About Rosedale Readers

Rosedale Readers Learning Centre is a private, personalized tutoring service dedicated to supporting students with diverse learning needs. We specialize in individualized instruction for students from Grade 1 and up, with a focus on math, reading, writing, and spelling.

Our math instruction follows a structured, evidence based, multi-sensory approach, designed to build strong foundational skills, develop mathematical reasoning, and help students approach math with greater confidence. Every lesson is explicit, carefully paced, and tailored to each student's unique learning profile.

At Rosedale Readers, we believe every child can succeed when given the right tools and support. Struggling with math or other learning challenges is not a reflection of intelligence or effort. Our goal is to help students strengthen their math skills, build confidence, reduce stress around math, and feel proud of their progress.

The Role

We are looking for a warm, patient, and enthusiastic Math Tutor to join our team as an independent contractor. You will work one on one with students from Grade 1 to Grade 7, delivering structured math lessons at our centre located at 822 Millwood Road, Toronto, ON. Students may have a diagnosed or suspected learning difference, including dyscalculia, and may require additional support with foundational math skills.

A note on the math level: this role covers grade 1 to 7 math only (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, percents, and early algebra). You should be comfortable and confident with math at this level. An advanced math background is not needed. What matters most to us is that you genuinely enjoy working with kids and can pair that with solid foundational math skills.
