What you do

  • Teach one learner at a time in a subject you know well, following the syllabus and the exam that learner is working towards.
  • Open each new match with a short diagnostic lesson, then write a plan for the weeks up to the learner's next test or exam.
  • Prepare every lesson in advance: the worked examples, the past-paper questions and the one skill the session sets out to build.
  • Use a shared screen or digital whiteboard so the learner sees each step of a solution, a text or a pronunciation as you work through it.
  • Set focused practice between lessons and mark it before the next session.
  • Record each lesson on the platform with its topic and a line on the learner's progress.
  • Keep lesson messages on the agreed channel and reschedule through the team when a slot has to move.

What you bring

  • A university degree in or close to the subject you teach, or a recognised Quran memorisation and tajweed background for Quran roles.
  • Firm command of the curriculum you apply for, from its chapter order to the shape of its exam papers.
  • Fluent teaching language for your subject: Arabic, English, German, or both Arabic and English for bilingual curricula.
  • A laptop or desktop computer, a headset, a quiet room and a stable home internet connection.
  • Comfort running a lesson on Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams.
  • Living in Egypt and keeping to Cairo time for every booked lesson.

Skills that show in a lesson

  • Planning backwards from an exam date.
  • Writing clearly on a digital whiteboard or tablet.

Who can apply

We are looking for tutors who explain well

Faculty of education graduates

From any faculty of education in Egypt, whether you graduated this year or years ago. New graduates are welcome: tell us what you have taught so far, even informally or as a volunteer.

Graduates of the subject

A degree in science, languages, commerce, Arabic or another subject you know deeply, and the patience to explain it.

Teachers outside government employment

Teachers who have left government service, freelance tutors, and teachers of languages and international curricula. If you work at a school or a university today, read below what the rules mean for your application.

Quran and Arabic teachers

For memorisation, tajweed and Arabic for non-native speakers. Mention an ijaza only if you hold one.

What we look for

Five things that matter to us

  • Clear explanation, step by step, until the learner understands.
  • Respect for every learner, of every age and every faith.
  • Safe, professional conduct with young learners, with every lesson on the video platform.
  • Reliability: on time, and a message in good time when something changes.
  • A steady internet connection, a quiet place and a camera.

How it works

How we match you with learners

We match by subject, curriculum, stage and hours, so every learner we bring you studies what you teach, at the hours you keep free.

  1. 1

    You apply

    This form, in a few minutes: your name, your email and your WhatsApp number.

  2. 2

    We get to know you

    A person reads your application and contacts you. We may ask for a five-minute teaching recording and a short video call.

  3. 3

    A learner fits

    When a learner’s enquiry matches your subject, their stage and your hours, we tell you about it, and the decision is yours.

  4. 4

    You teach online

    Lessons run on Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams. WhatsApp carries messages only, since its calls are unreliable on some Egyptian networks.

Where and when

Online only, in Cairo time, for Egypt and the Gulf

Every lesson is online. We arrange lessons on video platforms only, so you teach from wherever you live in Egypt, with no travel.

You set your hours in Cairo time. Egypt keeps summer time from the last Friday of April to the last Thursday of October, and your hours follow the Cairo clock.

Egyptian learners in the Gulf include pupils who study the Egyptian curriculum from abroad: in 2024/25, 113,743 pupils sat the ministry’s exams for Egyptian pupils abroad. A Cairo evening is an evening for them too.

Some roles need a closer look

What Egyptian rules mean for your role

Egyptian rules restrict private lessons for some roles: teachers and staff at schools below university, university teaching staff, and civil servants during leave. We want every tutor to teach within the rules of their own job.

If you hold one of these roles, you can still apply. A person reviews your application before anything else, nothing is set up automatically, and we contact you to talk it through.

That is why this page speaks first to graduates and to teachers outside government employment, whose applications move straight from review to matching with learners.

What you can teach here

Tutor jobs online in Egypt with this brand reach across eight curricula and 33 programmes, so a graduate in almost any academic field finds learners who need exactly what they studied. The range runs from a Primary 1 pupil following the Egyptian syllabus to a working adult preparing for a German exam, and every one of them is taught one to one.

The curricula and a sample of what each asks of its tutors:

  • Egyptian Baccalaureate, Secondary 2: Arabic, English, Egyptian history, and the track subjects, from mathematics and physics on the Medicine and Life Sciences track to chemistry, programming and AI on the Engineering track and accounting on the Business track.
  • Thanaweya Amma: physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, English and Arabic for the final secondary year and its national exam.
  • The Egyptian curriculum abroad: the full ministry syllabus at primary, preparatory and secondary level for Egyptian pupils living outside the country.
  • National identity subjects: Arabic and social studies for international-school learners, and Arabic with history for the secondary equivalency.
  • IGCSE: mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and English as a Second Language, including the Egypt syllabus 0465.
  • American Diploma tests: SAT and EST preparation for learners heading to Egyptian universities.
  • Languages: IELTS preparation, English for work, and German from A1 to B1 for study and work.
  • Quran and Arabic: memorisation, tajweed through to ijaza, and Arabic for non-native speakers.

Admissions tests with a hard number attached

SAT and EST learners arrive with a target score in mind. Ain Shams University (opens in a new tab) publishes the admission rule for American Diploma holders: Egyptian universities count the SAT, with a minimum of 1050 out of 1600 for government faculties, and treat the EST and ACT as equivalents. A tutor in this lane works from a diagnostic score towards that line, section by section, with timed practice in the final weeks.

How the school year turns for a tutor

Demand follows the calendar of the Ministry of Education, and a tutor who knows its rhythm plans their own year around it. The 2026/2027 year has 183 study days.

What each stretch asks of you:

  • September and October: new matches arrive fast as learners settle into their timetables. Diagnostic lessons and plans dominate these weeks.
  • November to January: steady weekly lessons, then revision for first-term exams. The midyear break opens daytime slots for catch-up blocks.
  • February to April: the second term brings fresh units and the run-up to final exams, and IGCSE learners move into past-paper practice.
  • The exam season: Secondary 2 Baccalaureate learners sit their compulsory free first attempt, with an optional second one in July, and the Thanaweya Amma 2027 first round (opens in a new tab) runs from 26 June to 21 July 2027.
  • Summer: language learners, SAT and EST candidates, Quran memorisation and early starters for the next year fill the calendar once schools close.

Teaching Egyptian learners abroad

Many learners on this network live outside Egypt and still follow the Egyptian syllabus. The ministry runs its own exams for them, known as «أبناؤنا في الخارج», from Primary 1 to Secondary 2, and Al Dostor reported (opens in a new tab) that 113,743 pupils sat the first round in 2024/25. These learners need a tutor who knows the Egyptian textbooks chapter by chapter and can cover a whole term's content in fewer school hours than a pupil at home receives.

Every lesson is booked in Cairo time, and the learner's side works out their own clock. Egypt keeps summer time from the last Friday of April to the last Thursday of October under Law 24 of 2023, so a standing evening slot can shift by an hour for a learner whose country keeps one time all year. A quick check of the next week's bookings at each changeover keeps every lesson where both of you expect it.

Your first month with us

  1. Set out your subjects

    You confirm the curricula, levels and exam boards you teach, and the weekly hours you can hold steady through a term.

  2. Meet your first learner

    Your first lesson with each learner is a diagnostic: a few questions from each unit, a look at recent work, and a conversation about the next test date.

  3. Write the plan

    Within the first week you map the chapters to the weeks left before the learner's exam, so each lesson has a place in a sequence.

  4. Record as you go

    Each lesson goes on the platform with its topic and a progress line. That record is what the team reads to support you and the learner.

  5. Review at four weeks

    At the end of the month you look back at the plan with the learner and adjust the pace for the term ahead.

A learner who wants a different tutor gets one free of charge, and the team handles that change quietly. For you it means each learner you keep has chosen to stay, which is the clearest signal of good teaching any tutor can have. A network of more than 1,800 Egyptian tutors grew on exactly that standard.

The craft of a one-to-one lesson on screen

A screen changes how a lesson feels. The learner sees your workings at close range, every pause is visible, and attention drifts faster once the camera turns away from the page. The tutors who do best here shape the hour deliberately.

  1. Open with recall. Two or three quick questions from the last lesson show what stuck before anything new begins.
  2. Write live. Solve the example on a shared whiteboard or a tablet, one line at a time, and ask the learner for the next step before you write it.
  3. Hand over the pen. Give the learner annotation control or have them hold their notebook to the camera, so you see their method and their mistakes.
  4. Use real exam material. A past-paper question in its original wording teaches the command words and the mark scheme along with the content.
  5. Close with a summary the learner says aloud. Then set short practice and note it in the lesson record.

Language and Quran lessons add their own demands. An IELTS speaking session needs a clean microphone and a timer on screen; a tajweed lesson depends on hearing each letter's articulation clearly, so a good headset matters as much as subject knowledge. Arabic for non-native speakers often starts with a learner who reads slowly in a second script, and patience with that pace is part of the role.
