Bridges to Readiness is looking for SAT Math virtual tutors to support high school students in reaching college readiness benchmarks. As a tutor, you will work 1:1 with anywhere from one to 10 students for at least 3+ hours a week on the content, mindsets, and skills needed to succeed in college-level math. For our summer programming, you must be available to tutor June 5- Jul 17, 2024 and for virtual training in the afternoon/evening (EST) during the last two weeks of May.
Although this program is mostly virtual, we are looking for Indianapolis, Indiana based tutors who are willing to participate in in-person tutoring on June 5, 2024. Participants in this day would complete in person tutoring with the student you are matched with for the rest of the program, as well as help to facilitate or support SAT prep session content (including SAT Overview, Goal Setting, and SAT Format sessions).
ABOUT BRIDGES TO READINESSResearch shows when students deeply understand core academic content, they are more equipped to persist through postsecondary pathways. However, postsecondary readiness isn’t accessible to all; inequity existed before the pandemic, and the pandemic has exacerbated gaps. In 2020-21, more than one million students—a record high—took the ACT as part of state and district school-day testing. Yet, only 25% of 2021 graduates met all four ACT college readiness benchmarks. And, historically underserved students are less likely to take these assessments; and when they do, their results tend to be lower than their peers. This limits students’ postsecondary opportunities and indicates that they aren’t prepared enough for their future.
The silver lining: rigorous research provides strong evidence that high-dosage tutoring can produce large learning gains for a wide range of students, including those who have experienced learning loss.
At Bridges to Readiness, we believe all students can rise to meet college and career readiness benchmarks, especially when given the right support. Bridges to Readiness exists to advance student preparedness for postsecondary pathways to unlock unlimited futures. Partnering with schools, districts, and other organizations nationwide, we provide high-quality tutoring (Math, English, and ACT/SAT) and instructional experiences for students, and we offer workshops for students and educators around ACT, SAT, English, Math, and postsecondary readiness. Our approach is grounded in students getting access to grade-level, standards-aligned instruction. For English, our curriculum is organized strategically to build knowledge on a variety of high-frequency assessment topics. We use evidence-based instructional methods to scaffold knowledge-building while supporting student comprehension of post-secondary-level syntax and vocabulary. For math, our curriculum is a problem-based approach that focuses on building students’ conceptual understanding of crucial skills correlated to postsecondary academic readiness.
TUTOR RESPONSIBILITIESTo apply, candidates are asked to submit a resume and answers to a few short answer questions. All candidates complete a background check as part of the application and screening process.
The process then includes a content exercise, an interview, reference checks, and an offer.
Our hiring process has built-in content knowledge checks and opportunities to demonstrate strong pedagogical practices while giving you the chance to showcase your learner orientation.
The entire process from start to finish will take anywhere from 2-8 weeks.
READY TO JOIN US?Submit your application no later than April 29, 2024 (the sooner, the better!). We anticipate launching training in the afternoon/evening at the end of May 2024, and beginning to work directly with students in June 2024.
