About The Test Guy
The Test Guy is a high-touch tutoring and college counseling company focused on helping students achieve meaningful, lasting growth—not just higher test scores.
We work 1-on-1 with students across the U.S. and internationally, supporting a wide range of learners, including many with learning differences.
Our approach is deeply individualized: we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all strategies. We aim to understand how each student thinks, what motivates them, and how to help them build confidence and independence.
The Role
We are seeking an SAT/ACT tutor who can teach both math and verbal sections (SAT Reading & Writing, SAT Math, ACT English, ACT Math, ACT Reading).
Strategies and methods are customized for each student. You'll be expected to think critically and adapt in real time rather than follow a fixed curriculum.
What You’ll Do
- Tutor students 1-on-1 online
- Teach all sections of the SAT and ACT
- Adapt your teaching style to each student’s learning needs and personality
- Help students build not just content knowledge, but test-taking strategy and confidence
- Write brief lesson notes and action plans after sessions
What We’re Looking For
- Strong proficiency in both SAT/ACT Math and Verbal sections
- Prior test prep tutoring experience preferred, but not required
- Ability to clearly explain concepts at multiple levels (from foundational to advanced)
- Excellent communication and rapport-building skills with teenagers
- Flexible, positive, and patient attitude
- Reliability and professionalism
Schedule & Expectations
- Scheduling is very flexible, as is the number of hours worked
- You'll be expected to have 20 hours of evening and weekend availability (ET), and you're welcome to scale up from there
Why Work With Us
- Highly flexible schedule
- Competitive hourly pay
- Supportive, collaborative team environment
- Opportunities for growth (curriculum, leadership, college counseling)
- Work that is genuinely impactful and rewarding
How to Apply
Please submit:
- Your resume
- A brief note about your tutoring experience and teaching philosophy
- Any relevant test scores (if available)
