[Hiring] Test Prep Tutor & Essay Specialist @College Flight Path

Role Description

College Flight Path is hiring a full-time, remote Test Prep Tutor & Essay Specialist to help students reach their goals on standardized tests and in their college applications. This role centers on SAT, ACT, and PSAT preparation and college essay review.

The right person for this role is never finished learning. Test formats change, scoring and admissions policies shift, and every student teaches us something new about how people learn. We are looking for someone who treats that as the best part of the work:

• Studies their own results.
• Asks for feedback.
• Sharpens their methods every season.
• Brings what they learn back to the team.

You will report to Senior College Counselor Stacy Soricelli and work closely with Stacy and CEO Lynne Fuller. As part of a small, mission-driven team, you will have a direct impact on student outcomes and help shape how College Flight Path delivers test prep and essay support.

Qualifications

• Must be based in Delaware, New Jersey, or Pennsylvania — this is a firm eligibility requirement; candidates residing elsewhere will not be considered.
• Undergraduate degree in Counseling, Education, or a related field. Master’s preferred.
• 3+ years of experience in admissions, test prep, education, or counseling; SAT, ACT, or PSAT tutoring experience strongly preferred.
• Personal SAT score of 1450 or higher, or ACT composite of 32 or higher (roughly the top 5% of test takers).
• Experience guiding high school students, with an understanding that college success is multifaceted.
• Familiarity with student financial aid policies and resources.
• Familiarity with tools like College Board, ACT Student, AP Classroom, Common App, Naviance, Scoir, or similar platforms.

Requirements

• Deep command of SAT, ACT, and PSAT content, question types, and test-taking strategy.
• Ability to explain complex concepts clearly and adapt instruction to different learning styles and skill levels.
• Strong writing and editing skills, with an ear for helping students tell their own stories.
• Strong strategic and analytical thinking — able to interpret student profiles and practice test results.
• A commitment to continuous improvement: curious, coachable, and eager to refine your own practice through feedback.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills to connect with students and families.
• Ability to work collaboratively with educational professionals as part of a small, remote team.
• Organized, reliable, and able to manage a full schedule of students and deadlines.
• Familiarity with (or willingness to learn) Google Workspace, HubSpot, Monday.com, and Zoom.
• Comfortable using AI tools such as Claude and Perplexity to support research, planning, and material development.
• Strong Interest Inventory certification is a plus.

Benefits

• Full-time salaried position — $80,000 to $100,000 per year, depending on experience.
• Benefits include paid time off, a retirement account with employer match, and professional development support for ongoing training and growth.
• Remote position. You will need a private, quiet workspace for student sessions, a personal computer, and a reliable internet connection.
• Student sessions take place primarily after school, requiring regular evening and some weekend hours.
