I am a 2018 alum of Queens College currently working as the tutoring services manager at a small business and academic support center located in Queens Village. Our business has been committed to providing quality educational support in the form of tutoring services and after school programs to our local community since 2009, and as the company has expanded to two centers, we are now looking to expand our staff by acquiring the best possible talent for academic support for students in an urban environment. We are committed to a pragmatic and existentialist approach to education by which we believe that through hands-on engagement with curricular exercises and goals, as well as a focus on the importance of community-minded ethical commitments in pedagogical instruction allow for students to learn to create meaning in their own lives so that they are better prepared as learners to navigate a complex and heterogeneous world filled with opportunities to provide betterment for all. Knowing Queens College and their commitment to urban education, I am reaching out to you to ask that you might be able to circulate this job posting, which will be below the dashed line in this email. We are particularly looking for tutors with flexible schedules who are competent in secondary math and science education, but especially in geometry, trigonometry, chemistry, physics, and biology. We have seen a huge influx is the demand for our tutoring services among high school parents for these subjects and would appreciate your help in the matter of acquiring new talent.
