Smarthinking, a Pearson service unit, is hiring experienced, educated individuals to serve as part-time online tutors. Smarthinking provides online tutoring to students and clients from middle school through graduate degrees. Online writing tutors provide both real-time, audio-enabled sessions and asynchronous writing reviews for students at various academic levels as they learn to become more effective writers. Tutors can work from any location with computer and Internet access.
Each term (spring, summer, fall) tutors have a set weekly schedule—typically between 8-19 hours per week—based on their scheduling preferences. The tutor hiring timeline is largely as follows: screening and hiring in June; tutor training in July/August; fall schedules set in July/August; fall term shifts begin in September.

Direct any questions about this writing position to [email protected].
