About
Revolution Prep is looking for teachers and tutors to join our online faculty. We look for educators who believe in the value of one-on-one instruction and personalized lesson plans and who have a strong desire to help students achieve their educational dreams.
Over the last 16 years, Revolution Prep has worked with over 1 million students to raise grades and test scores and build stronger, more confident learners. As a faculty member, you will provide individual instruction to students in grades 6-12 from all over the world through our online classroom.
Faculty members work from home and set their own schedule; they provide 35 hours of availability per week with a goal of averaging at least 28 hours of instruction per week, and are permitted to take 1-2 full days off per week. Tutors provide their 35 hours availability within our peak tutoring hours: 2pm-10pm PST (Monday through Friday), 5am-7pm PST (Saturday), and 5am-9pm PST (Sunday). In addition to teaching students, you will join an educational community of like-minded peers and participate in weekly small group meetings to learn and share best practices.
