The selected teacher will facilitate learning sessions for a cohort of approximately 20-25 learners and ensure strict adherence to the study's instructional and research protocols.\nThis role is ideal for an educator who values evidence-based practice, can operate within a highly structured environment, and is skilled at guiding learners through questioning and coaching rather than direct instruction.\nKey Responsibilities\n1. Instructional Facilitation and Learner Support\nFacilitate two 40-minute mathematics learning sessions per week over a 12-week period (24 sessions in total).\nSupport learners using the project's standardized Common Help Ladder framework.\nProvide brief, targeted coaching interventions that promote learner reasoning, self-correction, and conceptual understanding.\nLimit learner support interactions to approximately 2-3 minutes per learner to maintain consistency across participants.\nEncourage independent problem-solving by using guided questioning techniques rather than providing direct answers.\nMaintain a positive, inclusive, and supportive learning environment that encourages learner engagement and confidence.\nEnsure all instructional support aligns with approved research protocols.\n2. Curriculum Delivery and Session Management\n Support learning exclusively within the approved Grade 7 or Grade 8 Khan Academy mathematics pathway.\nFollow the prescribed instructional sequence, including topics such as- Proportional Relationships, Equations and Expressions, Linear Relationships. Geometry and Measurement and other approved curriculum topics.\nDeliver all sessions consistently, maintaining the prescribed timing, pacing, and learning conditions.\nRefrain from assigning homework, conducting additional lessons, or introducing unapproved teaching materials.\nEnsure learners remain focused on approved study activities throughout each session.\n3. Research Integrity and Assessment Security\nAdhere strictly to all study procedures, protocols, and operational guidelines.\nMaintain accurate session documentation using assigned participant research identification numbers only.\nProtect learner confidentiality and ensure personal information is not recorded in research documentation.\nEnsure that no AI tools, including Microsoft Copilot, are used within the teacher-assisted study cohort.\nPromptly report any protocol deviations, operational concerns, or incidents that may affect study outcomes or validity.\nSupport efforts to maintain consistency and reliability across all study sessions.\n4. Safeguarding, Ethics, and Data Protection\n Comply fully with all child safeguarding policies and procedures.\nAdhere to all ethical research, confidentiality, and data protection requirements.\n Immediately report and escalate any safeguarding concerns, data privacy breaches or incidents, technical disruptions, research protocol deviations, health and safety concerns.\nCollaborate with project leadership and research staff to maintain a safe, compliant, and learner-centered environment.\nDemonstrate professionalism and ethical conduct when interacting with learners, parents, and project stakeholders.\nRequirements\nDiploma, bachelor’s degree, or equivalent qualification in Education.\nSpecialization in Mathematics, Science, or a related field is preferred.\nCurrent Teacher Service Commission (TSC) registration will be an added advantage. \nProven experience teaching Mathematics at Grade 7 and/or Grade 8 level.\nStrong understanding of the Kenyan Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), particularly Junior Secondary Mathematics.\nExperience supporting learners with diverse learning needs and ability levels.\nPrevious participation in educational programs, pilot projects, or research studies is desirable but not mandatory.\nBasic digital literacy and proficiency in using technology for learning.\nAbility to navigate learning management systems and online educational platforms.\nCompetence in using tablets, laptops, web-based applications, and other digital learning tools.\nComfortable supporting learners in a technology-enabled learning environment","description_format":"text","description_chars":4524,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Property Development","Commercial Real Estate"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-05T06:42:02Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":18,"expected_fill_days":335,"reasons":["conf:0","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-24T06:02:35Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/tatu-city-mathematics-tutor-educational-research-study","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/tatu-city-mathematics-tutor-educational-research-study.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-24T19:01:08Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":27851,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-25T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":8749},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=8749"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftatu-city-mathematics-tutor-educational-research-study"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ftatu-city-mathematics-tutor-educational-research-study"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ftatu-city-mathematics-tutor-educational-research-study"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/tatu-city-mathematics-tutor-educational-research-study\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftatu-city-mathematics-tutor-educational-research-study"}]}
