Part-Time Physics Teacher/Tutor
Job Description
Overview
Oxford Learning Oakville North is growing, and we’re looking for enthusiastic High School Physics Teacher-Tutors to join our award-winning team. This role is perfect for someone who lights up when talking about physics, enjoys working with students, and finds satisfaction in helping students build confidence while mastering challenging scientific concepts.
If you love exploring how the world works — from forces and motion to energy, waves, and electricity — and enjoy helping students understand the “why” behind the formulas, this role could be a great fit for you.
This is a fantastic opportunity for future educators, physics enthusiasts, university students in science or engineering, or anyone considering a career in teaching to gain meaningful experience working directly with students. Many of our instructors find this role incredibly rewarding as they watch students grow not only academically, but also in confidence and motivation.
At Oxford Learning, you won’t just be tutoring. You’ll be mentoring students, inspiring confidence, and helping them discover that physics can actually make sense (and even be fun!).
The best part? No lesson planning required. All lessons are fully prepared through our proprietary Oxford Learning methodology, so you can focus on what matters most: teaching, connecting with students, and making an impact.
If you’re looking for valuable teaching experience, a supportive team environment, and the chance to genuinely change students’ academic journeys, we would love to meet you.
Position Requirements
All Teacher-Tutors at Oxford Learning work during after-school and evening hours (3:00 pm – 8:00 pm) as well as some Saturdays (9:00 am – 1:00 pm).
A commitment until the end of the term in June is preferred. Continuing through the summer and into the coming school year is even better. Your students will love working with you, and reliability is a must.
