About the role
Start: September 2026 Job Type: Full-Time (30–40 hours/week, W2), Remote (U.S. based) Compensation: $35-40/hour for teaching + $16–20/hour for non-teaching/admin time
Join Think Academy as a full-time G1-G2 Math Teacher. Teach with a structured, high-quality curriculum, receive paid training, and grow into long-term teaching and curriculum roles. We're especially looking for candidates with the potential to grow into a Grade Leader role, taking on teacher mentorship and grade-level management responsibilities as they develop. This is a long-term teaching opportunity — not a short-term tutoring role.
About Think Academy
Think Academy US, a wholly owned subsidiary of TAL Education Group (NYSE: TAL), is a leading education company dedicated to helping K–12 students build strong academic foundations, confidence in math, and long-term learning ability through high-quality teaching and thoughtfully designed curriculum.
Why This Role Is Different
Most teaching roles expect you to build everything yourself. Here, you teach within a structured instructional system — curriculum, lesson materials, training, and team support are already in place, so you can focus on teaching quality and student growth instead of building materials from scratch.
Stronger Teaching Support — high-quality curriculum and lesson materials, structured onboarding, ongoing training, and a team to collaborate with instead of teaching in isolation
A Path to Grade Leader — this role is designed as a talent pipeline for our G1-G2 team. Strong performers may be considered for Grade Leader responsibilities within their first several months, taking on teacher coaching, standard-setting, and grade-level coordination
Competitive, Growing Earnings — paid for both teaching and non-teaching work, with performance-based raises up to 3 times a year, and an end-of-semester commission
What You'll Do
Teach G1-G2 math in a clear, engaging, kids-friendly way, using our curriculum, lesson materials, and instructional guidance.
Lead virtual classes with strong classroom energy, patience, and the ability to hold young students' attention and engagement. Create a warm, positive, high-expectation learning environment suited to early learners
Grade homework, give timely feedback, and communicate proactively and professionally with parents about progress, classroom behavior, and learning habits.
Deeply understand each lesson's teaching goals and common student sticking points, rather than simply following slides
Participate in training, lesson prep, and ongoing professional development; take feedback well and continuously refine your teaching and service habits
Schedule & Commitment
Onboarding starts September 2026; teaching begins October 2026
~3-6 classes/week (6-12 teaching hours), plus admin hours (grading, prep, parent comms) — total 30-40 hrs/week
Class windows (Pacific Time): Wed-Fri, 4pm-8pm and Sat-Sun, 9am-8pm
Once classes are assigned, your schedule stays consistent week to week (except federal holidays)
Commit to at least one year (till May 2027)
Relocation potential: for candidates on the Grade Leader track, we'd like you to be able to relocate to our Bay Area office between November and January, contingent on strong performance in your first few months
