After-School Math Teacher/Tutor – WCUSD Campuses
About The Position
Sylvan Learning of West Covina is hiring up to 15 teachers and tutors for an upcoming after-school math intervention program at West Covina Unified School District campuses. This is an in-person, school-site position designed for educators who want to make a meaningful impact without creating curriculum, writing lesson plans from scratch, grading papers, or taking work home. Sylvan provides the curriculum, lesson materials, manipulatives, training, and ongoing support. Tutors will provide live, teacher-led math instruction to groups of up to eight students. Students will be grouped according to their instructional needs, and tutors will follow Sylvan’s structured Ace It! Math program. Consistency is very important to our students and school partners. Once assigned, tutors are expected to remain with the same classroom and student groups for the full 12- or 24-week program. Daily shifts will range from approximately 1.5 to 4 hours, depending on the campus schedule and number of groups assigned. We will make every effort to provide as many back-to-back instructional hours as possible based on each tutor’s availability. However, specific daily hours cannot be guaranteed. Applicants with consistent availability on multiple afternoons will receive priority consideration. This is a limited-term position connected to a specific school-district program. Assignments are dependent on final district contracts, student enrollment, scheduling, and completion of all clearance requirements. The initial assignment will last 12 or 24 weeks, depending on the school contract. Renewal is not guaranteed. After the school-site assignment ends, ongoing part-time opportunities at Sylvan Learning of West Covina may be available based on performance, availability, and center staffing needs, but continued employment is not guaranteed.
