Tutoring ; CUNY

Hello CUNY students! We are excited to connect with you about joining our team of NYC-based tutors. Toolkit Tutors works with NYCDOE schools to provide structured, high-impact tutoring that helps students build confidence, master content, and ace their exams. Our tutors work across all subjects and grade levels, with a focus on small-group and one-on-one instruction. What sets Toolkit apart is that our tutors don't just teach content: they also coach students in personal organization and study skills so they can become self-sufficient learners.

As a tutor, you'll work part‑time (2-3 days per week, 4-6 hours per day), with tutoring taking place during the school day at the school site. Each day you will see 4‑5 groups of students. We provide all the curriculum and materials you'll need to run a great tutoring session.
