We are currently hiring highly skilled Mathematics Teachers to provide live academic support to K-12 students based in the United States.

This is a fully online teaching opportunity supporting students enrolled in mainstream schools, homeschool programmes, AP courses, and supplemental mathematics programmes.

About the Role

This is not a traditional classroom teaching role. Teachers provide short-form, live academic assistance to students who join an online support platform when they get stuck on a maths problem, concept, method, or theory. Sessions are typically around 10 minutes long and focus on direct, snapshot-style support.

Students may require assistance with:

  • Working through equations or problem-solving methods
  • Understanding mathematical theories or concepts
  • Clarifying homework or practice activities
  • AP-level and advanced mathematics support

If a student requires extensive intervention or ongoing academic support, they are referred back to their primary/full-time teacher.

Requirements

Applicants must have:

  • A completed tertiary qualification in:
    • Mathematics, OR
    • B.Ed FET with Mathematics as a core module/major
    • Related Degree
  • Exceptionally strong mathematics knowledge across multiple areas and levels
  • The ability to think quickly and explain concepts clearly in real time
  • Strong verbal communication skills

Technical Requirements

Tutors must have:

  • Fibre internet connection (minimum 25 Mbps upload/download)
  • LAN-connected setup
  • i5 quad-core PC/laptop capable of running teaching software
  • UPS/back-up power solution

  • Quiet, professional working environment

Working Hours

  • South African time 15:00 – 00:00 SAST
  • Shift can be halved, e.g., 15:00-19:00 and 19:00-00:00

Compensation

  • Approximate monthly earning potential: R22 000

Additional Information

  • Fully remote/online
  • No lesson planning required
  • No grading, test setting, or reporting responsibilities
  • Immediate support-focused teaching environment
