About the role
Why Tutor With Us?
Instead of managing a whole classroom, you can focus your expertise and attention on one student at a time. You will see how a student learns, find what is holding them back, and adjust your instruction to fit. Tutoring gives great educators the chance to make a highly individualized impact. Here is what we offer: competitive hourly compensation; flexible scheduling based on your availability and student demand; one-on-one teaching in students' homes; the opportunity to use your classroom expertise in a more personalized setting; professional support from the Prep Academy Tutors team; the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with students and families; and the ability to make a measurable difference in students' academic development.
About Our Company and This Role

Our Atlanta team is committed to high-quality, relationship-based educational support in the comfort and convenience of students' homes. We believe strong tutoring is about more than completing assignments. It is about helping students become more capable, confident, and independent learners.
