JOB OVERVIEW

Patient Online Maths Tutor for 11-Year-Old with ADHD (Fluent English, Long-Term, Ongoing)

We're a Sydney (Australia) family looking for a patient, reliable online maths tutor for our 11-year-old son. This is a long-term, ongoing role — we're looking for the right person to stay with us and become a consistent, trusted part of his week.

**Who we're looking for:**
- An experienced teacher or tutor who is genuinely good with children who find learning hard
- Strong at teaching primary / early-secondary maths
- Experience with ADHD, learning difficulties, or struggling learners (a background in Special Education is a plus, but not essential — what matters most is patience and the right approach)
- Clear, fluent spoken English — essential, as our son has a speech delay and English is his second language (Spanish is spoken at home)

**About our son:**
He is in Year 6 (NSW/Australian curriculum), friendly, hard-working and keen to do well. He has ADHD and a language impairment. He is actually **quick and confident with maths facts** (addition, multiplication) — his difficulty is not number facts. Where he struggles is **word problems, place value, time, money, and fractions**, because these need reading comprehension and holding several steps in mind at once. He is a strong **visual, hands-on learner** — he understands best when problems are drawn out, colour-coded, and worked step by step. He responds beautifully to patience, warmth and praise. We'll provide a short briefing on how he learns best, plus specific strategies from his learning assessment.

**What the sessions cover (two parts):**
1. First, support and complete his weekly Year 6 maths homework.
2. Then continue on Khan Academy, which we've set up to track his mastery. His maths has gaps going back to Year 3–4, so Khan Academy is how we fill those gaps and level him up at his own pace.

**How he needs to be taught (very important):**
- One or two steps at a time, spoken and written — he has very limited working memory, so never explain several steps at once
- Teach him to read word problems carefully: highlight/underline key numbers and words, and have him say the strategy out loud before solving
- Record every step on the shared whiteboard — don't let him do it all in his head
- Short blocks with a movement break — each 40-minute session runs as two shorter blocks with a break, not one long stretch
- Lots of visuals; check understanding by having him explain it back in his own words
- He needs time to complete tasks — patience is essential, not an inconvenience
- Praise effort, correct gently — he loses confidence quickly

**Schedule (40-minute sessions):**
- Every weekday: 5:30–6:10pm Sydney time (3:30pm Manila time)
- Saturday: 2:30–3:10pm Sydney time (12:30pm Manila time)
- Please confirm you can commit to these times consistently.

**Technology required:**
- A drawing / pen tablet (XP-Pen, Huion, or Wacom) to write out equations live — our son writes on his own XP-Pen tablet during sessions
- Comfortable using a shared online whiteboard (Zoom Whiteboard, Microsoft Whiteboard, or similar) alongside video
- Reliable computer, webcam, and stable internet

**Also expected:**
- A brief weekly written report on what was covered and how he's progressing

**Please answer these in your application (we read them carefully):**
1. What is your teaching qualification and experience?
2. How do you help a child who is good at number facts but struggles with maths word problems?
3. How do you teach a child who has trouble holding several steps in their head at once?
4. What experience do you have with ADHD or children who find learning hard?
5. Do you have a drawing tablet and can you use a shared online whiteboard? Please confirm.
6. Please confirm you can commit to the schedule above, and tell us a little about why you'd enjoy this role.

We'll shortlist based on your answers and arrange a short paid trial session before confirming the ongoing role.
