In-Person Tutor

SiSTEM • Pearland, TX

11h • Onsite

About The Position

SiSTEM is hiring experienced tutors to work in person with motivated students and families in the Pearland, Texas area. This is not a volume tutoring gig. Our tutors work as trusted academic partners with families who value expertise, helping students build real understanding, stronger study strategies, and confidence in their coursework. In-person availability is required. That can look like a lot of different things: sessions at a student's home, a public library, a community space, a coffee shop, a school, or your own location. If you can meet students face to face somewhere in the Pearland, Texas area, we want to hear from you.

Requirements

• 3+ years of teaching, tutoring, or academic mentoring experience.
• Deep expertise in at least one subject and grade band listed above.
• Reliable transportation and the ability to meet students in person in the Pearland, Texas area.
• Experience working with motivated students in honors, Pre-AP, AP, IB, gifted, dual credit, or test prep settings.
• A track record of helping students improve grades, build confidence, or master concepts they previously struggled with.
• Clear, patient communication and the ability to make a subject click for students who think they are "not a math person" or "not a writer".
• Professional reliability.
• Applicants must have completed high school. Current high school students are not eligible.

Nice To Haves

• current or former classroom teachers
• professionals who tutor in their field
• educators with degrees in their subject area
• tutors with experience across multiple grade bands

Responsibilities

• Work one-on-one and in person with students in grades K-12 in your subject areas.

• Identify and close gaps in foundational skills that are holding students back.
• Align your sessions with each student's broader academic roadmap through SiSTEM's planning tools.
• Communicate with families on progress and strategy when appropriate.
• Maintain high standards of preparation and professionalism.

Benefits

• You set your own rates, and you keep 100% of what you earn.
• Matched with students who fit your expertise. No random assignments.
• Bring your current students with you.
• We handle the marketing.
• Tools to manage your business.
