Help students learn. Build experience. Earn doing it.

We demand quantifiable proof of mastery to ensure our tutors are true experts in their subject matter. To verify your knowledge, all applicants must submit one of the following for thorough review: official Standardized Test Scores (SAT, ACT, PSAT) or an official High School Transcript. This commitment guarantees that every Fellow possesses the verified academic foundation necessary to teach the material effectively and confidently, upholding the high standards of expertise parents expect from Learn Fellow.

To transition from a great student to a great mentor, every accepted candidate must complete a professional training step. This includes thoughtful responses to detailed application questions, followed by the mandatory completion of a professional teaching course such as the Skillshare “Learn the Art of Teaching Skills, Coaching & Mentoring to Educate & Train Others” by Arman Chowdhury. This ensures proficiency in instructional best practices, safety protocols, and professional conduct. Finally, all tutors must sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) to formally secure student privacy and guarantee full compliance with our platform's safety standards.

Beyond test scores, we vet for character, reliability, and professionalism—qualities essential for successful peer mentorship. Every applicant must secure a minimum of two professional referrals from non-family adults, such as former teachers, coaches, or employers. These endorsements are sent directly to the Learn Fellow administration, providing us with vital third-party insight into the tutor’s integrity, communication skills, and responsibility when working with others.
