The terms, before anything else

How you are paid
Hourly, for the hours you teach.
Why there is no figure here
No rate is published, because none has been fixed in advance. It is agreed with you at offer and is set by the subject, the level you would teach at, and how your assessment went — none of which is known before the assessment happens. You will have the figure in front of you before you are asked to commit to anything.
Confidentiality
The engagement is under a confidentiality agreement. The document is shared with you in full before anything is signed. Its terms are not summarised here, because a summary of an agreement is not the agreement.
How you are selected
Through the process that already exists rather than a separate one for this role: a subject assessment set at the classes the role covers, which every applicant takes, then a review of your qualification documents by a person, not a form check. There is an interview where the role calls for one.
Where and how it is taught
Online, in person in Kolkata, or both. Ways a class can run: Online; In person; A mix of online and in person; At the student’s home; At a place you teach from; At an institute.
Who you would be engaged by
Tutor.org.in. There is no registered company name, registered address or named grievance officer to give you yet. When there is, it will appear here rather than being left to the paperwork.

What is expected of you

A command of Sanskrit grammar and of the prescribed texts, and the ability to make translation something a student can reason through rather than memorise — it is taken as a second or classical language, and the paper rewards accuracy over fluency. You would teach it across Classes 6 to 12.

Working command of the published specifications you would teach against — CBSE and CISCE, covering CBSE Middle, CBSE Secondary, CBSE Sr. Secondary and ICSE — and of how each one assesses this subject, which is where they differ from one another. For CBSE that means the marks split every subject carries — an externally set board paper alongside internal assessment run inside the school, 80 marks against 20 at Classes 9 and 10 — and the composition of the paper itself, half of which is competency-focused: case-based, source-based and applied questions rather than recall. Class 10 is now examined twice a year, the first sitting mandatory and the second optional for improvement, which changes when revision has to peak. For CISCE that means the internal share, which is a fifth of the marks in the main ICSE groups and half of them in the Group III subjects, and the fact that ISC papers are set and passed to a higher standard than ICSE ones. Both now have an improvement examination behind them, where the better of the two marks stands.

How you are assessed

  • a subject assessment set at the classes the role covers, which every applicant takes
  • a review of your qualification documents by a person, not a form check

Selection turns on the assessment and the document review above. Nothing else is implied: no background check process is in place yet, and we will not suggest one is.

What this advert does not tell you, and why

  • No figure for the hourly rate, because none has been fixed. It is agreed at offer.
  • No registered entity, address or grievance officer, because none is on record yet. We would rather leave the line blank than fill it with something plausible.
  • No count of the people teaching here, no rating, and nobody quoted saying it was wonderful. None of that would be true today.
  • No promise about how quickly you will hear back. Nobody here has committed to a turnaround, and describing one is how you create one.
  • No background-check claim. That process is not in place, and a page implying it was would be claiming a check nobody runs.

Published on 29 August 2026. This advert runs until 25 February 2027, when it is either re-confirmed or taken down — a window we set for ourselves so that a stale vacancy cannot sit here, not a deadline imposed on you.
