DESCRIPTION

We are thrilled to offer an exciting opportunity for a passionate, committed and organised individual to join us as a Victorian Select Entry Tutor at Contour TestPrep.
This is not just an ordinary tutoring position; it’s an opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the lives of Year 7 and 8 students seeking entry into some of Victoria’s most highly sought-after high schools. Many of these students feel daunted and overwhelmed by the Select Entry exam, and are misguided throughout their preparation due to a lack of effective support.
In this highly sought-after Select Entry Tutor role, you will have the chance to mentor and guide these students, providing them with the knowledge and confidence they need to excel in their exams. From teaching small group classes to mentoring students 1-on-1, your contribution will ensure our Select Entry Program is a personalised and attentive community for our students. You’ll be given access to high-quality teaching materials and will be required to do minimal administrative tasks, allowing you to focus primarily on what you do best - tutoring and inspiring students to reach their full potential!
