At Educational Connections, our mission is student success.
Our team does all the backend work so our tutors and coaches can focus their efforts on what they love— teaching!
- Maybe you’re already a top-notch educator but are overwhelmed by the idea of finding clients and marketing yourself.
- Maybe you have a knack for teaching and are a math whiz, a master writer, or aced your SATs, but you don’t know the first thing about rates, contracts, or referrals.
- Or maybe you’re a professional who’s passionate about working with kids, but you simply don’t have the time to go out and find the work yourself.
At Educational Connections you’ll enjoy the convenience of being able to set your own hours, work remotely, earn competitive pay, and tutor students who are ready to succeed.
We handle the arduous stuff: securing your clients, billing them directly, and allowing you to focus on teaching!
