Athletics is looking to hire tutors

Posted by Tim on August 28, 2023 in Job Opportunity, Student Job Opportunities, Tutoring

Athletics Tutor
Athlete Academic Affairs in the Division of Athletics at UB is looking for tutor candidates who are completing an
undergraduate, master’s degree or pursuing a doctorate degree to assist in academic achievement, skill enrichment,
and learning strategies with student-athletes. The desired candidate will work with student-athletes, who might be
first-year students (freshmen/transfer), are struggling learners, have a diagnosed disability, are International, or are
high performing students that are looking for extra support in a class.
Objective:
● This position will assist student athletes with a specific class that they may be struggling with, confused
on subject matter or need extra assistance to obtain a higher grade.
Responsibilities:
● Tutoring student-athletes by:
o Implementing college-level academic skills and learning strategies.
o Implementing personal learning skills to re-teach or review classwork and class materials.
o Exam/quiz preparation and review.
o Promoting and facilitating academic and personal growth to help students become independent
learners.
● Documenting on-going student performance and meeting summaries with up-to-date record keeping
through Navigate (UB’s student success portal).
● Building and maintaining thoughtful and professional communication with the Athlete Academic Affairs
Staff.
● Ability to work in a diverse and welcoming environment.
Hours:
● All meetings must take place at the Athlete Academic Affairs Learning Center during business hours
(M-Th 8:30am-8pm, F 8am-4pm, and Sundays 12-6pm).
● The nature of this position is very flexible for both you and your student caseload, however, meeting
days and times should remain consistent throughout the semester.
● Given that you will be meeting with student-athletes anywhere from 1-3 times each week (based on
predetermined need), the meetings should be spread out throughout the week to ensure academic task
completion. For example, meeting with a student 1 hour each day on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday
throughout the semester.
**Ideally looking for candidates that can work 7-15 hours/week across multiple days.
If interested, please email resume and courses you feel confident tutoring to:
