Looking to make a difference? Dyslexia Reading Connection® is actively seeking tutors to work with students (K-12) and adults who need assistance with reading and spelling, and math. Tutors will provide guidance to their students on a one-on-one basis to bring them up to grade level. No experience necessary, but the qualified applicants will need to be able to hear and differentiate the different sounds. Paid training is provided.
A background check is required.
For further information and to apply, please go to https://dyslexiareadingconnection.com/emplyment/
We hope you think about joining our team, but before you apply, please consider the following:
We hope for a long-term commitment from our tutors; it is not just a stopping point until another position opens up. You will be working one-on-one with students and a close bond will form. Its hard for them to have to keep switching to different tutors.
Our tutoring does not follow the school calendar. We continue tutoring during summer and school breaks.
New tutors typically start with just one or two students, so your starting hours will be low (1.5 - 3 hr/week). However, more students will become available over time and you could eventually be working as much as 10-20 hr/week.
This is a position that requires a great deal of patience and is often frustrating. But at the same time, there are few jobs that are as gratifying as this one. You will be transforming peoples lives and giving them the gift to be able to succeed in school and the workplace.
