Job Description

The High School Tutor Corps Director, which we call the Match Corps Director , is responsible for leading the Match Corps which is a partner program of the GO Fellowship . The position is based at Match High School, located on 1001 Commonwealth Ave. in Brighton. Match Corps tutors provide small group and individualized support to students in math and other areas. The Corps Director will apply their experience as a results-oriented educator to the professional development, individual coaching and management, and curriculum creation for our tutors in order to improve the effectiveness of tutoring and accelerate the learning of our students. The Match Corps Director will work collaboratively with students, teachers, staff, families and our GO partnership team in order to ensure that the Match Corps program is integrated into the schools effectiveness as a whole.

Over twenty years ago, we launched the Match Corps as an intensive and highly selective tutoring program staffed with recent college graduates. These full-time tutors provide Match students with intensive small-group math tutoring and other forms of support integrated into the daily schedule. Tutors receive significant training and professional development to ensure they can provide differentiated, data-driven instruction. Training begins in July with other Go Fellows from across the region and continues at Match during a two-week intensive program prior to students arrival. Throughout the year, tutors have bi-weekly one-on-one meetings with their Corps Director to receive individual feedback and support. In addition to tutoring, Match Corps members partner closely with families through regular communication. Tutors also support the school program with other duties and roles. 

The Match Corps Director reports to the Principal. The compensation for this position starts at an annual salary rate of $108,171 and can be higher based on prior relevant experience.
