Onboarding Process Explained Step by Step
1. A few high resolution headshots
Please provide a high-quality photo to add to the Brooklyn Math Tutors website. Professional quality photos are recommended.
We're aware it's a bit annoying and kind of silly, but it really seems to make a difference in terms of the first impression of tutors and our business to parents.
Please be sure that the photo is at least 1000px on the smaller side, has good lighting, and is both approachable yet professional. Photos taken with phone cameras generally don’t meet the requirements (ie. selfies).
Please see www.brooklynmathtutors.com/team-and-tutors#/ for examples.
If unsure, please provide a few options for the office team to choose from. If you don’t have any professional photo, please let the office know as well as we might be able to help you get professional headshot by connecting you with local professional photographer and cover part of the expense.
If you'd like to learn more about good headshots, please see headshots page.
2. A Tutor Bio
Tutors bio allows us to give potential clients an idea of who you are when we recommend you as a potential match.
A good bio will be personable, friendly and informative, giving a sense of your personality as well as your experience and credentials.
In the bio, please include the following information:
- Personal Background
- Where you grew up
- Credentials
- Schools you attended and attained Bachelor's and other degrees
- If you have teaching license, please include in your bio
- Test score if relevant and you have a good score in SAT or you've super-scored in ACT
- Your approach to education
- Tutoring Experience
- How many years
- What age group
- Any accomplishment (i.e. 'All my ACT students improved their scores by 3points within 2-4months of working with me')
- Other professions outside tutoring if applicable
- Hobbies
