AmeriCorps Lead Math Tutor

Saga Education is a national leader in high-impact, in-school tutoring. We leverage the power of human capital and technology to accelerate student outcomes and create more equitable learning for students. Our AmeriCorps members are selected from a diverse group of individuals from various backgrounds across the United States to serve our students as math tutors; each tutor brings their unique skill set to assist students' success. We seek talented, caring, and capable people committed to supporting our students in their academic and social development. Through this service year opportunity, our tutors develop leadership skills, participate in professional development workshops, engage in public speaking, and much more. This is a positive learning experience not only for our students but for our tutors as well! Saga Education's AmeriCorps math tutors manage a small caseload of high school students and promote academic success by focusing intently to provide high-dosage, high-impact tutoring that includes daily individualized instruction to students during their year of service. During a typical school day, tutors will work remotely with students during multiple class periods and facilitate lessons using Saga Connect, our comprehensive online learning platform. Tutors will implement Saga's proprietary curriculum to foster academic success and help students reach their goals. In addition to offering academic support, tutors will serve as advocates and mentors, building strong, meaningful relationships with their students.
