We are looking for an individual to work with students primarily in elementary and middle school in one-on-one tutoring of content knowledge and executive functioning skills. Content needs include but are not limited to: writing, reading, social studies, math, science, and study skills. This is an in-person position, with possible online clients.

Our approach is relationship-based and focuses on social/emotional learning. We prioritize trust and rapport building, making reliability a critical requirement.

We work with a diverse population of public and private students in the Seattle area with varying backgrounds, needs, and subject areas. We offer in-person tutoring at our Columbia City office as well as remote tutoring. Because relationships and trust are at the forefront of our work, all tutors are requested to commit to keeping their assigned students through the school year.
