Work as a Homework Tutor on Hisingen!

Do you want to make a difference? Nearly 20,000 students failed to complete compulsory school in Sweden during the 2024/2025 school year. There are schools where 7 out of 10 students don't meet the requirements for upper secondary school. At the non-profit Stiftelsen Läxhjälpen, you contribute your skills and commitment to help more students achieve eligibility requirements with confidence for the future. For the fall semester 2026, we're looking for homework tutors on Hisingen who want to help lay the foundation for a successful school year! We're looking for someone interested in a paid side job while making a concrete social impact. The position is hourly employment in the afternoons/evenings and involves being a homework tutor after school at one of our partner schools. You work in a team of three tutors, all of whom are university students. You'll receive training in and work according to our structured approach. Each homework group consists of 15 students, and together with your colleagues, you're responsible for planning, implementing, and following up on the work. As a homework tutor, you can work either as a regular tutor or as a substitute. As a regular tutor, you work 6 hours per week distributed over two scheduled afternoons/evenings (opportunities for extra substitute shifts available). As a substitute, you work when regular tutors are on leave or sick. The work is performed after school hours in the school's facilities. We're looking for someone who: - Is a university or college student - Has pedagogical ability 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 foundational subject knowledge and good study skills. - Shares Stiftelsen Läxhjälpen's values and vision of a society where all children grow up with the prerequisites to succeed in school and shape their own future. Since the job involves working with children, we place great emphasis on personal suitability. Providing a certificate from the police 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 the likelihood that you'll succeed in school. Stiftelsen Läxhjälpen is a non-profit foundation that operates where it's needed most. Homework help is free for students, and tutors' salaries are financed through support from the business sector and public sector. Läxhjälpen is a concrete initiative addressing one of Sweden's biggest challenges today—increasingly more young people aren't succeeding in school and risk being excluded from society. Carefully selected, paid university students help young people with their studies two evenings a week while also being positive role models and mentors. Since our start in 2007, we've developed a structured approach and a clear goal—to improve grades and help students progress to upper secondary school. Today, we operate in over 90 schools in Stockholm, Södertälje, Västerås, Norrköping, Gothenburg, Landskrona, Umeå, Sundsvall, Uppsala, Gävle, and Malmö, among others.
