Work as a Homework Helper in Trollhättan!

Do you want to make a difference? Nearly 20,000 students did not complete compulsory school in Sweden during the 2024/2025 school year. There are schools where 7 out of 10 students do not meet upper secondary school eligibility. At the non-profit Stiftelsen Läxhjälpen, you contribute your skills and commitment to help more students achieve eligibility requirements with confidence for the future. We are now looking for new homework helpers in Trollhättan! We are seeking someone interested in a paid part-time job who also wants to make a concrete social impact. The position is hourly employment in the afternoons/evenings and involves being a homework helper after school at one of our partner schools. You work in a team of three homework helpers, all of whom are university students. You will receive training in and work according to our structured approach. Each homework help group consists of 15 students, and together with your colleagues, you are responsible for planning, implementing, and following up on the work. As a homework helper, you can work either as a regular homework helper or as a substitute. As a regular homework helper, you work 6 hours per week spread over two scheduled afternoons/evenings (opportunities for extra substitute shifts available). As a substitute, you work when regular homework helpers are on leave or sick. The work is performed after school in the school's facilities. We are looking for someone who: - Is a university or college student - Has pedagogical skills and can communicate and build relationships with children and young people. - Is solution-oriented, takes initiative, and can work according to our structured approach and method. - Has broad fundamental subject knowledge and good study techniques. - Shares Stiftelsen Läxhjälpen's values and vision of a society where all children grow up with the conditions to succeed in school and shape their own future. Since the job involves working with children, we place great importance on personal suitability. Providing an extract from the police's criminal record register to the employer is a legal requirement for working with children and young people. Differences between schools, where you live, where you come from, and what your parents do increasingly determine how likely you are to succeed in school. Stiftelsen Läxhjälpen is a non-profit foundation that operates where it is needed most. Homework Help is free for students, and homework helpers' salaries are financed through support from the business sector and the public sector. Homework Help is a concrete intervention that addresses one of Sweden's biggest problems today - increasingly more young people are not succeeding in school and risk being excluded from society. Carefully selected, paid university students help young people with their studies two evenings a week and are also positive role models and mentors. Since our founding in 2007, we have developed a structured approach and a clear goal - to raise grades and help students advance to upper secondary school. We currently operate in over 90 schools including Stockholm, Södertälje, Västerås, Norrköping, Göteborg, Landskrona, Umeå, Sundsvall, Uppsala, Gävle, and Malmö.
