Join the Massachusetts Migrant Education Program (MMEP) as an English Language Instructor and play a vital role in supporting the academic success of migrant students at the elementary, middle and high school levels!

We are particularly looking for tutors in the Boston Metro and New Bedford areas.

What you will do

As a part-time Home-Based Tutor, you will provide instructional support and homework assistance to individual and small groups of students. Visits will range from 45-90 minutes per visit with 1-2 visits per week. Visits can take place at the student’s home or in school, library or another public space nearby. When appropriate and applicable, tutoring may also occur remotely via Google Meet or other appropriate on-line platforms.

This position offers a chance to make a direct impact on students' lives and requires a flexible schedule, including evenings, to accommodate student availability.

What we are looking for

We are seeking a dedicated instructor with a passion for supporting English Language Learners. You must have:

• Bachelor's degree or at least two years of work experience teaching high school-aged English Language Learners.

• Bilingual fluency in English and Spanish is absolutely required.

• Comfort and familiarity with learning and social media platforms like WhatsApp, Google Classroom, and Google Meet are essential, as instruction may involve blended learning tools.

While not required, a valid Massachusetts Teacher Certification or TESOL Certification and three years of teaching experience are highly preferred.

Success in this role demands a positive mindset, strong communication skills across diverse cultural backgrounds, and the ability to operate effectively with computer and remote learning technologies.

This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to a meaningful program, with a competitive wage of $31.60 per hour for 10-15 hours per week, depending on program needs. If you are ready to use your skills to empower youth and are comfortable with a flexible schedule that includes evenings and weekends, we encourage you to apply!
