We are especially interested in candidates with experience in the sciences and/or the arts, specifically chemistry, biology, and/or music instruction (piano, guitar, or violin). About the Role This position goes far beyond tutoring.

Responsibilities Support development of life skills, including: • Social interaction and communication, • Organization, cleanliness, and personal care, • Attention, follow-through, and impulse control (ADHD-related support), • Emotional regulation and coping skills, • Safe and increasingly independent travel within the community Additional responsibilities include: • Providing mentorship in science and/or music, based on your background, • Accompanying the client around the city, including:, • Library-based work or volunteer roles, • Museums, galleries, and cultural events, • Long walks and city outings, • Structured activities and appointments, • Balancing intellectual engagement with clear structure, consistency, and boundaries, • Collaborating with family and other mentors on long-term goals, including exploration of an appropriate career path Ideal Candidate We are looking for someone who is: • Patient, kind, emotionally steady, and observant, • Grounded, sincere, and values honesty and integrity, • Comfortable supporting individuals with autism and ADHD, • Able to provide structure without rigidity, • Calm, consistent, and able to set and maintain boundaries, • Flexible and adaptable, • Comfortable traveling throughout the city and walking for extended periods of time, • Interested in building a long-term mentoring relationship and being part the collaborative community we are building to support client Backgrounds of interest include: • Science (any discipline), • Music (piano, guitar, violin), • Education, psychology, social work, arts, or related fields Prior experience as a Direct Support Professional (DSP), special education professional, tutor, or mentor is strongly preferred. Schedule & Compensation • $30/hour, • 5–10 hours per week to start, with potential for additional hours over time based on availability, fit, and program needs, • Flexible schedule with generally set weekly hours, • Availability needed between 9:00 am – 8:00 pm, including some evenings and weekends, • Occasional shift changes or substitutions may be required, • Start date flexible, • This is a long-term role with opportunities for increased responsibility and expanded hours for the right candidate. Location • Washington Heights / Inwood (near the A train at 181st Street), • Local applicants strongly preferred; long commutes are not ideal for this role Why This Role Matters This is a collaborative, human-centered position focused on helping a gifted but challenged individual build a meaningful, independent life. It can be deeply rewarding for someone who values patience, growth, and connection—and challenging for someone seeking a conventional tutoring job. We are intentionally building a small, sustainable community of mentors devoted to supporting the client’s development while ensuring the work is meaningful, inspiring and sustainable for everyone involved.
