SAT Tutor

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Individual and Group Instruction: Facilitate remote SAT sessions across all sections of the digital SAT — Reading and Writing, Math (Module 1), and Math (Module 2) — aimed at achieving measurable progress each week.

• Diagnostic-Driven Planning: Conduct a comprehensive diagnostic test for each new student and create a week-by-week preparation strategy tied to a target score and test date.

• Integrated Content and Strategy Instruction: Provide instruction in content mastery and test strategies concurrently during each session, covering algebra, advanced mathematics, evidence-based reading, grammar conventions, pacing, elimination logic, and College Board question patterns.

• Targeted Homework and Review: Assign and evaluate focused homework between sessions, including section drills, problem sets, and timed full-length practice tests, while adjusting the plan according to performance.

• Parent Reporting: Maintain regular communication with parents that includes section-level data, score progression updates, focus areas, and suggested next steps.

• Test-Week Strategy: Manage final-week preparations, including pacing strategies, anxiety management techniques, and the test-day routine.

⛳️ Requirements

• Proven Expertise: A well-defined tutoring approach developed through extensive experience with the SAT, capable of guiding specific student arcs and explaining the rationale behind preparation decisions.

• Demonstrated Score Lift: A confirmed track record of significant, repeatable score improvements — the kind that greatly enhances a student's college options. Candidates should be ready to discuss documented before-and-after results in detail.

• Instruction-Led Methodology: Score improvement driven by direct teaching and real-time diagnostics rather than self-guided workbook completion. Homework serves to reinforce instruction; it does not replace it.

• Deep Command of the Digital SAT: Proficient understanding of the current digital SAT, including the Bluebook environment, adaptive module mechanics, scoring algorithms, and common College Board question patterns. Commitment to staying updated as the test evolves.

• Personal Test Mastery: A personal SAT score of 1500 or higher, or a 99th-percentile equivalent on the ACT or legacy SAT, with verification available.

• Remote-Ready Setup: A dedicated workspace, stable internet connection, a second monitor, and a document camera or tablet for live problem-solving on screen.

• Location: Remote (U.S.). U.S. work authorization is required.

• Bonus Points

• Student-Athlete Experience: Previous experience tutoring student-athletes or students managing demanding training and competition schedules.

• Published Outcomes: Verifiable score reports, testimonials, or references from previous families.

• Admissions Fluency: A working knowledge of college admissions timelines and the role of standardized testing within the larger application process.

• Curriculum Authorship: Development and refinement of proprietary materials, drills, or methodologies over time.

🏝️ Benefits

• Flexible work environment that allows for remote instruction.

• Opportunity to make a significant impact on students' academic trajectories.

• Competitive compensation and potential for professional growth.
