Open Positions
(August 2010)
Tutors - Test
Preparation, Sciences (Bethesda and
McLean)
Part-time tutors start at $30-$50
an hour depending on experience and are
expected to work a minimum of 10 hours per week
during busy seasons (yes, we take this stuff
seriously). Tutors can schedule meetings on
weekdays or weekends (or mornings if you're so
constituted). The office is open 24-7. (Did we
mention we take this stuff seriously?) Paid
training is provided and all tutoring takes
place in our Bethesda and McLean offices or
area high schools.
Ideal candidates
will be comfortable working in a dynamic
environment with a friendly, vibrant staff and
specialized clientele. Additionally, candidates
must have a bachelor's degree and must be able
to teach the math, verbal and writing (essay
& grammar) portions of the test. Candidates
who do not wish to teach all three sections of
the SAT will not be considered unless they can
tutor three of the following: calculus,
biology, chemistry, physics. A qualifying test
in these areas is administered to all
applicants. We ask that tutors have an honest
expectation that they will be able to work for
at least two years with PrepMatters. There is a
fairly steep learning curve for new tutors and
given the time and energy both trainers and
employees are expected to devote to training,
at least a two-year period of employment is
really necessary for the employment to be
beneficial to both the tutor and and to
PrepMatters.
If you are looking for a
fun and rewarding work environment, please send
cover letter and resume to jobs@prepmatters.com.
No phone calls, please. Email inquiries will
not be addressed until a resume and cover
letter have been
submitted.
