Help others using your passion for teaching

Top Tier Tutors strives to achieve excellence through hard work and reliability. We provide personalised service to both tutors and families.

We constantly seek enthusiastic and reliable tutors to join our multi-skilled tutoring team. Specifically, individuals who have excelled academically, have a passion for educating and inspiring others and are currently studying or have completed their tertiary studies at an accredited tertiary institution.

 

We purposefully keep our team relatively small to ensure each tutor is provided the opportunity to connect with one or more learners consistently. In saying that, it’s encouraged that all tutors teach two or more subjects to matric or specialise in foundation and intermediate phase but facilitate all subjects within their phases.

Please see the criteria needed to move forward with your application:

  • 75% for your grade 12 subject/s allows you to teach that subject up to grade 9
  • 80% for your grade 12 subject/s allows you to teach that subject up to grade 12
  • If you don’t meet the above criteria but achieved 75% for the said subject at university, we will consider your application to teach the subject at school level
  • Stable and reliable internet connection – a minimum of 30 Mbps upload and download speed, a reliable laptop or computer and a good quality headset, the criteria of which is discussed later.
  • You must be able to teach at least one subject to matric as well as one other to grade 9
