Join Our AoPS Academy as a Teaching Assistant!

Are you enthusiastic about supporting student learning and helping create an engaging, collaborative classroom environment? We have the perfect opportunity for you!

The AoPS Princeton Academy in Princeton, NJ is hiring part-time Teaching Assistants (TAs) with strong math skills to support our campus during the academic year. As a TA you may grade assignments, host regular office hours, and run on-demand 1-1 tutoring sessions. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals who want to work with motivated younger students and contribute to the AoPS Academy community.

Our TAs contribute greatly to the success of our students and are an integral part of our Academy family. This may be a great fit for you if you enjoy interacting with students, guiding them as they work through challenging math and language arts problems, and helping them feel more confident about math and language arts concepts.

Academic year TAs work well independently and support students outside of their regular AoPS class time. TAs typically work with students from various classes/levels to assist with homework and help students understand material they missed or may need further guidance on.
