Remote Writing Tutor Jobs

Part-Time Virtual Reading & Writing Tutor (Grades 4–8) — Weekday Evenings 4:00–8:00pm ET Schedule requirement: This role needs at least 6 hours per week of recurring sessions between 4:00 and 8:00pm Eastern Time, Monday through Thursday, with at least 2 of those evenings running until 8:00pm ET. That is 3:00–7:00pm Central, 2:00–6:00pm Mountain, or 1:00–5:00pm Pacific. We interview applicants who can commit to this minimum first. More hours are welcome. Certificate requirement: You need an active teaching certificate in Middle Grades Language Arts (grades 4–8), Secondary English (grades 6–12), or Reading (P–12), or the same coverage under another state's name. A certificate that stops at 5th grade belongs on our elementary post, not this one. English 6–12 is welcome here. It covers middle school and high school, and it does not cover 4th or 5th, so those grades still need the elementary post or a 4–8 field. A special education certificate by itself does not fit unless one of those language arts fields is on it too. Connected Tutors is a small virtual tutoring practice. Families come to us for reading and writing, mostly in grades 3–8, on weekday afternoons and evenings. We are hiring one contract tutor for that band. About the Role You will teach the same students every week in one-on-one and small-group sessions on Google Meet. Sessions are 30 minutes (45 for small groups). You will teach reading and writing from an assessment-informed plan and adapt to each student's attention, confidence, and pace. Many of our students have an IEP, dyslexia, or ADHD. Some are rebuilding after a hard year. Some are working ahead. You will work directly with our founder and lead educator to: - Teach skill-based reading and writing from a plan - Use structured literacy when the student needs it - Track progress and write brief session notes - Keep the same students all school year This is not a worksheet-only or scripted-curriculum role. Your judgment matters here. What You'll Tutor Grades 4–8 reading and writing. - Decoding, fluency, and spelling for older students who still need them - Vocabulary and comprehension - Sentence, paragraph, and short-response writing - Grammar in the service of the writing, not as a standalone drill - Structured literacy or Orton-Gillingham-informed instruction Orton-Gillingham, Wilson, Barton, LETRS, or a dyslexia endorsement on your certificate is what we look for on top of the grade band. Tell us which one you have. Who We're Looking For - Available at least 6 hours per week between 4:00 and 8:00pm ET, Monday–Thursday, including at least 2 evenings until 8:00pm ET - An active U.S. teaching certificate in Middle Grades Language Arts (4–8), Secondary English (6–12), or Reading (P–12) - Georgia certification in that field is the best match, because we list tutors for Georgia students - Classroom, intervention, or literacy experience in upper elementary or middle school - Comfort teaching on Google Meet with warmth and clarity - Reliability with the same weekly students all school year - Bachelor's degree required Schedule and Hours - Part-time contract role, fully remote - Minimum 6 hours per week in the 4:00–8:00pm ET window. Up to 12+ hours as students are matched. - Recurring weekly sessions through the school year Our Teaching Philosophy Academic progress and emotional safety go together. Many of our students need to feel capable again before the reading gets easier. We care about whether they leave a session more able than when they arrived. Why Work With Us - Small team - Remote, contract-based work - The same students every week - Direct support from the founder and lead educator Please make sure your resume shows: - Your teaching certificate: state, the field name, and the grade band - Reading and writing you have taught in grades 4–8, or in grades 6–12 if that is your certificate - Structured literacy, OG, Wilson, Barton, LETRS, or a dyslexia endorsement, if you have it
