Job description
- Tutor Doctor is looking for an experienced, professional tutor to work one-on-one with a high school senior in South San Francisco who's taking a required government class. The student is visually impaired and uses assistive tools, including her iPhone and Meta smart glasses, to read and access materials.

- Sessions are once a week, in person in South San Francisco. The schedule is firm, since the family wants sessions right after school with a short break:
- Monday or Wednesday at 2:30/3:00 PM, or
- Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday at 3:30 PM
- Please only apply if you can reliably commit to one of these time slots.
