Hello! I used to work as a 3rd grade teacher, and loved it!

Unfortunately, I was given a horrible back injury when breaking up a fight, and it looks like it's permanent.

I've attempted tutoring PT in schools, but even that is next to impossible.

I'm interested in tutoring or teaching online, but I can't seem to find the resources I need. Is anyone else here homebound for any reason, or just teaching out of the house online for convenience??

If anyone knows of any organization that works this way, please let me know! I am, of course, willing to work for peanuts at this point!

I live in Georgia, and we do have an online teaching tool for children, but it is only available for the high school years. I am only certified in PreK-5.

If anyone knows of any organization/website that employs homebound teachers/tutors, please let me know!! Thank you in advance!

Really!?! Sylvan was actually one of the places at which I tutored! I had to quit b/c of the driving and sitting. I never, ever imagined they hire tutors online.

Meaning, the tutors give online lessons??? I will look into that right now. Thanks!!

Yes, I would post a link for you, but because I am newer here I can't quite yet:) Just go to esylvan and scroll down to the bottom left side. There will be a link titled "For Teachers" and the information you need will be there.
