Do you provide a preset curriculum for sessions?
Nope! We trust your expertise in tailoring lessons to each learner’s needs. Let your creativity shine!
Where do classes take place?
All tutoring sessions take place on Lessonspace. (Being comfy with Lessonspace is an important part of being a tutor!) You’ll access your sessions through the Dojo Tutor website; you don’t need your own Lessonspace account.
Applying
What qualifications do I need to tutor on Dojo Tutor?
Our tutors have experience helping kids make learning breakthroughs and love getting them to that “ah-ha” moment. They’re tech-savvy and confident with online teaching tools.
Where can I teach from?
Tutors can teach from anywhere in the U.S. or Mexico with a fast, reliable Internet connection. Some things to keep in mind are:
- Learners and families expect privacy during their sessions; others should not be able to see/hear the session or be in the background
- Families have shared that sessions quiet and free from background noise are the best experience for their learners.
What equipment do I need?
You’ll need to use a laptop or desktop computer. Phones, tablets, and Chromebooks will not provide access to the right features in Lessonspace or create a good teaching environment for families.
What’s the application process like?
Quick and easy!
- Submit your written application - You’ll share your personal details and a brief description of your teaching experience. It takes just a few minutes to complete— access it here. Remember, this is not an application for employment, but to host your tutoring business on Dojo Tutor.
- Complete a background check - If your application is approved, it will be contingent upon a clear background check through Checkr, paid for by ClassDojo.
- Get started! - Once the background check is complete, you’ll be able to fully activate your profile, create classes, and more!
What kind of resources do tutors receive?
We offer these resources to set you up for success:
- Live, optional Onboarding session (60 minutes). Join fellow tutors on Dojo Tutor who will share insights and strategies specific to online tutoring so you can go into your first session with confidence.
- Regular programming from ClassDojo. You’ll get resources to keep you up to date with the latest online learning strategies.
- Access to our private online community for tutors. This is the space to ask your questions, share resources, and lift each other up!
Are tutors ClassDojo employees?
Tutors are not employed by ClassDojo and are classified as independent contractors. You’ll get a 1099 form from our payment platform (Remote); it’s up to you to report income from Dojo Tutor when you file your taxes.
Please note that as a contractor, you would have to be paid more than 600 USD in the previous tax year via the Remote platform to see it.
