Key Responsibilities

- Deliver 1:1 Live Instruction: Conduct engaging, interactive one-on-one online sessions tailored to each student’s learning pace and current skill level.
- Curriculum Execution: Teach foundational programming (Python/Java/C++) to younger learners and advanced Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA) to middle and high school USACO aspirants.
- Problem-Solving & Dry Runs: Guide students through translating complex word problems into clean code, optimizing time/space complexity, debugging, and handling edge cases.
- Homework & Contest Prep: Assign targeted practice problems from USACO past contests, USACO Guide, Codeforces, or LeetCode, and review student submissions.
- Progress Tracking: Provide regular, constructive feedback after sessions to help track student milestones and readiness for upcoming contest windows.

- Competitive Coding Background (Preferred): Prior experience with platforms such as USACO, Codeforces (Specialist/Expert+), CodeChef, AtCoder, ICPC, or strong LeetCode problem-solving experience.
- Teaching & Communication Skills: Excellent spoken and written English. Ability to break down abstract algorithmic concepts into simple, age-appropriate explanations for young learners (ages 7–17).
- Prior Teaching Experience: 1+ years of experience teaching coding, K-12 STEM, or competitive programming in a 1:1 or small-group online setting is a strong plus.
- Schedule Availability: Willingness to accommodate flexible schedule, particularly evenings or early mornings (IST) and weekends, to align with international student time zones (US/Global).
- Technical Setup: A reliable laptop/PC, high-speed broadband internet, HD webcam, noise-canceling headset, and a digital pen/tablet (preferred for dry-running algorithms on a virtual whiteboard).

Compensation & Perks

- Hourly Pay: ₹800 to ₹1,000 per hour, commensurate with your technical depth, demo performance, and the USACO division level you can teach.
