How are tutors scheduled?

Littera tutors set their availability in their tutor dashboard. Sessions are offered at Littera Monday to Friday, with session times generally between 8am ET to 9pm ET. Tutors share the subjects and levels of interest to tutor and open calendar availability. Curriculum is provided for all sessions. Following a complete tutor profile, and a review of the curriculum platform(s), the platform begins to seek to match a tutor with an ongoing program series.

The platform may match a tutor with a tutoring series quickly, or the platform may continue to search for a match for the tutor over a number of weeks, based on the incoming student subjects/levels/schedule, and the tutor profile.

Littera prioritizes a consistent student:tutor relationship. Tutors are matched with the same student(s) a few times each week, for a series of weeks, as part of the tutoring program. Opening consistent calendar availability, week to week, is requested.

Pay Rate: $18 per hour

Optional: Tutors may choose to successfully complete an Algebra I assessment and earn $22 per hour for any high school Algebra I, Algebra II, or Geometry tutoring sessions.
