Job Description

An online tutoring platform in Durban Central needs a patient tutor who can turn a failing mark into a pass. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

The site is in Durban Central; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

The work, day to day

Teach one-on-one or in small groups of up to six
Write a short progress note for parents after each session
Work through past exam papers and marking memos with learners
Prepare learners for control tests with short timed practice drills
Adjust your pace for learners with ADHD, dyslexia or anxiety

What you need

Clear, patient way of explaining ideas
Available at least three afternoons or evenings a week
Distinction or strong pass in the subject you'll tutor
Police clearance for work with minors
Currently studying at university, or holding a degree or diploma
Reliable internet and a quiet place to teach for online posts

Helpful, not essential

Remedial or learning support training
TEFL or TESOL certificate for English tutoring

On offer

Work from home on online posts
Flexible hours you choose each week
Free training on the tutoring platform

Applying, step by step

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Keep copies of these ready to send: proof of current studies or completed qualification plus police clearance for tutoring children.
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Durban Central.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

Record a two-minute video explaining one tough concept; it often gets you booked faster than a CV.
Lead with your own mark in the subject, such as "Maths 89% (NSC)"; tutoring agencies filter by marks.
