How it Works

1

Get set to teach

We quickly onboard so kids can learn and you can earn. At Grasshopper Kids, teachers teach what they love to teach, not what they have to teach.
2

Get lots of opportunities

We market you and your experiences, and text you teaching opportunities. Teach on your own schedule, as much or as little as you like.
3

Get paid right away

Teachers are paid the same day they teach. We take care of all the logistics with school groups so you can do what you do best.

I love Grasshopper because I get to share what I'm passionate about, and introduce kids to new things that spark curiosity. Grasshopper allows teachers to share their special something with kids and inspire them to find what they're passionate about!
