We are now hiring new writing tutors for the Fall 2025 semester!
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 earn $15/hour and typically work 4-15 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. 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 is Tuesday, April 15, at 11:59pm. If you have any questions about the position that you are unable to answer by perusing our website, please email Stephen D. Kelly.
