The McGill Tutorial Service recruits tutors on an ongoing basis throughout the academic year for all courses offered by the university. This is a part-time, academic casual position for students who are currently enrolled as McGill students and who possess a CGPA of 3.2 or higher. Undergraduate tutors are paid $18/hour and graduate tutors $22/hr. Tutoring sessions are currently held online and in person. Tutors are expected to be able to help peers better understand the course content. Tutors must be prepared for all tutoring sessions by asking tutees, when scheduling the session, which area of the course they would like to focus on. Tutors should not complete the homework or assignments for tutees.

Additional information:  In your application, please clearly identify the courses (names and numbers) that you are confident you have the ability to positively impact a student‘s comprehension of the subject matter, the semester(s) you are available, and which campus (downtown or Macdonald) you are willing to travel to for the session(s) once in person meetings resume.

You must submit a Word document with the following information as part of your application:

McGill University is committed to equity and diversity within its community and values academic rigour and excellence. We welcome and encourage applications from racialized persons/visible minorities, women, Indigenous persons, persons with disabilities, ethnic minorities, and persons of minority sexual orientations and gender identities, as well as from all qualified candidates with the skills and knowledge to engage productively with diverse communities.

At McGill, research that reflects diverse intellectual traditions, methodologies, and modes of dissemination and translation is valued and encouraged. Candidates are invited to demonstrate their research impact both within and across academic disciplines and in other sectors, such as government, communities, or industry.

McGill further recognizes and fairly considers the impact of leaves (e.g., family care or health-related) that may contribute to career interruptions or slowdowns. Candidates are encouraged to signal any leave that affected productivity, or that may have had an effect on their career path. This information will be considered to ensure the equitable assessment of the candidate’s record.

McGill implements an employment equity program and encourages members of designated equity groups to self-identify. It further seeks to ensure the equitable treatment and full inclusion of persons with disabilities by striving for the implementation of universal design principles transversally, across all facets of the University community, and through accommodation policies and procedures.
