- ability to conduct fun, engaging lessons and connect well with a variety of young students
- ability to communicate well with parents

**Benefits**
- medical, dental and vision plan (company splits monthly premium with employee 50/50)
- paid prep time (most other learning centers or tutoring jobs pay by the lesson only)
- student cancellation and termination policies that ensure you are paid for your entire regular schedule even if the student misses or cancels a lesson
- eligibility for a $1-per-lesson-taught bonus and a raise after your first full calendar year of employment
