"I have been tutoring with Nurturing Wisdom for a little over a year and what I thought would just be a 'part-time job' has turned out to be one of the best things I've ever done."
Chicagoland Tutor Bay Area Tutor Tutoring Director
Thanks for your interest in Nurturing Wisdom! We appreciate the time you're investing in learning more about us. All of us that work on the hiring team started with Nurturing Wisdom as tutors. We’re still here, tutoring and doing lots of other stuff, because we LOVE working for NW.
We believe tutoring should be fun! In fact, “if you aren’t having fun, you must be doing something wrong!” We take care to match you with students that you can really help and that you'll enjoy working with.
We want you to feel supported! We will provide each of our tutors with access to lots of orientation activities to help you as a tutor. We provide strategies, resources, and information you need to feel like an expert on tutoring any of our programs. We spend a lot of time helping you develop a methodology specifically for tutoring and give you access to ongoing support and development from our tutoring directors and staff development team.
We want you to feel valued! We know that you bring expertise to your role as a tutor. We know you have the talent to customize our lessons and resources to each of your unique students. We don’t’ want you to read from scripts or follow a “cookie cutter” program.
We want you to be proud of being part of an elite team! We have extremely high standards in the tutors we ask to join our team. Our families trust us to send the best people into their homes. Because of this, we hire less than six percent of the people that apply with us.
