About the Role
At Tutor Me Education, we connect passionate educators with neurodivergent students for high-impact, 1:1 in-home tutoring.

Adapt academic materials to each student's unique learning profile
Track progress after each session and keep open, empathetic communication with parents and guardians
Foster a safe, inclusive environment that builds confidence and resilience
Who We're Looking For AA, BA, or higher (Special Education, Psychology, or Education preferred)
Hands-on experience supporting students with special needs or learning differences (e.g., ASD, ADHD, Dyslexia) — currently enrolled college students with this experience are encouraged to apply
Empathy, patience, and a student-first approach
Reliable vehicle for local travel to client homes
Ability to pass a background check
Bilingual (Spanish/English) a strong plus — premium rates available for bilingual matches
Pay
$25–$35+ per hour, based on your credentials, specialization, and the needs of the student you're matched with. Most roles fall in the $25–$35+ range; higher rates apply for credentialed or specialized tutors, higher-need cases, and bilingual (Spanish/English) matches.
