Early Reading Specialist (Ages 3–6) – Private In‑Home Tutoring - Part-Time Contact Position

Job Summary

We are hiring experienced early‑childhood educators (ages 3–6) with a strong phonics background for private, in‑home literacy tutoring to join our team as part‑time 1099 contractors or full‑time W2 tutors. Only applicants with direct experience teaching 3–6‑year‑olds will be considered. Our program specializes in teaching children ages 2.5 to 7 how to read and write using a structured phonics approach that builds confidence and prepares students to excel in 1st grade and beyond.

This is not a babysitting role. Tutors deliver structured, high‑quality literacy lessons using a proven phonics curriculum. Lessons are fast‑paced, interactive, and designed for early readers ages 3–6.

Tutors provide one‑on‑one, in‑home lessons for families in Key Biscayne, Miami Beach and Bal Harbour. Because this role involves working directly with our private clients, all tutors must sign a contract agreement that includes a non‑compete clause specific to private tutoring. This ensures that families remain within our program and that tutors do not offer competing services to current or prospective clients outside of the company.

We are looking for warm, reliable educators who are excited to work with young learners long‑term.
