• Tutor

  Salary range: $30,000 - $50,000

  Tutors help students work through tough assignments or support the lessons from their classroom teachings. A student may not grasp something in a hectic classroom but excel when learning from a tutor in a one-on-one environment. Online tutors can reach students across the world, and private after-school tutors can help a child through a tricky math problem. Tutors can be students themselves in peer programs, teachers or teacher assistants, or educated degree-holders who wish to help students succeed.

• Teenage Tutor

  Salary range: $30,000 - $47,500

  Teenage tutor jobs involve assisting students who need additional help with their academic studies. A teen tutor can provide one-on-one peer tutoring in a subject at which they excel. During a session, a tutor may instruct the student in a specific topic or help them with an assignment or exam preparation efforts. The duties of some teen tutors focus on providing learning support for younger students in elementary or middle school. In all tutoring positions, your responsibilities may include lesson preparation and planning and taking time to assess the needs of each student with whom you work.

• Preschool Teacher

  Salary range: $30,000 - $40,000

  Preschool teachers develop the language, vocabulary, and interpersonal skills of children ages three through five, though some schools may enroll kids as young as two-years-old. These teachers take on a critical role in the growth of their students and use tools such as interactive play, songs, reading aloud, and repetitive writing to further their development. Much like elementary school teachers, preschool teachers create lesson plans for their students. Most curriculums involve a combination of academics and play-based learning.

• Private Tutor

  Salary range: $41,000 - $100,000

  A private tutor is an employee of a student or family who may specialize in teaching one subject, such as language, math, or writing, but may also provide instruction for a variety of subjects, especially if the student is of high school age or younger. As a private tutor, your responsibilities include giving one-on-one lessons with the goal of strengthening the student’s understanding of what is being taught in school or furthering their education in other areas. You may be hired to help them prepare for an exam such as the ACT or SAT. Your duties include identifying the areas your students have the most difficulty with and preparing lessons accordingly, as well as assigning and correcting homework. In this role, you’re typically expected to discuss the student’s progress with their parents. Private tutors may also be hired by adults who need extra help in preparing for various exams or certifications, for example, for higher education subjects or advancement in their career.

This part-time position lets you work with others to develop positive study habits and help them to understand the material better. Weekend tutors may work with groups of students or offer private, one-on-one sessions, and may be in-person or conducted through virtual portals.
