Real-Time Online Math Tutor - Short Support Sessions

This is a fully online teaching opportunity supporting students enrolled in mainstream schools, homeschool programmes, AP courses, and supplemental mathematics programmes.

This is not a traditional classroom teaching role. Teachers provide short-form, live academic assistance to students who join an online support platform when they get stuck on a maths problem, concept, method, or theory. Sessions are typically around 10 minutes long and focus on direct, snapshot-style support.

Students may require assistance with:

• Working through equations or problem-solving methods
• Understanding mathematical theories or concepts
• Clarifying homework or practice activities
• AP-level and advanced mathematics support

If a student requires extensive intervention or ongoing academic support, they are referred back to their primary/full-time teacher.

• A completed tertiary qualification in:
  • Mathematics, OR
  • B.Ed FET with Mathematics as a core module/major
