We are fully staffed for Summer and Fall 2025 and are not hiring any more writing tutors at this time. Please follow our Instagram and/or sign up for our newsletter for the most up-to-date announcements on future job opportunities.

Undergraduate writing tutors meet one-on-one with Temple students from all different majors and programs, with all different types of writing. A typical day may have you brainstorming about virtue in The Epic of Gilgamesh, jointly crafting a catchy opening for a study abroad essay to Tokyo, or helping streamline a business proposal for a food truck startup.

Writing tutors start at $15/hour and typically work 4-12 hours per week; the hours are flexible and can be scheduled around other obligations.

Who can apply:

All undergraduate students (any major, any department) are eligible to apply. You must be able to work from Charles Library on Temple's main campus in Philadelphia. We seek students who are strong academic writers, as evidenced by their writing samples. We particularly welcome applicants who

• have previous experience tutoring or teaching,
• are active leaders on campus,
• are empathetic listeners, and
• enjoy working one-on-one and with a team in a fast-paced environment.

How to apply:

Complete the application form and submit the following materials (through the form):

• Cover Letter
• Résumé
• 3 recent academic writing samples (from Temple coursework only)

Application Deadline:

The deadline for undergraduate writing tutor applications has passed. We are no longer hiring new writing tutors for Summer or Fall 2025.
