Welcome to the Academy!
We have a great team excited to work with you! Currently we are hiring for school year 24-25, with start dates in mid-August, early-September, mid-September, and October. These positions are usually part-time, from 10 to 35 hours per week, depending on the number of subjects you’re comfortable tutoring or teaching. The commitment is from date of hire until the end of the school year (mid-June), although the Academy is open and working with student year-round and we’d love to have you consider a summer continuation.
We hire for all subjects throughout the year as our students are on a rolling admission basis. We tutor and teach all core courses (English, Science, History, Math, Foreign Languages) as well as electives that match student interests and instructor capabilities.
Upon hire, all instructors go through a paid orientation and training, including observing previously-recorded sessions to get a sense of how we do things here, both for comfort and consistency. Pacific Learning Academy offers their clients tutoring and 1-on-1 customized middle and high school accredited classes. You do not need certifications to teach a credit class, but you must have empathy, curiosity and a deep knowledge of your subject matter. The Academy will help with curriculum, grading philosophy, assessments, and creating/updating student portfolios.
All lessons are conducted either in the 1-on-1 or shared lesson format, meaning you’ll be customizing each of your lessons to just one student (or two) that you get to know extremely well over their program duration.
If you think you can tutor or support more than 1 subject, be sure to indicate that on this application as we are able to accommodate and give priority to multi-subject instructors!
