Online School Grader, Teaching Assistant, Moderator

Remote (Worldwide) Freelance

Art of Problem Solving (AoPS) develops educational opportunities for many of the most eager students in the world. Since 2003, we have trained tens of thousands of the country’s top students, including nearly all the members of the US International Math Olympiad team, through our online school, learning centers, textbooks, and online learning systems. Over the years, our international online community of advanced problem solvers has grown to over 900,000 members. While our primary focus has been math for most of our history, we have expanded into new subjects, such as language arts, science, and computer science.

AoPS Online is our original online education experience, and is independent from AoPS Academy. AoPS Online offers rigorous, high-quality math curriculum and online STEM classes for middle and high school students to help them expand and deepen their mathematical thinking. We also offer specialty courses to prepare students for particular math and science competitions. Our current offerings include math, Python, chemistry, and physics. For more information on our classes and to see a list of full offerings, check out our course catalog.

Our online positions are an excellent opportunity for developing mentoring skills and earning money remotely in a flexible, convenient fashion. In this role, you can choose to do any of the following tasks:

Grader

Thousands of writing problems are collected every week. Graders provide guidance and personalized feedback about what the student did well and how they can improve. Grading can be done at any time.
