborative design tools.
Do you need a degree for remote set designer jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers weigh a strong portfolio, production credits, and demonstrated proficiency in industry-standard design software more heavily than a formal degree. A degree in scenic design, fine arts, or architecture can help you get past initial screening, but employers hiring for distributed teams often prioritize candidates who can show finished work and communicate design intent clearly in writing.
