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
- Long-Term Career Growth — high performers can grow into Senior Teacher, Teacher Trainer, or Academic Operations/Management roles
- 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 math (up to Pre-Algebra) in a clear, engaging, student-centered way, using our curriculum, lesson materials, and instructional guidance
- Lead virtual classes with ~18 students, creating a positive, high-expectation learning environment
- Grade homework, give timely feedback, and communicate professionally with students/parents on progress and learning plans
- Participate in training, lesson prep, and ongoing professional development
Schedule & Commitment
- ~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)
- We are looking for candidates who can commit to at least one year consistent teaching schedule
Compensation & Benefits
- Teaching Hours: $35-45/hour
- Non-Teaching/Admin Hours: $16-20/hour (grading, class prep, parent communication)
- Performance-based pay increases up to 3 times per year, plus end-of-semester commission targeted at 15-30% of total teaching compensation
- Qualified teachers may be assigned more long-term classes, or have expanded responsibilities
- Benefits: 401(k), health/dental/vision insurance (based on eligibility)
- Visa sponsorship may be considered for long-term, high-performing teachers
Who We're Looking For
- Bachelor's degree or higher from an accredited college or university
- Strong math foundation, comfortable with Pre-Algebra or above; Math, STEM-related, or Education majors preferred
- Available during the class windows above; available on at least one weekend day
- Passion for teaching and supporting student growth; strong communication skills
- Strong service mindset: proactive, comfortable initiating communication with parents, students, and the team, not just delivering lessons
- Open to feedback, self-reflective, and able to quickly adjust your teaching and service approach
- Tutoring, mentoring, coaching, or classroom teaching experience is a plus
- Math competition background (e.g., AMC, Math Kangaroo) is a plus
