Online Math Tutor — Grades 6–9, Set Schedule, Start Now

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

Apply Here

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
