In-Home Academic Mentor
(Private Instruction)

Sylvan Learning – Southern California

About the Opportunity
Sylvan Learning provides personalized, in-home academic support for
families seeking a flexible and customized approach to instruction.
This role centers on delivering high-quality, one-on-one instruction in
students’ homes. The service combines Sylvan’s structured learning
programs with individualized academic support tailored to each student.
We are seeking educators who are comfortable working independently, can
adapt to a range of academic needs, and can represent Sylvan with
professionalism in a home setting.

What You’ll Do
 Deliver one-on-one instruction in students’ homes using Sylvan’s
structured programs and customized academic support
 Support students in Math (Algebra through Calculus), ELA/Writing,
and/or Test Prep (SAT/ACT)
 Adapt sessions based on student progress and goals
 Maintain professionalism, organization, and punctuality
 Work in cooperation with an Academic Advisor to share detailed notes
about each session

What We’re Looking For
 Bachelor’s degree required (Education or related field preferred)
 2+ years of tutoring or teaching experience
 Strong proficiency in either high school-level math or ELA/Writing
 Experience with standardized test prep (SAT/ACT—math and/or verbal)
strongly preferred
 Ability to work independently
 Comfortable using iPad-based instructional tools
 Professional presence and strong communication skills
 Reliable transportation for in-home sessions

Compensation amp; Structure
Starting at $35/hour, based on experience and subject expertise
Flexible scheduling
Consistent student placements—no client sourcing required

Why This Role Stands Out
 Opportunity to specialize in Math or ELA/Writing
 Work with high school students on advanced coursework and test prep
 One-on-one instruction—no group management
 Be part of a growing, specialized in-home tutoring division

To Apply
Please submit your resume, subjects of specialization (Math, ELA/Writing, or
both), preferred grade levels, and availability.
