About The Position

A professional family in Alamo, CA is seeking an experienced academic tutor or elementary school teacher for part-time, 1:1 instruction with their 9-year-old son entering 4th grade. This is a placed position through Hello Nanny's Concierge service. The role focuses on structured 1:1 tutoring sessions in 4th grade math, writing, and executive function skills. The family is looking for an educator who designs the learning experience, not someone who supervises homework completion. The student is a bright, bilingual 8-year-old entering 4th grade who thrives in 1:1 learning environments. He is a strong reader with high energy and a tendency toward distraction. The ideal candidate will be a structured, warm educator who arrives prepared, holds the session with consistency, and adapts instruction to keep him engaged.

• Strong working knowledge of 4th grade curriculum, with emphasis on elementary math instruction
• Experience delivering 1:1 tutoring or individualized academic instruction
• Ability to design a student-specific curriculum and track measurable progress
• Experience or genuine comfort working with attention-challenged learners (ADD/ADHD)
• Structured, professional approach — you come prepared and hold the session
• Warm, relatable presence with elementary-age children
