✅ Will read fun, challenging books that keep him engaged
✅ Encourages critical thinking, vocabulary expansion, and comprehension
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience tutoring reading/literacy or working with motivated readers
Familiarity with phonics-based or comprehension strategies (helpful but not required)
Ability to incorporate games, discussions, or creative approaches
Can adjust the teaching style to match his learning strengths
Schedule & Format:
⏰ Daily sessions preferred (30-60 minutes, flexible timing)
Online via Zoom (We provide)
Why Apply?
If you love working with motivated kids and want to help a tough, committed 14-year-old become a stronger reader, this could be a great match!
To apply, please include:
A brief intro about your experience
Your approach to making reading engaging
A book suggestion or lesson idea for the first session. We have a few as well.
Looking forward to finding the right tutor to keep this reading journey going!
