About GO Tutor Corps

The mission of the GO Tutor Corps is to provide students with access to a quality education through high-dosage tutoring. After many years of providing in-person tutoring across the Northeastern US, GO launched a virtual tutoring program in 2025. As our virtual program continues to grow, we are hiring a staff member specifically dedicated to its success.

The role includes a mix of operational work (scheduling, tutor coverage, roster management), communication with tutors and school leaders (Slack and email), and observing tutoring sessions.

Ideal candidates have strong logistical skills and K-12 instructional experience.
