Tutors
We are always looking for dedicated tutors to join our team. Tierney Education offers both Peer Tutor and Professional Tutor positions, depending on your experience and background.
Peer Tutors are typically current or recent undergraduates who excelled in the courses they support.
Professional Tutors have advanced degrees or specialized expertise in their subject areas.
You don’t have to be a Penn State student to apply, but familiarity with Penn State courses and student culture is strongly preferred. If you’re passionate about helping others reach their potential, we’d love to hear from you.

Academic Coaches
In addition to tutoring, Tierney Education also hires Academic Coaches to provide one-on-one support for students who need help with organization, time management, and study strategies. Academic coaching goes beyond course content — it’s about helping students build executive functioning skills, develop consistent routines, and take ownership of their learning.
Our Academic Coaches are professionals with backgrounds in education, psychology, or student support services. You don’t need to be a Penn State graduate, but familiarity with the challenges Penn State students face is a plus. If you’re passionate about guiding students to build lifelong habits for success, we’d love to connect with you.
