More about AJ Tutoring:

Since 2005, AJ Tutoring has grown almost exclusively via word of mouth because of the outstanding work of our tutors. Our goal is to provide a great tutoring experience for our students and their families, and we work hard to maintain our strong reputation in the Bay Area communities we serve. We have high standards for our tutors (if we hire you, you’re among the best of the best!), and we provide extensive training and support in return.

Many of our tutors have a background in education. However, successful candidates may instead have experience in coaching, youth leadership, camp counseling, mentoring, or the performing arts. If you’re exploring a long-term career path in education, that’s a great fit for us, but tutoring at AJ will help you grow professionally no matter your future career.
