Below we describe the prerequisites of our tutors. If you feel you satisfy them and share our project, start your application!
IB Experience
To teach with us you must have personal experience of the IB Diploma - either as a teacher or as a student.

Tutti i nostri tutors hanno dimostrato di eccellere accademicamente durante il loro corso di studio - sia alle superiori che all'università.
Eclecticism
What background and passions make you a unique mentor, beyond academic ability?
Flexibility
Due to the schedules of families and students, it is essential to have great freedom in managing your time to work with us.
Desire to improve
All our tutors undertake a path aimed at improving their qualities as teachers - through training and feedback.

​
Paragraph 3: A brief summary of your teaching experience and your personal teaching style; your interests outside of school and work.

Academic interview
If your qualifications and experience are compatible with our prerequisites, you will receive an invitation for a Zoom interview with our Founding Director, Roberto Valdo Cortese, and our Head of Tutoring, Emma Russo.
The interview will consist of the simulation of an online lesson.
​
You will then be assessed based on the following characteristics:
​
-
Interactivity
-
Accuracy of explanations
-
Knowledge of the material
-
Presentation
-
Ability to react to student feedback
​
The interview will also be an opportunity to evaluate whether our teaching styles are compatible.
During the session, you will discuss the details of our pedagogy - simulating lecture excerpts and tackling case studies where you will be asked to improvise.
​
At this stage, you will be assessed on your ability to improve your teaching style, and align with the style we expect from the tutors we represent.
​
In some cases where the outcome of the interview is unclear to us, it will be deemed necessary to carry out further interviews.
